Accommodations are great. It was clean and as discribed. The home has 3 air conditioners, which worked great. And the host was friendly and helpful.
The only downsides are that this home is a bit far away from downtown Rome. If you don’t mind taking public transportation then it’s not a big deal. The walk from the home to the bus is 5-10 mins. The bus to the train station is about 5 mins. The train to the city center, depending on where you get off, is 30-45 mins. If you plan to be out most of the day you want to be sure you’re on the train and back to catch the last bus (back to the home) which leaves around 10:30pm/2230. If you miss that bus, the walk from the train station to the home is about 30-40mins. I recommend buying your metro pass prior to checking into the home, if possible - I’m not sure there’s a place to buy a metro pass near the home or bus stop; although, the bus driver will not make sure you have a validated pass when you board, it’s a bit of a trust system, so they’ll just let you on. We did not want to risk it so we had to walk to the train station the first day.
Additionally, the neighbors can hear practically everything and the tolerance for noise (laughing, talking, music, etc.) at night is low.
The only places to dine that are within a resonable walking distance is an old western themed restaurant - food was great. And McDonalds... both are right next to the bus stop. There is also a supermarket across the street from those two places... practically right behind the bus stop.
Overall we enjoyed our stay.
