Staying at this home close to the Colosseum made for a truly special and authentic experience. Valentina is a super helpful and gracious host who answered any questions immediately. She also made a point to see me in person my second day in the unit. The bedroom I rented was exactly as described and in the pictures. The room was very clean and definitively quaint with all the rustic furniture, which makes for a unique experience. The small, but sufficient kitchen for one traveler is clean and well-stocked. The shower is bit small for someone my height, but didn't present a problem. There were shutters that should be lowered to give total privacy to my room. The unit is located insider a private and gated patio that opens to a quiet street. Very secure and safe, next to some sort of army or like complex. There are one or two other homes in the patio, but I never saw anyone during my stay. The units are in the backyard of a monastery, or something alike, which was once the visiting place for Michelangelo, according to Valentina. One thing I didn't understood from the description in Airbnb is that this is a two bedroom unit that is shared with other visitors that are using the other bedroom. There are two bedrooms each with a private bathroom and a kitchen in between the tow bedrooms. I misunderstood and thought the owner lived there when I booked. Although this didn't present any problems for me, I was a bit confused when I arrived. The other travelers I met were kind, quiet and cleaned after themselves. This home is within a 10 minute walk to the Colosseum, a 5 minute walk to breakfast and dinner places and 5 minute walk to pharmacies and grocery stores. I would definitively stay there again and would bing my family with me. Valentina really went out of her way to make me feel welcomed.
