Carol’s place is as advertised, and is in a great location that’s close to a lot of Romes main attractions. It’s also very close to the Jewish Ghetto and Rome’s Kosher restaurants if you’re looking to be close to that area.
The self checkin process seemed confusing at first, but was actually pretty self explanatory. Carol was very responsive to communication, but it’s set up so you really can do everything yourself.
A small warning to taller guests though: note that the rooms are dome shaped in the pictures and that the walls curve in. I’m 6’1” and I bumped my head a few times getting close the walls. This is also true in the bathroom, I could not fully stand up straight in the shower without hitting the ceiling.
Despite this quirk, we did enjoy our stay in Rome, and enjoyed the convenience of having a nearby apartment to return to after hours of walking around the city.
