Nicolo is a great host, always replies to your queries and concerns. We found the location to be great for access to Rome's metro and bus services. The downside to this location is the noise from the street below. It starts at 5:30 am. Will always remember the sound of ambulance sirens (there are two hospitals nearby). Shops, restaurants and services are nearby on the street and within easy walking distance. We spoke little Italian but everyone was friendly and engaging. The streets are not clean, lots of garbage etc., but I guess this is common throughout Rome. The area was very safe, even late at night, very few migrants compared to tourist areas in Rome. We spent four weeks here, exploring Rome and nearby areas. It allowed to us to escape a brutal winter in Canada.
