Nicla’s place was very clean. Communication was clear and quick, and check-in was easy. This was a great place for the value, and Nicla is an excellent host, providing a book full of information and suggestions. This was a convenient location for us because we wanted to visit St. Paul Outside the Wall and Ostia Antica before heading to the airport the following morning. If you are hoping for a convenient location for seeing the main sites of Rome, you should note that you will have to take a bus (which was unreliable and a long wait in our experience) or a taxi to get into the heart of the city. If you are looking for good value and don’t mind more inconvenience to get to the historical sites, then this is a good choice. Plenty of groceries and pharmacies nearby, a good bakery for morning cappuccino and pastries down the street, and a clean and well-stocked apartment. There was construction on the building and scaffolding outside our windows when we stayed, which the host can’t help but may be able to let you know if you should expect that. Overall a good spot for the cost and really communicative and thoughtful hosts.
