Loved staying there.
It's a small and basic space, but everything you need is there and functioning – and when you want to hang out and relax, you'll be spending most of your time on the large rooftop terrace anyway, sitting at the big table, enjoying the fantastic view over the tree tops of the San Lorenzo cemetery all the way to the mountains in the east.
Emiliano and Ludovica are great hosts, warm and welcoming. They live in the same building and needed access to the terrace to hang laundry from time to time, but they were really nice and respectful about it.
The area is very lively, lots of bars and restaurants, but Emiliano and Ludovica’s home is in a very small street more to the side of the neighbourhood – so you always have the choice: it's only a few steps between relaxing peacefully on the terrace and going for a drink.
Pigneto, another great place to go out, is not far (about ten minutes by tram). I didn’t do much sight-seeing, but you can get pretty much everywhere from either Verano (big bus/tram station around the corner) or Termini (about 20 minutes by foot, 5 by bus).
