We enjoyed our stay in Rome here.
PROS:
Sean, the host was very helpful and nice. He allowed us to leave our luggage early in the common area which was awesome!
The location was UNBEATABLE for visiting many of the must-see sites by foot. You are steps away from so much. The neighborhood feels very safe day and night.
The system of entry by link on your phone was great because we were a group of 8 that were coming and going at different times. No key sharing was needed.
It was nice for our group to all have their own in-suite bathrooms.
The place was clean and comfortable in the bedrooms.
CONS:
For a group traveling together there is no place to sit and visit in the common area. That area is simply a small entry area and a small "kitchen" area with kettle etc.
The biggest con was the old plumbing situation. You are instructed to not flush your toilet paper.
There are pumps or something behind the toilets. Every time you flush it makes a REALLY LOUD sound. As well, all during your shower it makes the sound every few seconds. That is really annoying to the person who is trying to sleep while someone else is up during the night going to the bathroom or showering early.
One of the showers drained really slow so the water had to be turned off and on to keep it from flooding.
You must carry your luggage a floor and a half. Nice stairs but just a heads up for those who can not do that.
OVERALL: If you are okay with the cons listed above this is a great place to stay.
