I would recommend Laura's place to anyone looking to be in the heart of Rome immersed in local culture. The area felt safe, welcoming and in close proximity to many walkable places like the Coliseum. The house is honestly more beautiful than expected. The bedrooms are gorgeous. I stayed as a part of IMPACTdmv Inc. 1st Annual International Expedition Scholarship Program with (5 college students...4 girls!!)and it NEVER felt like we were on top of each other. We all actually wished we could've stay another week or three lol. It really felt like home. The water pressure and temperature is perfect. That imeans a lot to me. I was nervous but beyond pleased with the shower every night, even as multiple people took showers simultaneously. We are not natives but we still managed to navigate the appliances (all of which worked well).
Laura is very timely and responsive. She even helped us locate covid testing and arranged our travel from the airport. One thing I loved was the home tour she gave us. The students loved that and it's honestly one of our favorite memories.
The best thing she did was recommend Susannetta, the trip planner, as she made the trip memorable and easy.
This house truly made the 1st IMPACT International Expedition Scholarship program perfect. We can only hope to find a place as nice next year!
