I can really recommend Antonietta's AirBnB to anyone visiting Rome! We loved our experience. This was the first time we stayed in someones home, rather than renting an entire apartment, so naturally we were apprehensive at first. We didn't need to be, Antonietta and her husband are so kind and welcoming, we really felt as though we were part of the family. They were both so friendly and helpful, and went out of their way to help us if we needed anything. We had some really lovely conversations. They are also really respectful and relaxed people, and we really felt free to do our own thing, or to have our space if we needed it.

The room itself is lovely, exactly as it looks. Warm, clean and homely. The bathroom was fantastic, very modern and clean. We also had a kettle in our room so could make tea, and Antonietta provided us with a beautifully served breakfast each morning. It was the perfect base for us to explore Rome.

In terms of location, it is quite far from the historic centre, probably about a 30-40 min walk to the Tiber in the Trastevere district (if you are fit). But we loved the walk and did it often. They stay in a lovely leafy green suburb of Rome, and the walk to the centre is very refreshing as well, and at a point has sweeping views over the city from one of the hills. However if you prefer not to walk (or if you are there in the heat of the summer), there are trams/buses which you can take right to the center. The tram 8, for example, was very convenient for us to take back in the evenings, as it seems to come almost every 10 mins, even in the late evening (9, 10, 11pm). It costs 1.5 EUR for one trip. There are some lovely, more local (less touristy) restaurants in their area, so be sure to try those if you get tired of the touristy restaurants in the historic town.
