Iliena has been a perfect hostess. The room was as described and for the cost it has been perfect, if not more. If on the small side, it had everything needed and promised. I found it reasonably quiet, but then I do sleep like a log. The pizzeria underneath does THE BEST carbonara.
On the area, I would follow other reviewer's advice and NOT arrive from the Termini area, especially at night. Use the Manzoni metro it's possibly nearer and definitely safer. I came that way once and was very uncomfortable, which is very rare.
