My husband and I stayed at the Banana Studio hosted by Fabios amazing family.. Him and his wife were very friendly, kind and extremely helpful. They gave us tons of tips and even had helpful books they made on how to get places in Rome.. There's an amazing bakery across from the studio, a grocery store in the mall which is a 3 minute walk, an the subway was a 8 minute walk. The area is quiet and we came and went all hours of the day and night without bothering anyone... Fabio speaks English and gave us tons of ideas of places to go that weren't so touristy... He answers his messages quickly in case you get lost or need any help.. I can't say enough great things about him and his wife.. It's a perfect place to stay off the beaten path.. Highly recommend..
