Book this room before it is gone! I had the pleasure of staying at Maris this month and can not suggest staying here enough. I enjoyed it so much, I reorganized my entire trip to Italy to extend my stay at Mari's in Rome and will absolutely reserve this room again for my next stay in the eternal city.
-LOCATION! Perfect location for your first trip to Rome! Many of the main attractions (Pantheon, Colosseum, Trevi, Vatican, etc.) are within a 15-30minute walk. It was refreshing to not need to take trains and buses during my stay. The charming historic neighborhood also has countless restaurants, shops, cafes, and a few grocery stores within a very short walk. There is also a self service laundry mat within a 10 minute walk where you can wash and dry within an hour for 10euros.
-THE SPACE: The room was absolutely spotless! The sheets were fresh, the shower was hot, the wifi worked perfect, and as many other reviews mention, the bed is extremely comfortable. As a solo female traveler I also felt extremely safe locked behind 4 doors. There are two separate codes to get into the apartment building at street level, and two more doors locked to get to the room in the apartment. The neighborhood is also well lit at night and very safe.
-THE HOST: Mari was a phenomenal host and a just overall wonderful person. Her communication was excellent. She was extremely responsive via messages and speaks great English. Mari also gave me several suggestions on where to eat near main attractions. If you have time like I did, try them all! You will not be disappointed!
Thank you Mari for your wonderful hospitality and allowing me to extend my stay in your beautiful home :)
