This was a great Airbnb! There is a tram stop right outside that goes to Termini, which is 14 stops (30 mins) away, where there are tons of buses and trains. There is a very affordable pizza and kebab place a stone's throw away, and the food is pretty good, the kebabs taste particularly unique. There is also a cafe right below which I did not try. The bathroom is clean (though admittedly slightly narrow) and towels and clothes hangers are provided. You can put what you want in the fridge and there is always cold water in it available for you.
The room is air conditioned and spacious. The window has a non removable metal curtain over it so the summer sunlight doesn't scorch your room. There are extra blankets provided in case you need more than just the little one covering the bed. You also get a key to the accomodation, though your room cannot be locked. The host will nevertheless respect your privacy!
The host Silvana is extremely kind and warm. She did not speak English but tried her best to communicate with me and teach me a bit of Italian. She also made sure I knew where or how to get everything I needed in the house and showed concern for my health. I also got some food recommendations from her.
Things to take note of (which are not negative things, just stating for your information):
- The place will be shrouded in darkness all the time, even the walking spaces, and you only turn on the lights when you need them (as in the host is firm about lights).
- The bed is 2 single mattresses put together, not a queen size mattress.
- You need to ring the main door to get inside to the actual house/room. Not an issue for me but would be good to know about and let the host know if you intend to stay out for late night activities.
- The place is accessible enough but it took a few transport changes to get to the main attractions of Rome. Once again, not an issue for me, given my budget, just putting it out there.
Overall a comfortable place for my 5 nights stay!
