I can't say enough great things about my stay with Paola and her family. The apartment is in a vibrant residential neighborhood only a few minutes from the city center by the (very safe and efficient) Roman metro system. We were given specific instructions to the building and welcomed heartily despite our late arrival. The room is furnished simply but comfortably for two people, and the accompanying bathroom is excellent. Paola was always available to answer our questions, and when she struggled with English, she would gladly help us with the aid of Google Translate. We were sad to leave but look forward to returning some day. Highly recommended!
