The room was fine. Pretty good space. The check in process was very laborious though. You have to go to a hotel across the street. It was difficult for us to find where to check in. After finally getting through to the host we had to take our huge suitcases up a tiny, ancient elevator. Leaving also proved more difficult than it needed to be. You’re given a set of 4 keys- for a gate, the building, the apartment suite, and your bedroom. We were told to just leave the keys in the bedroom. However, there’s a metal gate outside that you have to go through to enter and leave the premises. We later found out that we needed to use the key to not only enter the gate but also to get out. Thankfully, we realized this before leaving our key in the room. Otherwise we would have been locked out of the building but locked inside the gate and been stuck. We likely could have missed our flight if that happened. I had to stay on the street propping open the gate while my husband ran the key back to the room. I don’t know if the gate is only locked both ways during certain hours but it was locked in the evening when we went out and in the morning when we tried to leave. I had informed the host ahead of our stay that we would be leaving early in the morning and we were told that was fine and weren’t warned about the gate. Overall, it was a cheap room to stay one night in Rome, but I’m not sure it was worth the hassle.
