Marco's flat has got the feeling of tree house, but with artisan tiles in the bathroom and...the garden in which the tree stands is Rome! When I started using AirBnB many moons ago, I was excited to travel by stepping into actual people's actual homes, lived in spaces that made me feel more part of the place I was visiting. Afterall these years, Marco's place is still one of those, literally with his own life written in. You look out of the window, and you see people having extended family and friends eating dinner al fresco - and that is an essential part of Rome and Italy you cannot get in restaurants. The area is connected to a wide range of shops for different budgets, so you can get your main shp from Lidl, and your bits from local sellers. There are 'mercatini' close by for that proper fleamarket experience - need I say more?
