A wonderful host will orient you in Rome and save hours or days or roaming around looking for the main attractions. Also, John was kind to stay up late and check us in as well as leave some food for our first breakfast. I just can't emphasize enough how great the host is! On a side note, this is a perfect location for an affordable vacation in Rome. It's easy to get to downtown (10 min and 1.5 Eur on subway).
