It was our second time on airbnb but our first time staying in rome. Massimo and his girlfriend Julia stayed also in his appartment. However, this was really no problem being such friendly and helpful hosts. They showed us where to go and how to get to really interesting places - having only 2 days in rome you can't explore all of those beautiful buildings and places. Just a few steps away is the very famous "pompi" - they got really great tiramisu. Although rome having not many metro stations, travelling was no problem. San giovanni or re di roma are only 5 minutes away and driving to termini, the main train station, by metro takes also about 5 minutes. On new years eve we met massimo in the city and it was really an awesome night. if you want to see the capital of italy and have a flat on your own, via astura 2 is the place to go to. Friendly host with a clean appartment almost in the centre of rome - we will come back for sure. And you should, too.
