I will start this review by first saying that Gerald and his place is absolutely amazing! Even before booking he was great, he responds very very fast! Overall Gerald was always willing to help and even marked out a whole map of Rome telling us what things we should see. He is very knowledgeable about Rome and pretty much knows how to get anywhere! When we asked he even showed us a bit of Rome himself, he is so much fun to hangout with. His instructions to get to his place are very easy, found it no problem. His house is lovely, the pictures are very accurate, I personally think the place is even bigger than the pictures suggest! The house is newly renovated and gorgeous! The bed is very comfortable and the room is stocked with fresh towels. The bathroom as well as the whole place is extremely clean. He makes the house feel like it is your own, he respects your privacy as well as is there if you need him. He provides you with yogurts, bread, milk, cereal, pasta noodles and a bunch of other things! Other reviews suggested the neighbourhood was not very safe for females but I do not think that is true. As two young girls I felt quite safe. It may appear at night time a little rough but that is not the case, it is full of nice little bars, restaurants and fun people! You must go to a little restaurant called Porchettoni's, the food and service is so local and wonderful. My favourite part of staying at Gerald's was that it was a great break from all the tourist stuff! We were able to have a very local experience and see a really interesting side of Rome. I will definitely stay here again if I come back to Rome, and I recommend this place to everyone! I honestly think he charges too little for this amazing house, it is a superb deal that you should jump on. I am very happy to of met Gerald, such a nice person. Could not have asked for a better trip! Thanks Gerald for everything, hope to meet again :)
