Fred's place is a bit outside of downtown Rome in a cool area called Centocelle, but a few minutes away from a subway station that puts you anywhere you'd want to go downtown. It's a basement unit which is nice because it's cooler in the summer (rare to find AC in Europe) with a projector system, minibar, kitchen, and queen size bed. The house is behind an electronic gate with a parking spot, so felt super safe both staying and parking my rental there. Would definitely stay again!
