Great experiance! We had some difficulties completely due to our own doing (quite late arrival to the Rome train station) and they actually found us and helped us get to their place. Clean facilities, and you only share with 2 other rooms--sure the room was on the smaller side, but it's Rome! A much better deal than a private room in a large hostel, with friendlier and more accommodating hosts and cleaner, better decorated rooms. Not downtown but for us an easy, enjoyable walk the next morning, would have stayed longer if we didn't already have plans to meet up with family the next day.
