I entered expecting a host, and found a friend. David is outstanding: so friendly, genuine, easygoing. He is so easy to talk to, and willing to have long conversations and share dinner.
He has heaps of food suggestions to take you away from the overpriced tourist fare. His place is excellently located: it’s not in the tourist city centre so it feels much more local, safe and affordable, but it is 4 minutes walk from the metro so extremely easy to get to places.
The flat is sparkling clean, especially the bathroom. It feels like a true home. The room was also bigger than expected: it is snug and cosy and well decorated, not a bland shoebox.
I recommend staying here for an authentic Roman experience, something sadly hard to find.
