Ernesto is a very welcoming and bright host. He does a very good job with his 'together as one' program, and he dedicates a lot of time to providing information, services, and fun for the guests. We enjoyed talking with him, he is a great guy. We were a little worried at first staying with other guests in the room, but we soon discovered that they were very polite and friendly. The house was well decorated and modern, it is well tailored for young visitors. The area is very central, although getting around Rome in general is not very easy. Many times it's faster to walk than to take the bus system, and in central areas they pack tourists and locals into the busses like sardines. Luckily it's pretty easy to walk from the house, or catch a cab if necessary. We would recommend anyone staying here who wants to explore rome and meet new people.
