Tom is the *BEST* kind of AirBNB host, especially when hosting someone from outside of the country with limited to no skill in speaking Italian. Tom, if you will let him, will gladly become your best friend in Rome while you are staying there. He showed me around the neighborhood, gave me the inside scoop on where to eat, where to buy groceries, and told me about cool things that mostly only locals know about. He will ensure that you get to experience Rome in a way that is not like most tourists. Additionally, his accommodations are clean and very comfortable. I spent a week in a hotel before staying in Tom's AirBNB, and I wish I has ONLY stayed in Tom's AirBNB. The experience was better and more comfortable than the upscale hotel I spent a week in.
