Carla met us when we first arrived and gave us a good overview of the area. The loft was spacious and convenient to local restaurants and easy access to downtown Rome. It is situated in a nice neighborhood. Although it wasn't the hosts fault, we were kept up the 4 night we were there by noises of birds, dogs, babies and construction. This was surprising because many of the other reviews we read mentioned how quiet the neighborhood is. The main frustration was that we were rushed to pack up and leave early on our day of departure despite being told that we could check out anytime on that day.
