My family and I stayed in Mara’s place for less than 24 hours as my mother was heading to the airport in the morning and my sister and I were continuing on with our travels, therefore, we didn’t have much time to take advantage of the place or tour around the neighborhood. Maras place is in a wonderful location if you are looking for a lively spot with bars and restaurants near by (all along the same street or around the corner). It was clean and the beds were comfortable. It didn’t have air conditioning but each room had ceiling fans which made it cooler. It had a lift in the apartment which we greatly appreciated, as the apartment was on the forth floor. We weren’t able to get a train back to Rome that arrived earlier than 10 pm, but Mara was nice enough to accommodate and leave a lockbox outside the door. She was also kind enough to offer to take my mother and her friend to the airport for less than what a taxi would cost, which made my sister and I feel very comfortable. The only thing I would tell people is that because of the location, it was a bit noisy in the evening. We were there on a Saturday night so it may be different during the week. Also since there wasn’t AC in the apartment, we had to sleep with the windows open, which didn’t help with the noise. Luckily, my family and I are pretty deep sleepers so this wasn’t too much of an issue, but just something to keep in mind. We would recommend this place to anyone who wants to be in the midst of the action in a great part of Rome!
