Marzia is the BEST host! She’s very accessible and gives you a map and recommendations on where to go/what to do in Rome...
The room is exactly as pictured - you have your own entryway so you don’t use the “main” door and risk disturbing the rest of the house on your way in and out. The neighborhood is extremely safe and as a solo female traveler I never felt unsafe even when walking home at midnight..
Her place is an 8 minute walk to St. Peter’s Basilica and within 20 min walking distance to all the other goodies (Spanish Steps/Trevi Fountain/Pantheon etc)
Marzia is a FANTASTIC host and if I ever visit Rome again I will make sure I stay with her!
