A spotlessly clean reasonably quiet room in a very nice residential building on a relatively quiet street. The bed couldn't have been more comfortable and there's a desk and excellent wifi. It's more or less a perfect place to work and a very good place to sleep. You have to enter a hallway shared with the neighboring room to access your private bathroom, but in exchange for that minor inconvenience you're getting a fantastic price on your room.
Irma, the owner of the building, lives upstairs. I only saw her a few times but she's a lovely lady. Paula and Arturo will do everything possible to give you a nice stay, and Arturo speaks pretty good English. I couldn't imagine a more convenient place to live. There's a fantastic coffee shop two blocks away called Drip that opens early, plus you can walk seven blocks to VIKO and get a big and delicious vegan burrito for just 50 pesos! There's also water in jugs or garrafons sold right across the street (Arturo can give you a hand pump), as well as two different laundry services on the block.
If you stay more than a week a housekeeper comes on Friday or Saturday to change your sheets and towels and mop and clean your room and bathroom. I lived here for five weeks and it was a fantastic choice. The North Roma neighborhood offers so much, and it's therefore usually pricey because of all its conveniences, so this apartment is tough to beat when it comes to value.
