The location is ideal, especially if you want to stay in Trastevere, with plenty of restaurants and bars nearby. Communication with the host was also excellent. She was very attentive, responsive, and helpful throughout our stay.
For the price, we knew we weren’t going to find an amazing or luxurious place, but overall, it does the job and is a good base for exploring Rome. The room was generally clean, but there were a few things that could be improved.
The main issue was the bedding. The sheets and pillows had a noticeable damp/musty smell. I asked the person doing the rooms if they could be changed, and she was very kind and immediately offered to do so. Unfortunately, the replacement bedding had the same smell, so it seems to be an issue with the laundry rather than the cleanliness of the room. It’s a relatively simple thing to improve but would make a big difference.
Also, keep in mind that the bathroom is quite small. I’m not sure if this is normal by European standards, but the shower is particularly narrow, so if you’re a larger person, you may find it difficult to fit comfortably.
Overall, a decent option if you’re looking for an affordable place in a great location and don’t expect luxury. The location and the host were definitely the highlights.
