I booked this place because it had large rooms, in Travestere, and had an authentic charm, and I received what I was wishing for. When I started to read reviews, I noticed many were from 1 review reviewers and I got worried that I wouldn't be all that I expected. Well, I was wrong. This Guest House was excellent! We were in Rome for 4 nights, in the heat wave. Asthmatic Canadian that I am, this was very difficult for me. I was very happy that our room had very good functionning AC. It also affected our visiting plans, so we spent a lot of time at the House. The House itself is a family heirloom full of memories for its owners. It has a large common room, and equally large rooftop. We were very grateful to be able to use both as some evenings, we were too tired and hot to go back out again and ordered in our supper to enjoy at the House. It is very stately, and decorated with the owners amazing amazing art from their mother. She has a true gift. The online descriptions of the rooms were very realist and accurate. The room was exactly as I expected. It was a large room set up with 2 twins beds as we requested. The beds and linen were confortable. We had a view of the garden, it had a nespresso machine and kettle (bring your coffee or tea) and a small fridge and safe. The small fridge had a few drinks and snacks for purchase and I did quite enjoy the prosseco they sold at a good price! There was a very comfy sofa chair where I spent several hours reading with my prosecco while my daughter slept. The bathroom was a good size with giant miror. It also had an old lady's make-up mirror which I appreciated! ;-) and plenty of counter space for our products. If there is one suggestion I would do is to put a step in the bathroom to access the bath for shorties like me! It was very clean. I was glad to stay in this area. It is authentic, beautiful beyond words, local and calm. Even taxis we took mentioned how great a place this was when we arrived. On regular 33 celcius days, the 10 min. walk down and up is easy, as you have different path options. It is great to walk with locals and get to the bottom part of Travestere for a meal or aperitivo. When in the 40ies, I admit that we have taken a taxi back up, between 11 and 18 euros depending on where we started from. We were glad to have the option, but in 'normal' weather, the walk is pleasant and safe. Due to the weather, we were often out early in the AM so we missed the opportunity to have breakfast with the hosts and other guests, but hopefully another stay. Stefano and Fabrizio were so welcoming and sweet. Communication with them was easy from booking to departure. They made our stay so enjoyable. Thank you both!
