Giulia's studio is a perfect place to stay in Rome - my boyfriend and I were visiting for the first time and it was a wonderful area to stay in, seeing the Forum every day as we came and went from the building and also to be within a walking distance of so many places to visit. The studio itself is absolutely lovely and Giulia is so warm and welcoming and full of great recommendations if you want them!

Location spettacolare, casa pulita e fornita di tutto il necessario. L’ospitalità di Giulia fa infine la differenza!

호스트님께서 체크인 할 때 직접 나오시고, 숙소 정보와 주변 편의시설, 교통 상세하게 설명해주셔서 믿음이 갔습니다. 주방에도 필요한 모든 게 다 있어서 편했습니다. 와인오프너도 있어요! 긁런덹 숙솕갉격돍 원랡 빍싼덹 걹긹엙 청솕빍삼십율록왉 돍싥셁돍 추갉롥 짉불핽섥 꽭 빍싼방면엙 침댉옆읅롥 작은갥밁갉 몇맑릵 짉낡닭녉욝. 그래도 몇일동안 갥밁 크게 개의치 않고 잘 사용했습니다! 다만 숙소 주변에 트라야누스 원주 라는 곳이 있는데, 거기서 조국의 제단과 유적지 사진 찍다가, 팔찌 파는 흑인들한테 걸려서 무서웠습니다..ㅜㅠ 꽤 많은 숫자의 무리가 있으니까 조심하세요. 그냥 뭐라고 말을 걸든 무시하시는 게 좋을 것 같아요. 주변에 경찰도 없는 것 같더라고요. 그리고 해가 진 다음에 숙소랑 맞닿아있는 포로로마노 쪽에 노숙자분들도 있으니, 그 점도 주의하세요!

Giulia is the nicest and warmest host. In the beginning we had some issues with the $30 cleaning fee, since it wasn’t listed as part of the total cost like most other Airbnb listings, but was in house rules in Italian that I didn’t understand, Giulia was so kind to offer me to cancel my booking. But I liked her place being right next to the amazing Roman Forum so I decided to stay. She also promptly updated the house rules on Airbnb by adding English version.

Giulia waited for us at her flat and offered many local tips. She left us welcoming gifts, — a bottle of wine and a Panettone cake. Upon hearing our really early morning flight she set her alarm clock preparing to driving us to the airport should we have trouble with taxi or the bus to airport were unreliable. She has a big car that can easily accommodate us and our luggage. Fortunately the old myth of Italians always being late was wrong, we found all trains and buses and flights were very on time, even the night buses. But I would highly recommend just using Giulia for peace of mind since I find her very reliable and considerate.

Giulia’s place is very charming and everything was provided for, lots of tour books, power adapters, even a washer though we didn’t use. Bed is big and comfortable too. If only the Moka pot were a bit bigger, the current one can only brew one cup of espresso each time :)

Giulia also has a credit card machine that can easily collect the cleaning fee and tourist taxes instead of us having to pay cash, so I had my Euro cash to tip the tour guides. Her place is a 20 min walk from Roma Termini, 7 min to the Colosseum, and the stunning Roman Forum excavation site is right outside the front door. It is just amazing, so much history and buried glory.

WiFi service was interrupted while we were at the colosseum so it didn’t really impact us , but she immediately notified us and promptly dropped off a hot spot. My new iPhone was stolen at Pisa and could only use a Wifi only iPad afterwards, Giulia went out of her way to make sure we always had WiFi.

Rome is an extraordinary city, we love it so much and thanks Giulia for always being there looking out for us. We felt really being taken care of.
