This place and the owner, Gabriella, were perfect. She was extremely helpful and kind. The building is a cool authentic Roman building in an authentic residential neighborhood, but just a 10 or fifteen minute walk from the Colosseum and the Forum. I walked the whole city from the location, but if you don't want to walk, there is a metro station that will get you anywhere on the corner. In this neighborhood, it seems like every time you turn a corner, you come across ancient Roman history. If you want to have a local type rome experience, yet still be close to all the historical sights, this place is perfect. Thank you Gabriella!🙂

Old school
Great location. The best part! Gabriella was helpful and friendly. That’s a plus. Though our arrival was late and outside the checking in period, she was gracious to us. If you don’t like sharing bathrooms then you won’t like this place. It’s an older bare bones place kind of charming old school European style. It feels like you’re in an old movie set. renovation may bring the old place back to it’s original glory.

The host, Gabriella, was great. The location was convenient but noisy and didn't always feel safe. The bed was OK. The toilet didn't flush properly, it was shared with another room (I understood it was private) and the paint on the ceiling was peeling.

This property is very accommodating and the owner is very nice! The location alone is worth the cost, we were able to walk most of Rome on foot because of how close this property is to everything. We will definitely stay here again, very authentic experience in Italy which is exactly what we were looking for :)

It should be on the description that it’s SHARED BATHROOM. No TV, No blankets, No complementary toiletries. The landlord lives there which is so uncomfortable, I felt like an unwelcome guess. She asked me what was wrong with me because I couldn’t open the door! Only good thing is location……

Stayed for 3 nights, great experience.
We got the first room on the right aka the King bed (two twins pushed together). I had no problems with the room, my boyfriend however didn’t find the bed comfortable. We were given a well working fan which did the job considering there’s no AC. The bathroom was clean but in need of maintenance. The toilet didn’t work too well, to go number 2 you need to poor extra water down it with the provided bucket. That is not abnormal in Europe. Shower is tiny, it only shut off on me once but I had no problem turning it back on and there was always hot water. Hairdryer and fridge was provided but shared. Only ran into another person staying there once, and nobody took up the bathroom for an abnormal amount of time. The shared bathroom really wasn’t a problem as long as the door was kept open when not in use. Host was kind and responsive, ask to see her dogs they are sweet and adorable! 10am walk from coliseum and train station, 30+ min walk from Vatican City.

Great location
We stayed for 6 night at casa white… we stayed in the second room. Ths owner was very nice and sweet. She made sure that the bathroom was cleaned daily and garbage removed as well… provided a mini fridge to store food and snack for all guest staying at the property. The bed was comfy to sleep in and the window view to our room was nice… building elevator is tiny but cute lol. We loved the dog who would be seen coming out of her room for his morning and evening walks. Literally fell In love with him. Would come back to stay

for value for money its excellent a few things its really old ,the room we had was on the main road ,the place is really close to both the train station(10 min walk) metro (5 min walk) colosseum (about 10 -15 walk) so overall it was fantastic - may need a bit of maintenance would be great but for the price it was good
