I am traveling with my parents both in early 50's and my boyfriend and I are both in late 20's. We are going to Rome in October. My father is concerned about the noise b/c the b&b is near the Termini Station. I have read nothing but positive things about them online, but nothing about the noise. We are getting read to confirm our reservations, but I was just wondering if anyone has happened to stay there and what their experience was like.
Thanks!!
Michelle,
Not to sway you to stay otherwise, because I have never stayed there, BUT if you happen to have a few extra days in Rome and want to get a fresh taste of the Italian countryside, check out Flavor of Italy B&B (http://www.flavorofitaly.com/). It is run by a American born (fluent in English), Italian (Wendy Holloway), who lives about 40 minutes from the city (by train). She teaches culinary classes, gives tours, wine tastings, and runs a bed and breakfast with her family. I hope you enjoy Rome and get a chance to get out of the city and explore a bit!
Do not know about the noise near the Termini, but I would suggest staying closer to the historical center. My favorite area is near Piazza Navona - you can walk everywhere from there. The only time we have to get on a bus is going to and from the Termini (and we are older than your parents).
