Hi all! For my boyfriend's and my last night in Italy, we are planning on staying in Rome (flying out of FCO). He would rather stay at a place right next to FCO but the places are out of our price range. We would like to not spend more than 30 euros each for a night if possible. Anyway, I was thinking we could stay by the Roma Trastevere train station because there are many trains to FCO and they only take about 30 minutes. Plus, it is looking like we will have one Eurail day left over, and we'll be able to use it on that ride. However, I am having a hard time finding a decent place by that train station. I am also considering staying by Roma Termini because there are also many trains from there to FCO. (I just don't prefer this station because we can't take the Leonardo Express train using our pass & I'd rather just use the pass if we have it. The regional trains take closer to 45 minutes.) Any thoughts or recommendations? Any sites you would recommend where I can find a decent place near Roma Trastevere, or should I scrap that and search nearby Termini? Grazie! :)

Hi! This was a place my best friend and I looked at near Termini, and I've heard great things about it: http://www.the-beehive.com/ What we ended up doing was staying with a wonderful couchsurfer named Marcello who lived 3 blocks from there. If you haven't looked at it yet, and want to stay for free, try www.couchsurfers.org. We had an AMAZING time staying with people, always felt safe. Marcello was an awesome host. Good luck!
