I had a wonderful time at Emma's place! She and her family were really kind to me, they were great hosts and made sure everything was great.
It was a true pleasure to stay there and I really really enjoyed it.
Thank you Emma and also Ranieri for the nice talks and for welcoming so much.Best wishes

I spent the most wonderful 2 months at Emma and Ranieri’s lovely home with their adorable son Giulio, as well as having the pleasure to meet Emma’s sister Rosaria on several occasions.
From the moment I arrived, Emma welcomed me into her home with open arms, she took me on a walk and introduced me to the area, Piazza bologna. The location is ideal - it isn’t too central and touristic but there is lots to do for young people and is only 15 minutes to the centro storico on the Metro. There are lots of good bars / restaurants around the Piazza and in the area.
The apartment itself was always kept clean and cozy - I got my own room and private bathroom with a balcony, so always had my own space if I needed a nap or something :) !
Emma is extremely generous and friendly. On several occasions, she invited me to join the family for dinner, which was always a pleasure trying her delicious Italian cooking and spending time chatting with the family. During my stay I also enjoyed meeting some of Emma’s students who came over for their lessons or dinners.
Since I was doing an internship in Rome to practice my Italian, being immersed in an Italian-speaking family was extremely helpful for me - Emma was always willing to clarify any language questions that I had, and was very patient with my bad Italian, even printing off some exercises for me on areas I wasn’t too confident in.
All in all, I really couldn’t recommend Emma’s Homestay enough to anyone that is looking for somewhere to stay in Rome, whether that be for tourism / work / study, or any kind of stay. Emma and her family are so kind, warm and welcoming, and it was always a pleasure to come home to their friendly faces after work, and to the adorable Giulio!
Grazie mille Emma!

I loved my time staying with Emma. Her home is beautiful, clean, and bright. My room was really nice and having my own bathroom was great. The bed was very comfortable which is really important.
Emma and her boyfriend were so welcoming, friendly, and helpful. We had many informative and fun conversations. She offered me breakfast every morning and was always making sure I had everything I needed. She even walked me to the Metro and showed me how to get around the city which was really great. I felt like I was staying with old friends or family. I would highly recommend choosing Emma as your homestay.Host reply
Thanks Donna, it was a very pleasure to host you. :)
