Anyone Going To Be In Rome This Summer?

Hi guys, I've been away for a while for various reasons.... anyway, I'm re-posting my usual offer. If anyone is going to be in Rome this summer and is in need of a room please contact me. I will be in the States over the summer, but rent goes on! So I'm hoping that someone would want to take my room while I'm gone, and help a poor college student while at the same time paying less than what a hotel would cost. The room will be free in July and August.

 

In short, it is a double room with 2 twin beds (to clearify, my roommate will be gone too), located on (as in 50 feet from the door) the A-line subway stop (Baldo degli Ubaldi) 3 stops from the Vatican.... tons of other busses near by to get to Piazza Venezia etc. several night busses too, just a hop skip and jump from the train stations St. Peter's and Valle Aurelia and a 15 min subway ride from the central station Termini. It's probably one of the best locations to stay for tourists in the whole city. Plus it's really quiet at night. The appartment is shared with a very nice (and extremely neat and clean) lady from Ecuador, who has her own room and works all day. You would have use of the kitchen (with a private fridge) and the washing machine. The bathroom is shared, but is kept very clean. The supermarket is just across the street, so you could avoid eating out all the time and save some money on meals.  

 

Message me if you are interested and we can work something out cost-wise. I'm flexible because if no one takes the offer, I'm still paying! If anyone is into sharing a room, there will be a free bed in June too because roomie is leaving, but I'll still be here. 

 

Please consider!

 

Thanks!

I wish I could help because I really want to go to Rome, but I'm a poor college student, too.  Hopefully, someone will take you up on your offer.  :)

This sounds amazing. I may have need to go to Rome for my research, but I'm not sure when that will happen. I'll definitely keep you in mind though as I'd love to help!

Hi :) I spoke to my supervisor and unfortunately won't be travelling that way yet - though may be doing so next year. Sorry I can't take up this amazing offer, but I hope you find someone!

I was thinking I might, but I'll not have much time in August to head over to Rome.... I might do so during the fall semester, though, if it's allowed by the study abroad program (they might not want me to go to cities they don't have a base in, I know the people I'm studying with in August don't) and I have the time. Is there any chance you'd be able to help me find somewhere to stay in the fall?

Update: I ended up spending all of my money for Rome buying tickets to visit nuns before I leave the US. So.... I can only go to Rome if I come into another small fortune and probably someone who wants to travel with me.

Well let me know how that small fortune idea works out for you. If it is successful, please put me next on the small fortune distribution waiting list. ;)
