Thanks to the Via Natale Del Grande flat, the newest entry in our portfolio, From Home to Rome is now managing 6 accommodations in the very-much-in-demand Trastevere area.

It’s inexpensive, it’s everywhere (even off season!) and for the most part (we’re thankful for this change in global trends) it is as […]
The success of such global startups like Airbnb, VRBO or Booking is such that even those who are not the target audience of those giant websites know what they do, and know how to search their databases to search for cheaper accommodation once they have set their sights on leaving home for a well deserved […]
