It takes about 30 minutes to travel from the doorstep of La Casa to the closest metro station, but it's very very easy to do so.

The people there are lovely, the rooms are cleaned daily, there is air conditioning, the breakfasts are filling but very simple.

It's just a really nice place to stay and not too expensive. I would thoroughly recommend this place for anyone who is staying in Rome for more than three days, just because it's nice to be able to leave the city behind and be around true Romans instead of just tourists.

Basically, the rooms are fine, not fantastically great or anything, but very clean and serviecable.

It's the neighborhood that really makes La Casa di Asa worth the stay.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11343 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10917 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10917 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10808

For a cheap lunch just come here early, buy a few tomatoes and some foccaccia, stuff them in your bag, and eat them at a Bernini fountain in nearby Navonna while laughing at the fessi (gullible ones) who have paid through the nose to eat tourist junk at the inauthentic cafes.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/3425 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/3423
Augusto is a legendary restaurant with a very limited and traditional Roman menu. There are no frills here - you'll have to share a table with complete strangers, there's only house wine available, and the bill is scrawled on the tablecloth by a rushed waitress who doesn't make a fuss of tourists - but the food is great and punters flock here from all over the city for a proper Roman nosh.

Cassetta opposite lacks the charm and the history of Da Augusto, but the food is similarly authentic and (whisper it) even better. Both places are amazingly cheap, with a three course meal with a litre of wine costing about 30-40 pounds for a couple.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/3423 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/3220 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/3220 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2487 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2487 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2486 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2486 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1344 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1344 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1281 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1281 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/234 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/234
