The closest areas to our Faculty of Economics are the following: San Paolo, Piramide-Ostiense, Aventino Testaccio, Marconi, Garbatella, Trastevere.

Because of the size and the traffic of the city the availability of a good bus and underground transport is vital. Be flexible in your demands and be aware that the market offers more shared rooms than single rooms.
In addition, landlords/landladies may expect you to agree to strict rules regarding guests, parties, damage reimbursements, etc. Before signing a lease be sure you understand clearly what you are supposed to do and not to do.
Monthly prices for a single/double room vary from a minimum of € 300,00 to a maximum of € 600,00 depending on the area and on the amenities offered. A deposit is always required. Utilities such as electricity, gas and heating may be extra: make sure you know exactly what bills you may expect. Remember that in Italy bills come every two months. Normally, with a temporary lease, you are not responsible for any other fees, such as building maintenance, water and garbage disposal charges.
Telephone: some student apartments have no telephone. Landlords/landladies fear having to pay huge bills which arrive after students have returned home. This is also why occasionally telephones may be installed only to receive and not to make calls. Don't feel too bad about this. Purchase a telephone card and use public phones which are located everywhere.
Please, note that if you suddenly want to change your room/shared apartment you should inform the landlord/landlady and your flat mates well in advance (at least 1 month before) so to give them time to find a replacement. It will be your responsibility to find a new accommodation.
