		<description>I totally agree with your point that Rome can be completely affordable. It depends on how you travel the beautiful city.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s true Sid.  Rome can be completely affordable.  It all depends on how you travel the beautiful city.  

Bella Roma!!!</description>

		<description>Enjoyed reading this.. I do love traveling but it&#039;s quite expensive. Never expected ROME would be this inexpensive, was expecting a heavier charge.. oh, well :)</description>

		<description>Thanks for the great ideas and feedback. 

As for the question about staying at a cheaper hotel to get a private room, we did that sometimes too.

While traveling the two of us will often investigate our options of where we can stay.  Sometimes, staying at a hostel simply gave us better options:
-walking distance to everything
-a kitchen for cooking
-a cheaper place to stay (more $ for transportation, etc)
-community space to meet people from all around the world

When it comes to European backpacking in general the season at which you travel will often dictate the price you will pay.  In addition, if you are showing up in town the same week as a national festival or other huge holiday, sometimes any bed is a good one.  

Thanks for the great ideas.  Ciao bacio!</description>

		<description>i think for Euro80 a night you could find some deal also for a double room. maybe worth it to check our some b&amp;b which you could find also around the city center and offers through the web</description>

		<description>Thanks for sharing all the details. There are not many accurate posts like this.

With two of you doesn&#039;t it make more sense to rent a cheaper hotel and get a private room?

My wife and I stayed in the same area of Rome in a decent hotel that had a free gourmet dinner for two included for about 80 Euros per night. 

My wife and I have never stayed in a hostel just because the costs are usually similar when you have to pay for two beds.</description>
