Student apartments in Rome for rent

Most rental apartments in Rome are shared among multiple students. In other words, the entire flat is rented, and the expenses are split among everyone who lives there, making it generally more affordable than renting a studio or a one bedroom apartment.

Studio apartments are self-contained units for one person or a couple, with the bedroom, kitchen, and living area in one single, compact space, plus a bathroom.

Student rooms in Rome for rent

In the Italian capital, you can choose between single and shared rooms. Both can be part of private shared apartments or residences, which will influence the available common areas.

Single spare rooms offer more privacy but come at a higher monthly cost, while shared rooms are cheaper. That’s why you’ll need to decide what you prefer, paying less rent per month or having your own space.

Keep in mind that most affordable rooms are typically located in neighbourhoods like San Lorenzo or Pigneto, whereas more expensive options are in more central areas like Prati or near the Vatican City.
