[Idyllchat] what to do with post-checkout luggage?

[Andi Cancelliere]

Hi!  There is a left luggage office on the underground level at the Rome
Termini station.  It should be, if I recall, on the right hand side of the
station (if standing with the main entry behind you) about halfway down
platform 23 or 24 (whichever is the last platform).

Happy travels!
Andi
