Lorenzo's place was a great home base for our family to explore Rome. The communication with Lorenzo was always quick and he is super helpful in answering questions and providing suggestions if you want them. The apartment is less than 10 minutes walk from Ostiense station and the Pyramid metro station. There are bus lines from Ostiense too which we found useful in exploring the city. There were also great food options within 10-15 minutes. Gelato at Romana, Alice's, Eataly, and Da Noanti Al 41 were a few of our favourites.
Inside the apartment it was like being at home in so many ways. The apartment has a well stocked kitchen for basic cooking: pots, pans, utensils, coffee machine, toaster, etc. It was nice to be able to have breakfast before setting off for the day or make dinner at home when a day of sightseeing was just too long for our son. Other small touches like having a hair dryer, shopping bags, guide books to peruse, were unexpected but really appreciated. Best of all, Lorenzo's family is so welcoming and you feel like neighbors and friends so quickly! They were so helpful and it was a pleasure getting to know this family. When we come back to Rome, we will happily stay at Lorenzo's place!
