Angelo's apartment matched our expectations. It looks just like in the pictures and is in a good area. It takes about 13 minutes to walk to Ottaviano Metro Station near St. Peter's Basilica.
It costs 1.5 euros to go by the metro per person within central Rome.
The apartment is otherwise within walking distance to many of Rome's sights and the city center.
The apartment is on the second floor and has a small balcony where there is just room for a chair. The bed in the bedroom is comfortable and there is a good wardrobe. The bathroom is small but functional and there is a good washing machine available. In the kitchen there is everything you need.
The only negative we thought was that it was a little bit loud when the neighbor on top played music and walked heavily over the floor sometimes.
In the immediate area is a good bakery, Bonci that sells bread, cakes and pizza. A few small food stores are also in the area and across the street are the large flower market, Mercato dei Fiori.
500 m from the apartment is the large indoor market with everything you want to eat, Mercato Trionfale. Three minute walk from the apartment is Gelateria Lamotti with good icecream.
The communication with Angelo was quick and pleasant. We received many good tips from him and his friend when we checked in. This was our second week in Rome so we found some new gold grains that we had not experienced before.
Our favorite was the orange garden, Giardino degli Aranci on one of Rome's hills. Quiet, free and with a great view. Ok to bring picnic food with you. Do not miss it!
We discovered a good little new restaurant near the apartment called Galo, well worth a visit.
It is smart to take a taxi from and to the airport. But make sure they are the white 35 / 70.it cars with fixed prices to the airports. Full car and baggage costs 48 euros between Rome city center and Fiumicino airport. Rome city center and Ciampino airport (Ryan air) cost 30 euros.
We would definitely stay in Angelo's apartment again the next time we go to Rome. October was a great time to visit Rome great weather and not quite so much tourists.
