Elena and Stefano are great hosts. They're communicative, helpful, warm, and friendly. We arrived late in the evening and they were very accommodating with our check in time. It was also very kind of them to pick us up from the metro station.
The apartment is 400m from Valle Aurelia metro station (metro line A), which is 8 stops away from Termini, the main train station. The walk from Valle Aurelia metro station to the apartment is less than 5 mins. The Vatican is a 15-min walk away. The place is good value for money as you can get a 1-day transport pass which only costs 7 euros and explore Rome.
The Japanese and Mexican restaurants downstairs open till late night so you will never go to bed hungry.
Our room is very spacious and clean. Drinking glasses and bottled water are left in our room. The bathroom is tastefully decorated in the style of the old Romans. The balcony where we have breakfast is huge, beautified by many pots of flowers and plants and there is a hammock where you can lie and wind down with a book.
Stefano and Elena prepared espresso, cappuccino, and orange juice for us every morning, along with a wide spread of cereals, bread, etc. The orange juice is juiced from oranges of Stefano's granny's garden. We had the honour of tasting Stefano's superb culinary skills through his gnnochi dish. The tomato base was made by Stefano's granny, coupled with the chilli sauce, which was awesome.
We enjoyed the chats with them every morning. Elena and Stefano would check with us our plans for the day, made sure we know our way, gave us food recommendations, and also check for us the interstate train schedules. They're a great team. Stefano will search the routes and Elena will pen them down in English for us.
We would definitely recommend Elena and Stefano's place to fellow travellers.
Thanks a lot, Elena and Stefano, for the superb stay!
斯德芬奥以及他同伴益莲娜的房子离捷运短距离，可买张无限票看完罗马，非常方便。房子庞大可以容纳大队。另外房子附近还有开得很夜的日本餐及墨西哥餐不怕空肚子睡觉。屋主非常热情，每早会供应早点并帮助安排行程以及给美食，美景的意见。我本身住得很开心，热烈推荐。
