I rented Silvia's apartment for 3 weeks and I was glad that I choose it. That's why I am still staying at her place for another 3 weeks...
Garbatella , were apartment is situated , is very nice , very quiet . Apartment is a little far away from Garbatella metro station ( about 1km) so if you need to get to the metro you have to know. It is a bus which help you if is coming..Public transportation in Rome is not the best. There are shops arround ( Carrefour near metro station and a local Toudi much closer) which were indicated by Silvia's son , there are places to eat .
About the apartment: it is very clean, what you see in pictures is accurate, is on ground floor , very secured, has everything you need for a long stay. Heating is on central operation and is turn on about 15:30 until 23 . For me personal, because I worked sometimes during night it was a problem, but Silvia brought a radiator and I used also AC during the day. Linen and towels were changed every week .
