Ester’s home is lovely place to stay!
It takes approximately 45 mins to get to the centre of Rome/ most famous monuments and an hour from Vatican- so if that works for you, definitely choose this place. The metro station is around a 20 mins walk, but you can also get buses which are around 5-8 mins walk or less, depending on how quick you walk. There’s small drinking water fountains pretty much everywhere, including 1 located 2 mins from the house(the water is fab!)
You’ll be living in a lovely 4-room apartment downstairs- all are spacious and just as lovely as on the photos.
Great thing about the apartment is that it stays cool even when it’s super hot outside (due to the place being made in 1925 it has thick walls and high ceilings - decent amount of light inside, some rooms being lighter than the other but that’s ok, rooms are very cozy and have soul- it will make you feel right at home :)
There’s also 2 bathrooms, one as an en-suite so convenient if somebody wants to have a bathroom available close.
Large amount of storage space, there’s also a separate room for clothes storage and ironing,
Apartment full of things like cleaning supplies, dishes and cutlery, pretty much all you need and more. The only thing I haven’t seen was a toaster, but we didn’t see a need to use it on our holiday - you can get fresh bread around easily.
There was some works going on at the neighbours but only for a couple hours a day and usually when we were out anyways so wasn’t much of a bother.
The most important- Ester is the loviest host ever!!!
She welcomed us with a friendliest approach, gave us a little apartament tour and even had some yummy homemade jams and honey prepared for us!(amazing!!) Also some healthy cookies, coffee, tea, too.
She was very patient with us since we didn’t all speak italian but it went pretty seamlessly with some translating apps and all-she’s pretty reachable through messages as well! And will give you a lot of advice on anything needed.
Lovely stay!
