This apartment met all our needs, lovely and clean, easy to find from the train (when you can figure out the maze that is Tiburtina station!) and was surrounded by some good local shops- a nice authentic neighbourhood. It was great because it was a little further out than the inner suburbs where there are millions of people but only 5 stops to the main central station in Rome (8 mins walk to the station and 10mins on the metro gets you to the centre of town).
It was nice because the little touches of the apartment meant we weren’t living out of our backpacks- we felt like Romans for the week :)
