My 2 friends and I were simply delighted to stay for 3 nights at the fantastic Casa Vacanza Ricordi Romani recently – it ticked ALL the boxes, and then some;
The apartment was spacious, beautifully furnished, fully equipped, spotlessly clean and had very efficient air-conditioning throughout – much appreciated in the 34⁰+ heat of Rome in July!
Maria Pia’s daughter, Isabella, was easily contactable and was waiting with a warm welcome for us after our unavoidably late arrival (due to delayed flights ☹), having stocked the fridge with nicely chilled liquid refreshments and providing a variety of snacks & other goodies for us. She very kindly explained everything we needed to know, and provided us with 2 sets of keys and a couple of useful maps of the immediate area and further afield.
The apartment itself was very well located for public transport (Number 2 tram to the centre a minute’s walk away, and Mancini bus station less than 5 minutes’ walk), and extremely convenient for anyone attending a concert/show at the Auditorium/Parco della Musica, as we did ourselves on Monday evening (to see Rufus Wainwright – bliss!). The apartment was situated in a quiet and safe area, off the main roads, and there were numerous shops (including a superb Pasticceria (Artesano Roma, via Giulio Romano 12, quartiere Flaminio) – freshly-baked cornetti (croissants) for breakfast!), bars, and restaurants within easy walking distance.
We really enjoyed staying here and would not hesitate to book again on a return visit – very good value for money and HIGHLY recommended to one and all.
