Alessandro was a Lovely host who kindly picked me and my sister from the train station, showed us the apartment and also took us back to the train station to get to the airport when we left. The apartment itself is lovely, very clean and spacious, has most things you would need for cooking and is situated in quite a nice and safe area of rome. The bedroom we stayed in was a little noisy at night, even with the windows closed- but with some ear plugs it was no problem. The mattress on the bed was a little bit hard, but I still slept well most nights. Transport to the city is easy but it does take a little while- however I enjoyed the experience because it gave me a feel of the real culture of rome. There are some fruit stalls outside the apartment in the morning, a little bakery and at night you can order typical roman style pizza from a little pizzeria right near the apartment. All in all this is a nice place to stay. Thanks Alessandro.
