Fabio’s place is about a 5 minute walk from Termini station, and 3 minute walk from Santa Maria Maggiore. In fact, the apartment is perfectly placed for all the sight seeing spots! We walked everywhere except for the Vatican, but this was only because we knew we’d be doing a lot of walking whilst we were there.
Fabio was very responsive to messages, sent us a map of the where the apartment is located and the best ways to get from the airport to the apartment. Fabio met us, gave us the keys and also a map of the city with recommendations and suggestions.
The apartment itself suited our needs. It was very spacious, the decoration is basic, and we thought it could do with a little bit of attention. It wasn’t ‘cosy’. The kitchen area was very small. This said, the bathroom was lovely and had the best shower! The bed was huge and comfortable, and the bedroom was very quiet at night with little to no outside noise, which was perfect.
The apartment is situated in the Termini area, which compared to other areas of Rome we thought was a little run down. We felt perfectly safe at all times, but would advise keeping your wits about you.
For us, the best points about the apartment was its location, that it’s quiet at night, and the shower. It was an excellent base for exploring the city! :)
