As Lia's home has so many fantastic reviews I will not mention again what has already been said (lovely bathrooms, quirky decor, very clean etc) but I will try to be very specific about why we loved staying here. This place is perfect for a family with older children - ours are 10 & 14. Rome is not really a city to relax in. You are on the go all day to take in all the wonderful sites, often in large crowds. Returning home to the villa was bliss! We all could have some time to ourselves with two bedrooms, a kitchen/diner and a little snug with seats. It was also delightful to then go out to eat in the evening away from all the crowds in this local area, and walk back easily to our home. We ate in Tonda (wonderful) Project (funky) and, as claimed, Gori Gelato really does sell the best ice cream in Rome! Those with limited mobility or very young children might find the walk to the metro a little long, but for all others the buses and metro will get you anywhere you need to go! We highly recommend Lia as a thoughtful host and her home as your home for your stay in Rome.
