The apartment was very cute, clean, and bright! There was lots of space for our family of 3 to have some privacy at the end of the day and we felt safe, comfortable and at home. The location of the apartment was fantastic, basically in the middle of Ostia so that we were close to the beachfront and the metro/bus station as well as shops and restaurants. Everything was in walking distance from the apartment and Rome was an easy half hour-ish from Ostia. Mirko was very hospitable and when our flight was delayed several hours and we arrived very late in the night, he was still very pleasant and welcoming, still giving us a run-down of the apartment. Definitely would recommend for anyone looking for a beach-side Italian experience close to Rome!
