Paolo’s studio is a good choice for solo travellers looking to get off the beaten track.
The flat is just a short walk from the Trastevere train station, which provides easy access to and from Fiumicino airport. There are numerous bus and tram links from the station to all parts of the city; the no. 8 tram goes directly to Piazza Venezia in just twenty minutes, while Testaccio and Trastevere are within walking distance.
