We had a lovely 3 night stay at Fulvio's apartment. The apartment was really nice and clean and finished to a high standard.
We were greeted by a colleague of Fulvio's who gave a nice welcome and a chat about getting around the city, then left us to it.
There was tea bags and instant coffee, soaps etc provided.
The location is really close to Trastevere train station, which has a direct line to the airport. Trastevere centre itself is quite a distance away but the no 8 tram is a great way of getting to and fro.
On the Sunday I opened the shutters to find wall to wall market stalls outside which stretched as far as the eye could see. Interesting for a little wander on a Sunday morning.
Recommend places to pop in to in the area: Pizza boom - great pizzas & arancini. Sit in or takeaway - v good value - very casual, plastic plates sort of place but excellent quality.
Pepe Rosa - at Trastevere train station - delicious restaurant. Big portions, reasonable prices. Upmarket but not too expensive.
The ice cream shop beside the apartment opposite the pharmacy is fab, as is the posh one up on the main road where you get the trams - cheap too! Lovely staff.
The only downside was the traffic noise, but I am a light sleeper. It didn't bother my husband or the kids. There also wasn't a smoke alarm that I could see, but I don't think this is legally required in Italy. You could always pack your own, which I will remember to do next time.
All in all, very good indeed. Thank you Fulvio
