Gabriella's apartment is clean, stylish and comfortable. And (importantly) was a cool, shady place to come back to and relax after the heat of Rome.
The apartment is just a short walk from the train terminus (10-15mins) and about a 30min walk from The Colosseum. We stayed as a family of 2 adults, 10 year old daughter and 2 teenagers/young adults and we were happy for the older 2 to wander off into the city by themselves.
The streets around the apartment are sprinkled with little restaurants and cafes which all seem to spring into life in the evening. We particularly liked the Fratelli restaurant and the Osterea behind the apartment (as well as the gelateria on the main road!).
Gabriella was a great host who met us on arrival and took the time to recommend her family's favourite restaurants, talk us through the public transport options and give us some tips about sightseeing in Rome. She also accompanied me to the pharmacy as my daughter had an earache, which was so kind of her!
We would recommend this lovely apartment.
