It was the first time using an Airbnb Pasquale kindly met us at the apartment which is a very well placed apartment and close to restaurants, places of interest and transport amenities. Pasquale recommended a lovely restaurant which was friendly & excellent. We went to a concert on the first night at the Church Within The Walks which was excellent.
The room is very clean and cosy. The shower was lovely, the Nespresso machine was a bonus, fridge, tv, good bedding and towels. Ideal for two people.
We took the shuttle bus from Rome airport to the terminal in Rome which cost 6 euros each. We then took a taxi from the terminal to the apartment and paid 30 euros, which was extortionate for such a short drive. We made the mistake of not asking the driver to put the meter on! However on leaving we walked with our cases to the terminal in Rome to take the train to Pisa which took us only ten minutes! My husband is 70 and I am 69 so if we can do it I’m sure other people can!!
At the train station we were lifting our cases onto the train and were helped by a kind man, I use the term loosely because he robbed my husband by removing his wallet and taking all his euros, but luckily he threw his wallet down and didn’t take his bank cards!
So just beware that not all strangers are trustworthy, kind or decent!!
Otherwise we enjoyed our stay at the apartment. Loved the history and buildings and felt safe in the area that we stayed. They are lots of police and carabiner walking and driving around the streets. We would definitely visit again!
