Donatella and her son Marco went an extra mile to make sure my stay at their gorgeous apartment was comfortable and special. Marco arranged for a pickup and a drop-off at Fumicino, which was a huge help since both of my flights were at a crack of the dawn.

The apartment is exactly as you see it in pictures. It is conveniently located close to a metro line if you wanted to take a metro to a city center. You are steps away from the Old City Wall and just a short distance from Vatican. The neighborhood offers authentic Italian food restaurants as it is far from the epicenter of tourists. Marco kindly shared names of his favourite restaurants and they were all lovely!
