Paola is the best hostess I’ve ever had. Not only did she pick us up at the airport but when my daughter got injured she drove us to the pharmacy and orthopedic store to buy her crutches. She provides an excellent breakfast as well. Her apartment is very nice and the balcony view is amazing. The town of Ostia Antica is a tourist attraction in itself with several good restaurants along with the extensive ruins and castle. It is a 15 minute walk to the train station which will take you into Rome in about 40-50 minutes depending on where you need to go.
