Luisa is just a lovely lady! We were contacted prior to our stay about the sleeping arrangements we’d like and Luisa also kindly advised us about our journey to Rome from Salerno. One of the most sincere and prompt hosts we have ever met :)
The apartment itself is adorable, from the decor to the stained glass partitions. We enjoyed our stay - the size is just right for 2 people but probably not more. Everything is clean and tidy from the hot water kettle to the microwave. There’s a fantastic selection of tea (both bagged and loose!) with muffins and teacakes. Many helpful instruction manuals and guidebooks can be easily found in the apartment.
From the apartment it’s a 15 min walk to Colosseo but we pretty much took the bus or metro everywhere because it’s not too difficult to navigate. On the perpendicular main street, there is a tabacchi bar which serves great coffee and further down the same road, a very affordable chinese take-away joint called Piccola Hong Kong.
A word of caution... if you need bottled water, it’s probably cheaper to get it from the tabacchi bar and not the marts as the prices can be somewhat of a rip-off.
Overall, cosy, clean apartment with a convenient location but which offers peace and quiet at the same time. :)
