I had a wonderful experience!
I was in touch with Fabio before I left California to make sure I knew exactly how to get to their cottage since I was taking the metro and traveling alone.
It was very easy to travel to their home from the airport and the center of Rome (only 25-30 minutes) on the train.
I was greeted at the door with warm Italian hospitality (and a big hug) from their mother and I was given a tour of the property by Roberto.
The cottage is exactly how you see it in the photos and it’s larger than I expected! Very clean and stocked with all the amenities you need during your stay!
Although you are on the family property, you are never bothered and it’s very quiet. The only time I had contact is when I was looking for recommendations on places to visit and when Fabio would contact me to make sure everything was ok.
There are local cafes in walking distance that have affordable good food.
Although I don’t speak Italian and they didn’t speak much English we were able to still communicate with a little help from Google translate! 😊
If you are looking for your next home away from home, that’s close to Rome...I highly recommend that you book your next stay at Julia’s Cottage!
