We have enjoyed our stay in Elena's apartment. It is very clean, cosy and homey. We didn't get to meet Elena as she was away. Garrafa family have welcomed us warmly. Fabio recommended us the places and restaurants to visit. Their cat, Nero is so adorable. The apartment is located in the residential suburb, which is nice to experience and enjoy local life. There is a local supermarket close by, 3 minutes walking distance. It's about 10 to 15 minutes walk to Saint Giovanni metro station. There is a bus close by as well. We found taking Metro train is quicker. There is an organic supermarket, Naturasi,near by as well, 10 minutes walking distance. We really enjoyed shopping grocery there. The organic bread, pasta, vegetables and water are very good. We strongly recommend to shop grocery there. Overall, we really enjoyed Rome and our stay in Elena's apartment. Thank Garrafa family very much for the wonderful hospitality and we will definitely come back.
