Melograni is just great! I’ve lived in Rome before so I know the city well, but I’ve never lived in this area, which I regret not having done before – now I know where I’m definitely coming back for my next visit!
THE ZONE: for a visitor, Melograni’s location is optimal for many reasons;
1)those who wish to visit the Vatican, it is within a few steps from the house (stupendous for going to the museum early in the morning!)
2)Metro stop Ottaviano is 10min away (Metro A), from which one can easily get to the Spanish steps (Spagna) and walk from there to Piazza Navona and Pantheon.
3)One can also easily take Metro A to the Termini train station and change to Metro B or go outside the city (Termini serves every direction).
4)football / soccer / sports fans will love the fact that they can walk to the Olympic Stadium.
5)Note that the air is a lot better in this area than in the very (ancient) center of Rome – this was an important consideration for me not to live in the very center, because I can get there by metro.

THE HOUSE: at the time of my arrival, the apartment was recently renovated, fully furnished with everything one needs, extremely clean, and just plain perfection. Lorenzo was a kind host and showed how things work in the house and gave advice. I was astonished how big the apartment actually is; there is ample space for two couples (2 big separate br) with an extra bed in the living room – for the price you can’t beat this deal.

Thank you so much Lorenzo for making this visit in Rome great, and thank you for the restaurant (Popeye pizza!) etc advice!
