Patrizia and her family made us feel very welcomed and went out of their way to accommodate our needs. They pick us up at the train station without us requesting it which was a very nice gesture and touch. The room was well appointed and very comfortable. We had our own private bathroom and the setting was in a nice and quiet neighborhood. We were treated more like acquaintances than guests and even got to watch some Italian soccer matches with the father; something that we love and that they weren't required to let us do. Patrizia made some very good recommendations for restaurants so we had some great meals while there. The location is VERY convenient to the main metro station from Rome, the downtown/Medieval castle area and the ruins of Ostia. I think this is a great location whether you just want to see Ostia or if you want to commute into Rome for tourism or to the beach at Ostia Lido. Very good host and very nice location!
