Riccardo was an excellent host. Every query before and during our visit was answered promptly. He sent excellent instructions on how to find the apartment. The journey from the airport was 30 mins and then a 10 min walk up to the apartment. Riccardo was there to meet us and show us around. the accommodation is new, very modern and immaculately presented. It is like a show house! The outside table was lovely for breakfast. The area is residential and very quiet. The walk back down to the station / tram / bus is only five mins. There is direct access to everywhere in Rome from here. Tram 8 takes you right to the Coloseum / forum/Palentine Hill. Supermarket, lovely little bakery, chemist ... all beside the tram and train station. Would definitely recommend.
