Attracted by the private bathroom, we decided to stay with Giovanna, a very nice Roman lady who lives with her daughter in the house close to Stazione Ostiense, a beautiful and quiet residential area. Giovanna is a very friendly and kind host who made lovely breakfast for us every morning, including crepes! She explained everything we needed to know and gave us valuable advice about where to go and what to do. Upon our arrival at Stazione Ostiense, Giovanna picked us up by car and on the day of our departure she drove us back to the trainstation after giving us a nice tour of another picturesque area. The house is located about 15 minutes by foot to the Circus Massimo and about 25 minutes to the Colosseo. The wifi internet didn't work but Giovanna gave us her tablet that had 3G, hence we actually had an online map with us at all times. I would recommend this place to people who want to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city but still be close enough to walk into the center of Rome.
Thank you Giovanna for a great stay!
