We stayed at Alessandro’s with our two children during the Lemon Bowl, a youth tennis tournament nearby.
It was the perfect location for us and had all the amenities a modern family needs, including two WiFi routers.
Alessandro drove us around when we arrived to show us the nearby options for food, shopping and parks, all of which is walking distance.
It was too cold to enjoy all the outdoor space the place provides and there was plenty of street parking so we didn’t use the garage.
You could stay here without a car and walk to the local train to downtown Rome and access the local shops by foot with plenty of options, but we had a rental car the entire time. It’s an average of 40 minutes driving to reach the central Rome tourist attractions where it was very difficult to find parking. Of course we were there during the Christmas to Three Kings holidays so that may have increased this traffic and parking.
Extra bonus for us, next door is a small local tennis and fútbol club, they were very friendly (speaking Italian preferred but we were ok with a mix of spanish and english) and let us book a court for a small fee each day and helped us find players to help warm up our daughters for the tournament.
The Asían restaurant across the street was fantastic with an all you can eat option for 15 euros a person, anything on the menu dim sum style.
And there is a great family run pizzeria one block away in a commercial strip with pharmacy, barber and deli/liquor store. There are 3 supermarkets within a block walking.
