Cristina's place is a nice, quiet and affordable haven in the busy city of Rome. It is located in a quiet district about 30-45 minutes away by metro from the various historic sights of Rome. Very clean, very spacious, and brand new everything... probably refurbished about 1 year ago. Free parking too!
The apartment itself is simply superb!!!! Beautifully lit up with plenty of lights, very powerful air-conditioning, a nice functional kitchen, sparkling clean and modern shower and toilet, excellent washing machine, oven, microwave, wifi etc. Very safe and secure.
Modern faux wood flooring and extremely clean all around. 2 proper and very large bedrooms with very comfortable king size beds. Everything brand new and clean.
The area is not the richest or toniest neighbourhood of Rome since that would cost a fortune... it is a simple working class neighbourhood, but very safe. Only 5-7 minutes walk away from the metro station, very convenient. There are lots of restaurants and supermarkets available within 2-4 minutes walk. Italian, sushi, pizzeria, Chinese, etc...
You cannot go wrong booking this apartment. It is a fantastic option at under a hundred US $, and Cristina is a very attentive host. She was always available by phone and whatsapp. Although we did not meet her (since she has a busy schedule running her shop near the Vatican), her mother was always available in person. Her mother lives in the same building and was joyfully willing to help us out with all our concerns. Once when the electricity tripped in the afternoon, she was there at the doorstep of our apartment in less than 3 minutes after we called her, and fixed the problem in 30 seconds flat!! Amazing mother and daughter team that will make your Rome stay the best home stay!!!
