Located just a few underground stops away from the most important sights in Rome, the apartment is the annex of a one family house in Rome that lies in a quiet neighbourhood far from the traffic noise of big cities but very near to the metro station of Arco di Travertino with which is very easy to reach the centre of the town. The apartment has 2 bedrooms, 1 with double bed (on request we can add another bed) and the other with 2 single beds, one bath with shower and a well-equipped kitchen (microwave, mixer). TV, free WI-FI and air conditioning are available. A table and four chairs under a garden umbrella let you have lunch or dinner outside when the weather is good and let you relax after a long sightseeing of Rome. On request you can park in the courtyard(for a small extra charge).


To respect our environment we have solar panels to produce warm water

Available, very nice, and welcoming host. Also enjoyed seeing their quiet and gentle dog every day. The house was charming, with a nice private yard,and all the conveniences. Few minute walk to the metro A line. Nice local and non-touristy neighborhood, including with archaeological sites to visit. Good restaurants, and nearby grocery store. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you, Martina and Leonardo!

Great low cost accommodation

Very comfortable accommodation in a quiet area, close to metro & good supermarket nearby. Outside eating area & garden were an added bonus. Martina was very helpful & available and had set up an excellent folder of useful local information. We loved Lucy, the dog, so gentle and companionable. Thanks for a lovely stay in Rome.

A sanctuary in the city

The apartment was very clean, had everything you needed and the host does an excellent job of assisting with anything and makes great offers for local places. The house is secure and even though it is in the center of the city you can’t hear it. After the chaos of Rome it was great to retreat back to this place. I can’t recommend this place enough.

Homey

Martina was a great host, welcomed us in person and the house had a manual for meeting our needs… from using the AC, to where the closest grocery stores were. Their dog Lucy was a lovely addition, she welcomed us cheerfully every time we came home. Transportation is within walking distance and it was a nice quiet street. I would definitely stay there again.

We had a lovely stay at this property. The owner was flexible with our arrival times and greeted us on our way in with some tips for navigating the area. The area across the road is a little run down looking, but we never felt unsafe. The house was beautiful, with a nice little patio to sit on in the mornings. There is also a metro station just down the road for easy transportation to and from the city and she also offered to set up our cab to the airport on the day of our departure. I will definitely be keeping this property in mind if we visit again!

Ruhig gelegene Unterkunft

Die Unterkunft ist ruhig gelegen, auch wenn man ab und an ein Flugzeug hört, was aber nicht weiter stört. Die Betten sind bequem, die Küche gut ausgestattet. Einzig eine Kanne o.ä. fehlte uns etwas. Martina ist sehr freundlich und war immer gut erreichbar, wenn man eine Frage hat. Zur Verfügung steht auch eine schöner Gartenbereich. Aufgrund der Gartennähe sind Ameisen mit von der Partie, was uns aber nicht störte.

Super Wohnung - der Abschied fiel schwer

Wir hatten eine tolle Kurzwoche in Rom. Die Wohnung ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man benötigt. Uns waren die zwei getrennten Schlafzimmer wichtig - TOP! Der Supermarkt in der direkten Nähe machte ein schnelles Frühstück ebenso einfach, wie ein schnelles Abendessen nach einem langen Touri-Tag. Die Metro-Anbindung ist super - somit ist man in 15 Minuten mitten im Zentrum. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt-Martina stand immer mit Rat und Tat zur Seite.Der von ihr organisierte Taxi-Transfer zum Flughafen lief ebenfalls super. Wenn wir Rom erneut besuchen, wissen wir wo wir wohnen wollen!

Tolle Unterkunft für Urlaub in Rom

Es ist alles vorhanden, was man für einen Aufenthalt in Rom benötigt. Kühlschrank mit Eisfach, Herd mit Backofen, Kaffee, Spülmitel usw. Man kann einfach einchecken und sich wohlfühlen. Die Betreiberin ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit und jederzeit erreichbar. Mit dieser sind die Sehenswürdigkeiten in Rom in 15-20 Min. zu erreichen. Man konnte sein Auto sogar in der Unterkunft abstellen und musste nicht auf der Straße parken, was uns auch sehr wichtig war. In unmittelbarer Nähe befindet sich ein Supermarkt welcher von 08.00 - 20.00 Uhr geöffnet ist. Auch die Metro ist zu Fuß in 5 Min. zu erreichen. Einziger Nachteil war die Klimaanlage, welche am ersten Tag nur im Elternschlafzimmer ging und im Kinderzimmer nicht so richtig. Am zweiten Tag ging die Klima im Elternschlafzimmer aus und nicht mehr an, was bei 37 C (im Schatten) fast unerträglich war.

Roma - Reise in die Vergangenheit

Die Casa von Martina und Ihrer Familie mit der tollen Wachhündin war uns ein entspanntes Kleinod im Herzen Roms, was dank seiner ruhigen Lage in unmittelbarer Nähe zur U-Bahn genau der richtige Ausgleich nach dem Tag in einer lauten und historisch vollgepackten Stadt wie Rom war. Der nächste Supermarkt war auch super fußläufig zu erreichen. Alles in allem ein toller Trip zurück in die Vergangenheit.👍

Ruhige Wohnung, die über die Metro idealen Zugang nach Rom zulässt.

Das wichtigste zunächst, Martina ist eine wunderbare Gastgeberin, die um das wohl Ihrer Gäste äußerst bemüht ist. Die Wohnung selbst ist für zwei Personen ausreichend groß und gut ausgestattet. Die Lage ist ruhig. Ein angeschlossener Garten, erlaubt abendliche Entspannung. Für den täglichen Bedarf sind Geschäfte in der Nähe. Der Weg zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten Roms ist mit der ebenfalls in Fussnähe gelegenen Metrostation sehr schnell und bequem. Danke für die Gastfreundschaft.

Gite confortable au calme proche ligne métro pour aller au centre

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié de nous retrouver au calme dans ce logement avec un jardin après de longues marches pour visiter Rome qui était à 15 mn en métro sur la ligne principale A. Rien ne manquait dans le logement et la literie très confortable. Nous n'étions pas loin de l'ancienne voie romain (via appia) qui est dans un très grand parc très agréable. Martina, notre hôtesse a toujours été très agréable et prête à nous aider quand nous en avions besoin. Nous n'hésiterons pas à revenir loger ici si nous revenons dans cette ville maqique.
