We had a cozy, special holidays in Rome. The apartment was clean, tidy and has everything we need for our stay. The neighbourhood was quiet and peaceful and has everything nearby like shops, supermarket, bakery and grocery. The bus station is right in front the building and it’s actually 20 minute bus ride from city centre. Highly recommended!!!!

Outstanding Stay – Highly Recommended!
Our stay at this accommodation was exceptional. The room was incredibly spacious, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything we could possibly need – and more! Every detail was thoughtfully arranged to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The owner was extremely kind, welcoming, and always ready to assist with any request. Their hospitality truly made a difference and enhanced our experience. We would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for quality accommodation and excellent service. We can’t wait to return!Daniel from Romania (9/10)
We had a cozy, pleasant holiday in Rome, apart from the frantic urban core. There is a fantastic Gelateria at the ground floor. We enjoyed staying in the apartment and we liked the neighborhood too!
Marko from North Macedonia (9/10)
I had a great stay! The apartment was spotless and had everything I needed for my stay, including all the essentials. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet, perfect for relaxing after a long day. Even though it might seem far from the city center, it’s actually just a quick 20-minute bus ride at most, with fast and efficient transportation. There’s a bus station right in front of the building, making it super convenient.There are also nearby markets, which made grocery shopping really easy. Highly recommend!"
