A quiet, completely restored studio apartment in the heart of Rome, a short walk from the Vatican. It is well served by public transport with nearby bus and Metro connections for the rest of the ciy , as well being near to the overground railway station of San Pietro (to Civitavecchia for Cruise)

To reach the studio on foot there are 2 roads, the first uphill that runs alongside the railway starting from Via Gregorio VII, the other more convenient is to go under the station St. Peter (subway) and you will reach the square of St. Peter's Station where you will find 2 convenient bus 64 and 62 that will take you to the historic centre, the latter is flat, apart from the stairs to go down for the subway.
In the morning when you are more rested you can opt for the road that runs alongside the railway, it is downhill, at the end of the road you will find bars, restaurants and a pharmacy.
There is an excellent bar at Portacavalleggeri with fresh gluten-free products, my favourite.

Hi, we could not have asked for a better host and family to take care of us while we stayed in Rome. Not only did Silvia and her family help us in every way possible they provided us with so many different avenues to get us around such a busy city.. we appreciate everything that they’ve done for us and when we come back, we will definitely seek her to stay againIf anybody is looking for a place that you can relax and enjoy and have the freedom to talk to a host that will lead you in the right directions. Stay here Silvia will take care of you or maybe even Lorenzo it’s worth it enjoy thank you very much.Paul and Belinda

A must stay!

From checkin to checkout Silvia was extremely accommodating. The location of the property was perfectly situated where it was close to everything we wanted to see in Roma. The flat was adorable and perfect for two people. We had an issue after we moved on to Florence and realized we left behind our passports in the safe. Silvia and Matteo were so helpful and understanding we had to drive 3 hours back and Sylvia had Matteo meet us so we could retrieve our passports, When we return we will definitely will be looking to stay here again.

Great place to explore Rome

House Aurelio is a nice little place to stay and use as a base to explore Rome. Pre-check in and follow-up communications with the host were great. The host even suggested a number of nice places to eat and explore. The apartment is small but is great for two people and has everything one will need. It is very well located to explore the Vatican but a little further away from the Colosseum, although walkable, some may like to use public transport (easy to use and cheap). We enjoyed our stay and would book it again.

Very nice stay in Rome

We wanted to experience more of the local culture for our visit to Rome so we opted to book this apartment rather than stay in a hotel. I’m very glad we did! It was a wonderful experience. The manager was so helpful giving us instructions for the train from the airport and how to get to the apartment. The station near the apartment was closed for improvements, so she arranged transportation for us to the apartment which was so helpful. The manager was very responsive to questions during our stay. The apartment is lovely and there was fruit and pastries waiting for us. We enjoyed our stay.

An ideal locale and beautiful apartment in Rome!

We had an excellent stay at this centrally located studio near the Vatican. The apartment was beautifully decorated and contained all the amenities and comforts one could need in kitchen and bath. The bed was very comfortable and the balcony was overlooking a quiet tree enclosed area that was quiet and relaxing. Ideal for transport to every part of the city and close enough to rest in between excursions. The owner was lovely and helpful in every way. A perfectly situated and peaceful home away from home in the city of Rome!

Amazing host and apartment

Our hosts were very thoughtful and helpful. Silvia provided many great recommendations for places to eat and to see. She was also very detailed when explaining and suggesting the best avenue to make it to the apartment. Matteo met us there for a very smooth check in process. The place was stocked with everything you would need. Chargers and wall plug adapters; umbrella; grocery bag; washing machine and laundry soap; tea, coffee, seasonings and oils, cookware and dishes; etc. The apartment is located very close to Vatican City, just close enough to walk or take a quick bus ride there, and just far enough to be in a quieter area. I would recommend this stay for anyone looking to visit Rome!

Silvia and Matteo were very welcoming. Great communication. Best to be on What’s App. The bed was very comfortable and the water was nice and warm. Be prepared for a small elevator if you have large suitcases. The apartment is near the top of a long hill next to the train station so be sure to wear comfortable shoes going to and from the apartment. Overall a nice spot that was comfortable and quiet even though the train is nearby. Great hosts too!

Great studio apartment

It was a nice little studio apartment that was comfortable and clean. The apartment is very close to a train stop and met with the property manager for check in once I arrived. Silvia is extremely nice and cares that her tenants are comfortable. She provided a quick tour of the place and advised me to reach out for any assistance. The location is near Vatican City with a 15-20 minute walk to St. Peter’s Square. There are a lot of restaurants and a couple grocery stores conveniently nearby. It’s a great place for solo, couples and friends that don’t mind sharing a bed. I had a comfortable and safe stay as a solo traveler.

Wonderful experience from start to finish

Silvia communicated with me as soon as I booked the studio for my stay and gave very clear directions and instructions. The photos were completely accurate and for an apartment in Rome, it’s incredibly spacious. The available appliances (dishwasher, washing machine, stove, fridge, etc) made it incredibly convenient when we needed to stay in. For any other visitors coming from locations with larger residential restrooms and who have not been to Europe before, the shower stall is smaller than typically found in the States but still spacious enough for one person. Bed was comfy, apartment was very clean and the AC unit was perfect. (We had expected colder weather per the weather reports but it ended up being much warmer so the AC was wonderful to have). Upon our arrival, Silvia was communicating often to ensure I was able to drop off our luggage prior to check in. We were visiting my sister so I didn’t need to but it was kind of her to offer.The community is quiet and there are lots of cats in the area (which I loved!). The property is also very close to St. Peter’s so if you’re looking to hear Papa Francesco speak, it’s a great location to be in. I will say, if you’re using the Free Now app to call a taxi from the apartment, allow extra time. Sometimes we had to wait a bit (up to 20 minutes). But the property is close to the train and a bus loop so transportation is convenient either way. Overall, we had a great experience and would recommend this property and the owner highly.

Quaint apartment in behind the Vatican city

I had a conference in Rome and wanted to do some sightseeing afterwards but wanted a more “authentic living experience” than a hotel so I booked this apartment for 4 nights. Matteo met me when I arrived and showed me everything I needed to know about it. It was a great little place. Perfect for one or two people. I think the description says it might be able to have up to 4 people, but in my opinion that would be very tight. There is a perfect little kitchen area complete with most cooking utensils if you want to shop and make meals. The small refrigerator and washer are out on the balcony. The balcony is great because t faces a semi-private backyard area. Only a few of the tenants of the building overlook it. For the most part it is pretty quiet, although it is a neighborhood, so you will hear your neighbors talking and making their normal living noises. The apartment is in walking distance (less than 5 minutes) of the Vatican City and approximately a two mile-ish walk to the central part of the city with other sites (Coloseum, Circus Maximus, etc). There is also a bus stop about a minutes walk from the apartment that will take you to those sites if walking is not desired. Silvia was also really wonderful about responding very promptly to any questions before and during the trip. The only negative I have to say is that there was a bit of a musty/moldy smell in the apartment. I’m not sure where t came from. I left the door to the balcony open whenever I was in the room, as it was very nice weather out, and I feel like that helped. Otherwise, the place was great!

This little studio apartment was perfect for our stay in Rome. It was very cute and had everything we needed. Silvia was very attentive, checked in on us, and was so gracious even when our train was late! She left us pizza because we got in later than expected and she knew we'd be hungry. We would definitely stay here again!

**Outstanding Hospitality and Service - Couldn't Have Asked for Better!**We had an absolutely excellent 3-night stay at the Pecoraro's studio apartment in Rome. From start to finish, our hosts went above and beyond to make our visit memorable.Silvia was incredibly accommodating and thoughtful. When we mentioned our early flight arrival, she graciously allowed us to drop off our luggage at their house so we could start exploring Rome right away. When it came time to check in, they personally gave us a ride to the studio apartment - such a welcoming gesture that really set the tone for our stay.What truly made the difference was Silvia's local expertise. She provided us with excellent recommendations for transportation, must-see places, and local restaurants. Having these insider tips made our Rome experience so much richer and helped us discover authentic spots we never would have found on our own.The studio apartment itself was perfect for our needs, and the exceptional personal service from our hosts made this stay truly special. We felt like welcomed guests rather than just renters. I would highly recommend staying with the Pecoraro’s - their hospitality and genuine care for their guests is remarkable. Thank you for making our Rome trip unforgettable!
