Our apartment is located in the hearth of the historic centre of Rome "Rione Testaccio", this is a strategic area with many cultural sites within walking distance such as Circus Maximus (1,2 km) and Coliseum (2,3 km). We are 100 mt. from Tiber. Cross the bridge, and you are in the Trastevere district where you can enjoy every Sunday the fantastic flea market. Termini Train Station is 4 Metro Stop and the subway Station Piramide is 300m away from the apartment, Ostiense Train Station (from FCO Airport) is 800m far from the apartment. A beautiful walk along the characteristic river Tiber bank (Lungotevere) will bring you in a few minutes to the site of "Bocca della Verità" (1,3 km famous movie spot where we suggest you take some photos). Here you can chose different tours: one option is to walk along the "Roman Stadium - Circus Maximus" towards the entrance of the Coliseum and the Imperial Forum; a second one is to proceed along the Tiber, a route which will easily lead to "Campo de' Fiori", passing along side the characteristic Jewish District. (the Ghetto) To catch a majestic viewpoint of the city, climb up Colle Aventino (one of the seven roman hills) which will entice you with a romantic sight of Rome from the “Giardino degli Aranci' and where you will see some of the oldest Churches of the city.
The best part is how accessible it is. You step out the door and you are at a tram/bus stop. So it’s easy to get everywhere. The bus/tram/metro system in Rome is great.. You can also get to the Metro and a regional train with either 2 stops on the bus or about a 10 minute walk!

You will find every kind of shop you could possibly need within the neighboring blocks—butcher, wine, pasta, bakery, small supermarket, etc. and just a few blocks is Testaccio Market filled with all the charm and treats of Italy—-everything from shoes to vegetables, baked goods, etc. , and with internal small bars offering good 'expresso' as you relax enjoying the sun.

Carlo met us at the unit and was very responsive to all our needs. The rental was in a quiet, safe neighborhood where we felt like we were part of the daily action right away!
The neighborhood and apartment were perfect. Carlos acquainted us with the neighborhood and was a text away for any questions we had. Highly recommend.
We loved this space and the neighbourhood. Fantastic Roman Holiday with personal recommendations from Carlo for the best restaurants, the perfect breakfast and local sites. Would highly recommend. Apartment is situated so that walking is a great option. Thank you.
Best host, location and amenities we’ve ever had. Host communication was excellent and they walked us around the neighborhood to show us local attractions. Great restaurants nearby with better food and prices than busier Rome locales. Felt like we were eating with locals. Easy walk or bus to all Rome has to offer. Host left welcome gifts and tourist information. We would definitely stay here again
This property is within walking distance from the metro and busses to get anywhere in Rome. The property was very clean, the bed was comfortable and the kitchen fully stocked with complimentary Nespresso machine, coffee pods and Italian cookies; as well as a bottle of wine and port and the fridge had milk, water and soft drinks.
Our hosts were perfect. They met us when we arrived and showed us around the neighborhood and apartment. They were quick to answer any questions and help. The apartment is right across from the public transportation and not far from everything. But it is a local neighborhood with fantastic food and local vibe. Best food and prices in Rome!! We had a nice bottle of wine to welcome us and maps, books, travel suggestions etc. everything was perfect. Highly recommend staying here. You won’t regret it!!!
Carlo & Alessandra could not have been more kind and welcoming. Communication before arrival was excellent and, as an 8th generation resident, Carlo's local knowledge and advice were invaluable. We went to the restaurants etc that he recommended and we weren't disappointed.The apartment is well equipped, very clean and very comfortable. Carlo & Alessandra also include a generous welcome pack.The location in Testaccio is impressively authentic. The restaurants, cafes, gelaterias & shops offer delicious & superb produce at good prices. Links to the main attractions & city centre are good and easy.Just a word of caution to those, like us, visiting Rome for the first time. Make sure you validate bus & train tickets in the machines provided. We didn't know about this and, although we had tickets, we were fined by transport police as we got off the bus at Vatican Museums for not having validated our bus tickets - 108!!
Both of the houses were the best people we met. You guys will enjoy your stay there at their place l
We will stay there again when we come back to Italy we love the area close to downtown. Restaurants in the hostess was very pleasant very hospitality. Thank you for everything.
This is a beautiful one bedroom apartment in a great, safe area of Rome! Carlo met us for an early check-in and took the time to show us around the area and point out restaurants and recommend place for us to visit. Would definitely stay again!
Stayed 3 nights for a visit to the old Rome. Could not have been a better location and a very special introduction to the neighbourhood by the owner Carlo. A great stay. Highly tecommend.
I was completely impressed by everything about this apartment. It's in a great location with easy public transportation virtually outside the front door that gets you everywhere you want to be in Rome.Many wonderful restaurants abound within blocks. This is a local neighborhood and had a very safe and friendly vibe. Although there were other tourists in the restaurants, it really is a hidden gem - a great contrast to the full-on tourist crazy that is Trastevere - which is only a 20 min walk away, just across the river.Carlos, the owner, was very nice and explained everything and provided a thorough overview of where things are located nearby. The apartment was spotless and looked to be recently fully renovated. The only thing I would point out is that there are multiple diffusers/fragrances and potpourri's in the space, which I enjoyed. But if you are sensitive to those, this may not be a good choice for you.That being said, if you are considering this hidden gem, I whole heartedly suggest you book it. It is a perfect place for your Rome adventure - full of charm and it provides a truly authentic experience.
This apartment in the Testaccio neighborhood was absolutely perfect. It was clean, comfortable & quiet. It had every amenity I needed. Carlo & Alessandra were wonderful hosts. If you’re looking for a place slightly off the beaten track of the city center, I highly recommend.
Carlo and Alessandra are the most welcoming hosts. The place is great, with amazing eating places around the area. Bus and metro stations are closed. We 100% recommend this location and the host to future travelers. Mirela
