A&C Design Apartment in Rome Just a Step from Trastevere & Colosseum! Bus Metro

Please note we guarantee a one day break one rental to another. The apartement is systematically steamcleaned before and after your stay to ensure your safety and comfort. Medical sanitizers are also used on every surface. Carlo e Alessandra have been trained in check-in/ out to protect your safety*

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!

OUR apartment is the perfect blend of space, comfort, for 2 people, is a refined work of the "Architectural Cristell & De Andreis", is in a nineteenth century building with concierge (Alessia), overlooking a characteristic and quiet courtyard, it is on the 3rd and last floor (with a new, modern elevator).
There are original ceilings and floor, bright along day and evening, completely renovated with deep-colors and soft lights giving you an intimate atmosphere; it is overall 50 square meters wide.
It is structured by a comfortable living room with a well-equipped kitchenette (a toaster, an electric kettle, coffee maker NESPRESSO, microwave, etc) TV LCD and dishwasher; a large Double Room (25 mt) with a wide double bed and a sofa , TV LCD 32'; big-marble bathroom with a new Box shower (mt. 1.20), bidet, a warm-towels, hair dryer, kit bathroom with bath towers, bath slippers.
It shows elegant finishing touches: Vertical Steaming, 2 TV LCD, Air Conditioning, Autonomous Heating, FREE WI-FI ADSL 24H.

THE PRICE INCLUDE: Linen, Cotton towels, Electricity, Air Conditioning, Heating, Utilities, WIFI ADSL.24H

LOCATION
After a fatiguing day as a tourist one can enjoy relaxing moments as a “roman” moving inside the Testaccio district, a little away from the tourist area...the food is fabulous, the costs for things a good bit less and you get a little more of a feel of everyday life while easily being able to get everywhere else. 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.

Why us? The owners put up to your disposal: maps of the city, some suggestions where to go within the neighborhood associating sights with nice and pleasant atmosphere; bathroom kits, sleepers and breakfast supplies: Tea Twinings, coffee, jams and fruits. Luxury touches in a relaxing ambiance designed for your complete comfort, all included in price quoted!

THE BUSES lead us directly to: St. Peter's and Vatican Museum (Bus N. 23); Piazza Venezia, Piazza Navona Pantheon (Bus N. 30); Villa Borghese Museum (BUS N. 3);

Parking lot 8€ per day.
On request is possible to have the transfer from/to the airport: (Fiumicino 50 Euro); (Ciampino 40 Euro)

Perfetto

We booked this apartment because it had a 100% 10 out of 10 rating. How is this possible? Carlo and Alessandra are the most gracious and helpful hosts. This is their ancestral home and their pride in the area is only matched by the quality of the area. The trains, metro and buses are all close at hand but the proximity to so many of the historic areas of Rome means walking is a valid option.Carlo and Alessandra’s hospitality was expressed in so many ways. Like, taking off their shoes before showing us the apartment with no expectation we had to do the same “because the cleaned floor is now yours”; and showing us the best restaurants, bars, gelato shops etc. within a short walk of the apartment. There was so much more but I do not want to spoil the excitement of discovery when you visit.10 out of 10 …. no problem.

When in Rome

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.

Perfect place to stay in Rome

My husband and I loved our time at this property. The hosts are extremely thoughtful and gracious- welcoming us in person, giving helpful tips and information about the neighborhood, Roman culture, where to eat, etc, and even providing gifts including a bottle of wine upon check in. The location is perfect, the apartment is beautiful. They even helped us with our luggage on our way out and saw us off. You really can’t do much better for your stay in Rome. Highly recommend.

Excellent choice

Carlo and Alessandra were so very kind and helpful upon our arrival. Carlo gave us some wonderful recommendations on restaurants in the neighborhood. He gave us the history of the neighborhood with so many historic sights within walking distance. The bus stop is a 2 minute walk away and very convenient. We had a very lovely and comfortable place to come back to after a busy day. The apartment was very clean and the kitchenette gave us the opportunity to bring back leftovers and pastries, bread, deli meat and cheeses. Highly recommended.

Amazing stay!

We absolutely loved our stay in Rome! The apartment was so clean and very easy to get to. The host spent time showing us all of the great places to get dinner, breakfast and any other things we may need while we were there. He was very responsive if we needed anything. I could not recommend this location or host more! If we ever make it back to Rome we would not hesitate to stay here again. It’s such a wonderful neighborhood and so close to everything you want to see. Thank you so much for a great experience!

If you are thinking about booking this apartment for your stay in Rome, it will be one of the best decisions you make for your vacation. Carlo and Allesandra were so helpful and attentive in sharing information about the area. They have a beautiful and affordable apartment that is so close to the city center.

A beautiful place to experience the Rome!

From the moment I booked my reservation Carlos was responsive. He was waiting at the gate to welcome us to this beautiful apartment. Once we dropped off our luggage he showed us everything from grocery stores,restaurants, bakery’s for our morning pastries, how to catch buses and the metro. The apartment was perfect!! So clean and decorated beautifully. It had a wonderful shower and bed and plenty of space. We appreciated the water and tea in the fridge and the wine when we arrived. I would 100% stay here again. Testaccio was a wonderful neighborhood. We loved sitting in the square at night and watching the families while we enjoyed gelato. Thank you Carlos for everything and can not wait to come back and visit again🇮🇹🤗

Great Experience

This was our first time in Italy and was nervous about our stay in Rome before our cruise. Carlo & Alessandra knew this and did all they could to make sure our worries where addressed before hand. Carlo met us in front of the property and showed us the best places to eat, where to catch the bus and showed us a little neighborhood community square. My wife and I really enjoyed the neighborhood community square, the locals in the neighborhood would meet, eat, drink coffee and wine and let the little ones play. Carlo took us to our apartment which we where met with a bottle of wine that his wife chose for us. The apartment had A/C, kitchen, bedroom and a bathroom. It was very clean and modern without losing its old Italian feel. GREAT EXPERIENCE!!! Thank You Carlo & Alessandra.

Roman treasure

Carlo and Alessandra are the most wonderful hosts you can have and their apartment is a gem in the beating heart of Rome. The flat is impeccably clean and well equipped and the neighborhood is fantastic. Great little bars, cafes, restaurants and shops nearby for any need imaginable and the village square a block away is bustling with nearby families and residents socializing in the late afternoon and early evening. We had an wonderful stay thanks to Carlo’s advice and recommendations and Alessandra’s attention to all details inside. We highly recommend this beautiful place and it’s kind and gracious hosts. We hope to be back again sometime!

Wonderful apartment and wonderful location!

Carlo e Alessandra looked after us so well! We enjoyed staying there very much. We appreciated their care for their guests. The apartment is beautifully laid out and furnished. Excellent attention to the details that make a place special. We were very glad of Carlo’s showing us around the area, and giving us advice on good places to eat. There is lots of great food nearby. We have fallen in love with Testaccio. It is such a lovely area. We enjoyed spending time in Piazza Testaccio, and watching the families and friends gathering, talking, eating and drinking; and the kids playing with water and kicking footballs around. Such a lovely community! Testaccio is now our favourite place in Roma.

Charming apartment

We loved our stay ! Carlo and his wife were were there when we arrived (late) and they were wonderful hosts. Carlo gave us great advice in English about transportation and nearby restaurants. The neighborhood was a family oriented area, very safe, away from tourist overload and bustle. We enjoyed walking at night in a nearby park where children were playing and adults were chatting and walking their dogs. The apartment was clean and charming. And Carlo’s wife, a sommelier, left us a tasty bottle of red wine which we enjoyed. The building was architecturally very interesting, and had been in the same family of owners for generations. The only minor down side of this location was its distance from major tourist attractions which we were there to visit. Nearby gelato, pasta and pizza were wonderful as was a great coffee and pastry shop. However, buses, metro and taxi are available and if you don’t mind walking it’s a great way to learn about the city’s great diversity and charm.
