Our wonderful Roman Home

My husband, 15 year old son and I have just returned from our 4th stay in this apartment over the last 13 years. At one time, a number of years ago, we lived in this apartment for 2 months. As always, our stay was great. The apartment is conveniently located within walking distance of the Trastevere train station, (with service from the airport) as well as several tram lines, bus lines, and local trains. It is easy to get anywhere in the city of Rome, or to take day trips such as Ostia Antica. You can even walk to the Aventine and forum / colosseum area! The apartment is within a few blocks of a wide variety of food shops - grocery stores, delis, bakeries, produce vendors, a butcher, a fish monger, take-out meals, gelaterias, pizzerias, "bars" (coffee shops), and restaurants. The choices are fabulous.There is an ATM right around the corner. The apartment itself is very clean, well-equipped, and comfortable, and is located in a building (and neighbourhood) which is not touristy - you are staying among real Roman citizens, which is refreshing and fun. The owner of the apartment is American, so all of your rental arrangements are undertaken in English and in American dollars, which is nice. The building caretaker is a lovely woman who is very friendly, and helpful if required. We love this apartment, and can't wait to stay there again!
