This is a delightful, small apartment, newly re-structured, re-decorated, and fully furnished. It is very peaceful as it is not exposed to traffic noise, although one side of the apartment faces onto a secondary street. The accommodation comprises of two rooms, both with a suspended balcony sleepingrelaxation area, a bathroom that features a shower with hydro-massage, and a fully equipped corner kitchencooking area. The accommodation is heated and also offers air conditioning. Among the equipment included in the rental cost is a microwave oven, a television, an iron, a hairdryer, a radio-cd and a PlayStation 1. The apartment is situated in the heart of Rome, very close to the famous Pyramid of Caio Cestio, from where it is an easy 10 minutes walk to arrive at the Colosseum. From there you may wish to return to the apartment by using the underground railway network. The accommodation is well-served by the Rome metropolitan underground railway, in fact the Piramide station is literally across the road in front of the apartment - less than two minutes walk from the door, thus putting the entire city within comfortable reach! The city's bus and night bus services also stop directly in front of the apartment, while the regular surface railway and airport railway services for Fiumicino airport are immediately on hand. Directly in front of the apartment is also the station of the train for Ostia beach. The apartment is in an area surrounded by ancient Roman monuments, including the walls of the ancient city, the Pyramide, and the Porta Romana of St. Paul, while Roman nightlife abounds in the nearby Ostiense neighbourhood. For those who are too busy to cook, a large rosticceria, or eat-in take-away restaurant, is directly next door, below the apartment - very useful! The apartment is beautifully furnished, comfortable, well-situated for all services, and is warm in winter and cool during the summer - a real home from home.
By air: from Rome Fiumicino take the train that arrives at the Ostiense station in Rome, then on foot across Via Ostiense. You will arrive directly at the main entrance doorway. Alternatively, use the internal underground railway walkways. On exiting the metropolitan underground station at Ostiense, simply cross the road and you have arrived at the doorway. By train: after arriving at Rome's Termini station use the B line of the metropolitan underground railway. Exit at Pyramide station. Cross the road and you have arrived at the street-level entrance doorway. Alternatively, on arriving at Rome's Ostiense surface railway station, cross the Via Ostiense on foot or use the internal underground railway walkways - cross the road and you will arrive at the main, street-level entrance doorway. By car: from all directions, when nearing Rome by road, take the G. R. A. (Great Ring Road that circles the city of Rome) and exit at the slip-road No. 28 for Via Ostiense. Follow the road straight on to the Pyramide - there really is an enormous Egyptian marble pyramid in the middle of the street - and you have arrived at your destination.
