This studio is perfectly sized for 2 to 4 people in a very quiet and peaceful area by the airport.
This place has a balcony, a washer, a stove, an oven, a microwave, a fridge, a TV, and a sofa bed.
Due to covid, our family chose this private place away from Rome city center, near the beach.
To get to Rome city center, we used Uber directly to city center or to the airport and from the airport, we used the Trenitalia as we didn't rent a car. However there's another way to get there and that is by taking the cotral bus to Lido Centro and then the Metro from there to Rome city center. We didn't do this as it would take a long time to get there but it's definitely a cheaper way if you want to try it.
To get to Papaya beach, we walked for 35 minutes.
To get to the other beach at Ostia, you can take the bus to Lido Centro. Pontile di Ostia is within a 10 minutes walking distance from Lido Centro. To head back, take the bus back to Isola Sacra (sacred island), not the one called aeroporto. You can check the bus schedule by searching cotral bus on the web as that is the bus that connects Isola sacra and ostia. Do not attempt to walk to ostia as it's not possible, the bus takes you there within 15 to 20 minutes. You can buy the bus tickets at tabacchi places, ask for cotral, the cost now is 1.3 € each way.
I enjoyed my stay at this place because I had lots of sunny days without the tons of heat you experience in Rome city center. The AC worked very well whenever we used it. We also didn't need a lighter to use the stove.
The complex is very well maintained and there's breakfast offered as well if you want to eat before heading somewhere. At the moment of our trip, the breakfast is 3€ and it's worth it.
If you want to cook, Conad superstore and supermercato elite are both within a 3 to 5 minutes walking distance.
I will definitely consider coming back to the same place in the future.
