Perfect location in a true Roman neighborhood
We spent six great weeks in the Elephant Apartment in the area known as Trieste Salario in Rome. This area is not overrun by tourists; you are in a true Roman neighborhood, not in part of the theme park into which much of Rome is turning. There are supermarkets, restaurants and stores within two to three blocks of the apartment. The convenience of the apartment to bus and tram transport to anywhere in the city can not be exaggerated and, in our experience, was one of the major attractions of the apartment. Coupled with the ItTaxi app if you wish, transportation is easy. The apartment is in a solid period building built in the nineteen-twenties with a quaint elevator that never seemed busy. The apartment, while dated, is a true two-bed, two-bath large enough to accommodate two couples or a family of four easily. One bedroom is essentially a separate en-suitel. The washer and dryer were welcome, as was the full sized refrigerator, stove, electric coffee pot, toaster and older micro wave oven. Beds are firm but comfortable with plenty of linens and blankets. Alberto, the apartment manager, was helpful and responsive. The check in and out was easy. It was great to have the convenience of the apartment. In sum, the apartment, while basically and inexpensively furnished, was comfortable, very clean and we would highly recommend the neighborhood and the apartment.
