Travel tips and advice for Appartamento GabrieleSteffen Coleman, New Milford, CT, United States September 19, 2010
Zena Warren, Opotiki, New Zealand May 15, 2010 - Just enjoy it, Gabriele lives next door but he is not at all invasive and after giving us a few handy tips we did not see him again until we left.
-
Bus 64 (2 mins walk) is a must and walking up the street to the Garibaldi Gardens gives you an excellent view of Roma.
Sandra Berzins, Carlingford, Australia October 18, 2009 - It is very central to St Peters and the city can be accessed by foot or by the 64 bus which was excellent.
Eileen Graziano, Lewisville, Texas, United States May 30, 2009 - The switch for the hot water in the bathroom needs to be left on (top part pushed in)!
-
Buy a 4 pack of bottled water at the grocery store (bottom of hill take a left on via Fornaci, 1/3 mile up on right) then refill at the apartment to bring with you during the day. You can refill as needed during your walks around the city from the numerous water spigots.
-
Bus 64 (right at the bottom of the hill - 1 Euro) takes you to downtown (Templi Repubblicani). From there it is a few minutes walk to anywhere.
-
The Metro station (Ottaviano) is within 10 minutes walk. Take shortcut straight across St Peter's Square. Buy tickets from the machine in the station (1 Euro per ride) 2 stops to Santa Maria Del Popolo, 3 stops to the Spanish Steps, 4 to the Triton Fountain, 6 to the main train station.
-
Buy a good guide book that has a city map!
-
Don't try to see everything in one day! Break the city into sections. One day alone for the Vatican and St Peter's (buy Vatican Museum tickets on line in advance and skip the very long lines), a day for the ancient city (Forum, Palatine Hill, Colosseum), a day for the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, Piazza Navona, and a whole day for churches (we did not get to see all the churches we wanted because most are closed for a couple of hours at lunchtime - check your guidebook!)
-
After walking 5 or 6 hours a day, coming home to a cold Peroni from the fridge and sitting on the terrace was wonderful!
Marcia Harris, Mercer Island, WA, United States May 23, 2009 - Read the guest comment book for tips on restaurants, grocery store, and other tips.
