Nice apartment close to the airport with easy parking. We didn't travel by metro to the city, but it would be a good alternative for someone wanting to escape the crowds and noise. The archeological site nearby in Ostia Antica was very interesting and our host, Loretta, was very kind.

Wonderful Experience at Loretta’s Place!

We had an amazing experience at Loretta’s apartment! It’s just a 5 minute walk to the Mediterranean, shops. The grocery store is right across the street, which was super convenient. Ostia Lido train station is a 10 minute walk away and gets you to Rome in 30 minutes. The apartment was beautiful and super clean. Loretta was very helpful and friendly.

Loretta, our host, was a pleasure to deal with. She's warm, friendly, and caring. Our only regret is our stay was too short. Definitely plan on returning soon!!

I would recommend this property to everyone

I would recommend this property to everyone. It is in a fabulous location near the trains buses and especially the ocean. The apartment was probably one of the best I’ve ever stayed in. Loretta went out of her way to make sure that we had a taxi to take us to the airport on the day of departure which took a lot of stress off of us. she thought of everything to accommodate us. The apartment is bright and Homie. I cannot say enough about this property and the hostess. It is a diamond in the rough.

The perfect stay!

First of all, Loretta is the sweetest! All communication made us feel like she was so excited to have us. She made sure we had everything we needed prior to arriving, even offered to pick us up from the train station (which we ended up not needing). Her place was so cute, clean, and had everything we needed. It was a short 4 minute walk to the beach, a 1 minute walk to the bus station where you're able to take the train and then the subway very easily into Rome. She arranged for a taxi to pick us up 2 separate times - 1 when we had to be at the Vatican for a tour at 7:30 AM and the day we left for the airport. You will not be disappointed if you stay with Lorretta! If we're ever back in the area, we will definitely be staying at her place.

Loretta was amazingly helpful and met us from the airport bus to Ostia. We loved the flat, it was in a quiet neighbourhood with a supermarket across the road, the beach nearby and the train station to Rome and Ostia a 15 minute walk away. The flat was well equiped and it was just what we needed.

Well kept 2 bedroom apartment with a supermarket opposite and a bus stop around the corner.

The apartment is well equipped and comfortable with added touches by Loretta of fresh fruit and flowers. Loretta was a great host explaining how to use everything and how to get about locally and I to Rome's centre.If not driving a weekly all in bus train and metro ticket is well worth the 24 euros. We had a great time exploring.

Too far

We selected this property mainly because it was less pricey than staying in Rome but with the bus and train it takes an hour + to get to Rome. Next time we would come to this area only with a car. Lido Di Ostia is a very residential area and other than the beach and some shopping, it does not have much to offer. Loretta was really nice and accommodating. Finding her appartement was not straightforward on apple maps, and she had forgotten her cell phone at home that day therefore she was unreachable Apartment was as advertised . Everything is old in Italy; the kitchen is narrow, the coffee maker (typical italian coffee) leaked and gave a small amount of coffee. But we were out most of the time so we didn’t use the kitchen a lot. Loretta gave us a recommendation of a really nice beach restaurant and we ate really well there. Overall good

Apartment ok, Umgebung sehr dreckig

Mit dem Apartment waren wir größtenteils zufrieden. Allerdings war das Mobiliar etwas veraltet, teilweise waren die Schubladen defekt. Im Bad könnte das Silikon in der Dusche erneuert werden. Loretta war total lieb und nett. Wir durften sehr spät am Abend noch einchecken, weil unser Flug so spät ankam. Die Umgebung war leider sehr dreckig. Sehr viel Müll auf den Wegen und Straßen, es roch an jeder Ecke nach Urin und/oder Hundekot. Wir waren schon in vielen Orten in Südeuropa (und weltweit) zu Besuch, aber derartige Zustände sind uns kaum begegnet. Zwischenzeitlich hatten wir sogar überlegt vorzeitig abzureisen. Wir sind uns bewusst, dass Loretta persönlich dafür nichts kann. Sie hat sich für die Zustände entschuldigt. Die öffentlichen Strandabschnitte in der Nähe sind leider auch ziemlich dreckig (Müll, alte Zigaretten, keine sanitären Anlagen wie Toilette und/oder Dusche), deshalb sollte man den Eintritt der Strandbäder bei seiner Urlaubsplanung berücksichtigen.

The host made our stay among the best I have ever had.

This apartment would be perfect for 2 adults plus 2 children. A third adult might fit on the couch. The location is very good, with a major grocery store across the street, and a short walk to the beach. A couple of coffee shops and a new best-value Italian restaurant are also one block away. The apartment is quiet and well furnished; many house plants are on display. The best part of this listing is the host, who owns the property and is a delight to deal with.

Comfortable Apartment

We had a very short, one night stay at Loretta‘s apartment after flying in from Canada. Loretta was extremely patient and kind dealing with us, and our delayed arrival. The apartment was very comfortable and clean. Parking on the street was easy. It is very close to a supermarket. We walked to a nearby bustling Trattoria for a late dinner. We had a very pleasant stay. Thank you Loretta!

be with you?
I love music, photography, reading, bicycling, children (I have two even though they are not really little
children any longer). I have a French husband; actually, I met him during an adventurous trip to the
Sahara Desert!
Who better than me can understand your traveller's needs and desires?
