About this property

*Fantastic** 2 Bedroom Apartment In Center Of Rome. Beautifully Remodeled!

The Avalon Rome is a completely renovated apartment in the center of Rome. With two beautifully decorated bedrooms, a large and comfortable living/dining room, and a fully equipped kitchen and bathroom, the Avalon is perfect for 2-6 guests.
The apartment’s location could not be more central for visiting the city of Rome. In one direction, a 5/10 minute walk will take you to the breathtaking Roman Forum and the Colosseum, as well as the Colle Oppio park (the hill where the Emperor Nero built his golden palace over 2000 years ago.) A 10 minute walk in the other direction will take you to the central train station, where trains leave by the hour for Florence, Venice, Naples and the Amalfi Coast. Two metro stops are also within a 10 minute walk of the Avalon: Line A will take you in a few minutes to the Spanish Steps with its incomparable shops, as well as to St. Peter’s Square and the Sistine Chapel. Only two stops on Line B will bring you to the majestic Circus Maximus, where in past millennia ancient Romans staged chariot races. Line B of the metro will also take you to the regular trains to Ostia, where in only thirty minutes you will arrive at the seaside to visit the ruins of Ostia Antica or have a leisurely seafood lunch on the beach.
Among the Avalon’s services are an English-speaking driver who can do not only simple airport transfers but can also take you on private day tours to places like Pompeii and Positano on the Amalfi Coast.
The Avalon Rome is a family operation, and our goal is to provide a true home away from home in what we believe is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. We look forward to hosting you.

10/10 Rome Accommodations

Great tips from the family not just for Rome but for other Italian cities as well. We utilized all the recommendations. One of our favorite meals came from the list.Quite close to the Metro and main train station, so it made it easy to go on day trips.

clarifying the location of the apartment

From the picture, the place looks like there is natural light coming into it. In fact, this place is on the ground/ first floor of a 7/8 story building looking out on the bottom of a very narrow utility courtyard. It is like living in a dark, humid cave, so either heat or AC and lights are necessary at all times. This is the main issue that should be clearer in the advertising of the apartment.

Perfect Apartment and Stay in Rome

This apartment is perfectly situated away from the main congestion of Rome. It is close to bothe the A and B lines of the metro. Metro stations are located just a few minutes walk away. The apartment is clean and well appointed. The neighborhood has incredible restaurants and bars (coffee and pastry shops). Sal was easy to communicate with and even arranged for a car to pick us up from the airport. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Rome.

Apartment in Rome!

Getting into apartment was a little problem, as host assistant was late and we got a little concerned. The apartment was as presented. Good location but not walkable to most attractions for me as I am 80, but ok for my grandchildren! The shower is very small as most in Italy but for maybe a large person 175 lbs or more not doable! Salvatore was n touch most all the time and solved any problems ! Gave us a nice book written by his wife about Napoli! Beds were comfy and aparment clean !

We really enjoyed our two week stay. The apartment was clean and well maintained. The kitchen was well appointed and the shower had great water pressure. There was no TV however the wifi was fantastically fast so we could stream shows on our iPhone. Salvatore was very responsive to anything we asked. Highly recommend.

Apartment in Rome

Salvatore was fabulous! He communicated with me any time I had a question . We arrived to Rome earlier than check in and he was kind enough to let us into the apartment early. He arranged transfers to and from the airport. He greeted us and made us feel extremely comfortable and at home . If you are looking for a place to stay in Rome, do not hesitate to work with Salvatore he is honest, reliable and all-around awesome! Thank you so much for a great time Salvatore !

The host Salvatore was excellent & helped organize airport pick up & drop off. The apartment was basic. There were 30 steps to navigate to get to the apartment & no elevator. Surprised to not have a T.V. The location was good.

Rome home

Sal is a wonderful host and extremely helpful with every concerns we have especially with the taxi strike and the train line closing for maintenance. He gave us information to navigate around these obstacles and was always available immediately to answer questions we had. Without Sal, we would have been stuck and could not have toured all the great places and restaurants.

Incredible location, in the heart of Roma. Old world charm and hospitality. Can't thank Salvatore enough for his wonderful welcome and all his guidance. My daughter and I had a wonderful 2-night stay on our way home. We celebrate our shared birthday, when we can, and Sal greeted us with a present!! So nice and thoughtful. Would highly recommend his beautiful place.

I highly recommend this comfortable and quiet apartment in Rome’s Monti district. Salvatore is great - he arranged a car for us from the airport and greeted us on check-in, explaining how everything in the apartment works. He was always available for any questions, and provided tips on where to go. We loved staying here and can’t wait to come back! Thanks again for everything, Salvatore!

The apartment is as cute as can be with everything you need in a small space. Nearby grocery for breakfast items or an in room dinner in the unlikely event that you don’t want some amazing Italian food. Above all, Sal was above and beyond the best host we’ve had with VRBO. His communication was exceptional, and he helped us arrange transportation, making our stay as seamless as possible. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay at the Avalon again and would recommend it to anyone.

Home away from home

Salvatore and his apartment exceeded our expectations. The location and set up was fantastic. The kitchen, rooms and bathrooms were fully equipped. Salvatore met us on our arrival and helped us get settled. Our little one had a nose bleed on the night that left his bedding stained. Salvatore was nice enough not to bother us about it. I really appreciated that. Would highly recommend this property and the owner and we know where we will be staying in our next visit.

About the host

Hosted by Salvatore Avallone

Host profile image
My husband is from Naples, Italy and I am from Washington, D.C. We have lived in Rome for the past fifteen years, and have two Italian/American children. We live by the Colosseum near The Avalon and adore this area of the city. We would love for our visitors to feel at home, to experience Italian lifestyle daily.

Why they chose this property

We bought the property at the beginning of 2014 and remodeled it thinking of what we appreciate when we travel: beauty, cleanliness, central location. On foot you can reach all of the important sites of Rome, from the Roman Forum to the churches of Santa Maria Maggiore and the Colosseum. We loved the idea of sharing with others the beauty of the landmarks of Rome and also the neighborhood spots that many tourists miss.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this apartment because it is perfectly located in the middle of a busy city, while at the same time peaceful. Because it is on an internal courtyard, it is a kind of quiet oasis. The decor of The Avalon brings together Italian beauty and American comfort.
