We had an amazing stay and had everything that we needed. Location was perfect and close to the train station, many restaurants and entertainment. It was also not far from free shuttles to our cruise, around 15 minutes walk. Host was very accommodating, friendly, helpful with our luggage and recommendations. We would definitely return if we come back.
Great area close to restaurants & a sweet little convenience shop at back of building with excellent biscotti! Lively in the evening but very quiet at night. Walkable to buses, major sights & cruise port.
Apt. had every convenience including a washing machine, coffee/tea and b’fast items. Bed comfortable. Decor was colourful and full of charm. Perfect for our Italian getaway. Definitely returning to this gem!
It was in a great location. The port of Civitavecchia is a 15 min walk and easy to get too. 8 min walk from train station. No a/c accept for a portable one to use at night for the bedrooms only. We would definitely stay here again, the owner is so nice and took great care of his property. It was our first VRBO experience!

We stayed here before a cruise and the location was perfect. The property was amazing, clean, spacious and had everything we needed for our family. An excellent host and a property I would use again.
Centrally located easy walk to dining, cafes and grocery store. Such a lovely host. Walked to cruise port (with luggage) with no issues. Highly recommended!
Loved this apartment. It is a short walk from the train station and close to the port and a lot of lovely restaurants. The host was very helpful and responsive. I highly recommend!

We stayed between cruises. This a was an amazing apartment…even included a washing machine for laundry..!!! We will be booking this place in the future. Only 40 minutes from Rome by train and a very quiet area to walk around and explore.
In the ghetto as advertised , but a very cool upscale ghetto , premium location
Spacious well equipped and comfy

The property owner gives exceptional support to his visitors. We were met and shown around the apartment (much larger than expected) and he was an absolute delight from booking through to our leaving. Will definitely return. Deserves the five star rating plus more!!
Our host Orazio was amazing and so helpful. Met us at the train station and assisted with luggage. Explained everything, suggested restaurants and directions to cruise ship. His apartment is very clean and neat and everything you need. Exactly as shown in the photos.
This apartment is huge. Even has a tv room. Nicely decorated. Washing machine was a plus and there is a clothes line outside the kitchen window for drying. Bed was comfortable. Another plus was the pastries, jams, creamers and water. There is no toaster however. Great location too. I would come back and stay for a month.

The Italian charm of the apartment. Restaurants were everywhere, which is good , but it was noisy at night. Turning on ac solved the problem
Beautiful roomy suite. Full kitchen, large bedroom and living room. Nice bathroom and shower.
Perfect location to access the port. We walked, was about 15 minutes. Nice central neighborhood surrounded by many affordable restaurants and shops. 7 minute walk to the beach. Everything we needed for an overnight visit between cruises.
Checkin was very easy as the host met us and got us in. Pictures are accurate, it is actually even nicer than the pictures show. Felt very at home and cozy.
Thank you for sharing your home, we loved it and look forward to returning.
We couldn’t have been happier with this property for a quick overnight stay before our cruise embarked from the Civitavecchia port.
The property is well represented in the listing & pictures, and the property owner very attentive & helpful for everything needed.
We thoroughly enjoyed the location, as it sits tucked up above a bustling side street with restaurants that had a much more authentic feel (not sure how many tourists would naturally find themselves here if they didn’t have a reason to.)
With both a backpack & piece of luggage each, we found the walk from the train station to the property to be manageable (cobblestone streets are slightly tough on the luggage wheels). We also walked to the port the day of embarking which was longer & a little trickier, mostly because we didn’t fully know the best route to the port buses & had to figure that out on the fly.
Would definitely book here again for a stay in Civitavecchia, thank you!
Wondeful apartment just blocks away from the coast. Easy access to restaurants and the host provided excellent suggestions regarding food and getting to the cruise port
