Relais Garbatella is well-situated in a very local Roman neighborhood in Garbatella. A hop skip from Colosseum, 3 metro stops away on Line A and also conveniently accessible to Termini; might I mention that the Garbatella metro station is only 2.5 streets/blocks away. My liking of Relais Garbatella began well before stepping foot on the property. Luca’s above and beyond hospitality came in the form of openness with accommodation requests, answering questions about Rome, or needing extra supplies for the room, was top-notch. His politeness and ready to assist attitude were added bonus to what was a very delightful stay at Relais Garbatella.
As a first trip in Rome, I was surprised by the enormous size of the room with ample space for one, two or maybe three large suitcases to fold out. The room was spotless with modern furniture and a crisp bottle of complimentary water upon arrival. Relais Garbatella has a total of 3 guest rooms and with shared kitchen space, everyone encountered was respectful and courteous. The huge bed was comfortable and wake-up to fresh air from the window and balcony was a great way to start the day. We stayed a total of 4 days and ventured around the neighborhood to find 4 nearby supermarkets (what a treat). Luca provided suggestions with local eats which came in handy and was very responsive to any off the cuff question I might have had. I highly endorse a stay at Relais Garbatella.
