We stayed at the Aquila Di Mare Hotel near the Rome airport on a Friday night. Upon arrival and luggage retrieval, we called and their car was there in less than 15 minutes. Sergio, the owner, was very friendly and helpful. The hotel is located about 8 km from the airport in Fiumicino. At the hotel we were greeted by his wife Loirdana (Lori). She got us checked in and showed us the room. It was very nice and clean with a queen bed, flat screen TV, adequate closet space and a very nice bathroom with modern shower and all the amenities including a bidet. There is, however, no room telephone. We spent a comfortable night. The next morning Sergio met us promptly at 7:30 and drove us back to the airport to pick up our rental car. The cost to pick us up and return us to the airport was 20 Euros. The price for the room, including breakfast was 69 Euros including tax. The Aquila Di Mare is located well off the beaten path in a quiet neighborhood, but it is near the airport and you do hear the aircraft taking off. Flights did stop going over the area a bit after 11 (at least we didn't hear any after that). The ocean is just a few blocks away and there are local restaurants nearby. Aquila Di Mare is a very nice place and we enjoyed our stay. Sergio and Lori went out of their way to make us feel welcome. read more
