WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PROPERTY! Two couples- two rooms. We departed from the Rome train station and the management of La Lira had sent us directions to their recommended shuttle service. As the directions noted, we met our shuttle service (35 Euros) and took a short ride to our B&B. We were met by Alex who helped check us in and gave each couple three keys. Each key had a purpose and like the fortunes in Fort Knox, we felt completely safe and secure. The rooms were clean and neat and the beds were extremely comfortable. What we first noticed about the rooms were how quiet they were, it was like being in a silent sound chamber. The location is amazing! Walk a block away and you are greeted with large boats, a canal and a bridge leading to a line of restaurants. In the morning, you are greeted by a small continental breakfast of yogurt, croissants, coffee and juice. The owner(s) are there to greet you and answer any questions you may have. Of note, our rooms were on the second floor and the building has a small elevator installed to transport people and luggage up to the second floor.
The owners took care of arranging our transportation needs to Rome. We paid 85 Euros for a taxi to Rome and if you want the train, it’s 35 Euros to the train station and then the train tickets, 13 Euros each. We elected to hire a shuttle to Rome for 85 Euros which was equal to or less than the shuttle and train ride. We were very lucky to have found Luigi De Cristofaro
