The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Esquilino
Old school vibe from the very beginning is the only way to describe the Esquilino neighbourhood. The Esquilino takes pride in being one of the oldest areas in Rome for its key location on one of the city’s famous seven hills. From an ancient neighbourhood to its modern incarnation as a multicultural hub, Esquilino always has something going on—polyglot vendors debate street artists while kids play pick-up basketball games. Look around you: this area isn’t like the historic centre. Liberty architecture, large piazzas, and long boulevards mix with archaic arches, secret side alleys, and beautiful churches like Santa Maria Maggiore.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I booked the shuttle to take us from the airport to Termini train station, the day before we arrived in Rome. Only $10 per person. The online booking was easy and their website gives you easy directions on how to find the bus. It goes every half hour. We were lucky enough to get on as soon as we got off the plane. They accept e-tickets on phone. We had to load our luggage underneath, but no big deal. The trip takes about an hour and if you have the time to spare it is a good way to see an every day snap shot of Rome. At the end of the journey, we asked the driver where the train station was and he was happy to respond. This is the cheapest way to get to Termini station, especially if your hotel is nearby or are training it to another town as we were.

It was a very cheap and convenient way for me to get to Piazza Cavour from the airport. Granted that I had just a small carry-on with me, I had no trouble boarding the bus and arrived at Piazza Cavour in 30 minutes paying 6€ only for the whole trip. The bus started boarding exactly as scheduled. I will definitely take it again.

Today, January 17th, the 6.30am bus ride from via Crescenzio, the insolent and threatening driver did not allow us to bring a small bag and a backpack onto the bus, threatening us that he would not let the bus leave with offensive words and rather reckless driving without maintaining a safe distance. security, we have the photos, then at the Valle Aurelia stop he let people get on with musical instruments, backpacks and deplorable behavior with swear words, stuff to be fired. There is no regulation on the site that prohibits bringing backpacks or small bags on board! However, he did not bother to make others respect this false rule and to maintain a safe distance while driving.

Gentilissima, come le abbiamo già spiegato per e-mail, abbiamo fatto delle indagini ed è emerso che la "piccola borsa" di cui parla Lei non era di dimensioni tali da poter essere sistemata sulla cappelliera ma andava riposta nella bagagliera. Se le viene indicato il rispetto di una regola non è per cattiveria o isolenza, infatti se il bagaglio a fronte di una frenata colpisce un passeggero ne siamo direttamente responsabili e lo è ancor di più l’autista alla guida del bus. Può essere che l’autista ed il ns staff non siano riusciti a farsi capire su questo punto ma riteniamo ingiusto essere insultati e aggrediti per aver chiesto il rispetto di una legge. La discussione da voi accesa lede il nostro onore, in quanto l'azienda si fonda sull'onestà e il rispetto delle leggi. Sul nostro sito è indicato "Con il tuo biglietto potrai portare gratuitamente un bagaglio che, indipendentemente dalle dimensioni e dal peso, dovrà essere collocato nel vano bagagli della navetta. Inoltre è consentito portare a bordo una borsa o uno zaino". Il bagalio messo in discussione non era una semplice borsa da donna ma era più grande e dunque andava riposto nella bagagliera. Nessuno vi ha impedito di salire a bordo, semplicemente si è richiesto il rispetto di una legge a tutela di tutti gli altri passeggeri. Grazie!

We have booked a bus to the city center of Rome and we have not been able to get on, even though we arrived 15 minutes in advance as indicated in the directions; thus having to wait more than an hour to catch the next one. The ticket they sell you on the website is for open hours, therefore it is worse than if you bought it there because you will stand in the same queue and you will not have exit priority with those who buy it at the time, who do buy for said specific time. That is, everyone who buys it passes before you; That is the reason the ticket guy gave us at 5:20 p.m. on December 31. when he let the couple behind us pass instead of us.

This was a terrible experience. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!! The service was terrible!
Dear customer service,
My girlfriend and I had booked one of your shuttle buses to go from Rome to the airport via Omio.
However, when the bus arrived and we wanted to get on, we were told that, although we were in the front row, we had to wait so that some other passengers could get on the bus. The bus driver did not mention the reason why, but we didn't think much of it. When these people got on and we could finally get on the bus, the bus driver told us in a very rude way that the bus was full and that we should get lost. We asked if there wasn't a way to join because otherwise we wouldn't be able to catch our flight. But instead of answering, he looked at us, ignored us, got on the bus, closed the doors and drove off.
I think all of this is absurd. First of all, I think it is needless for me to say that I should be able to count on the fact that, after buying tickets, I can actually get on the bus. I do not understand that even though I made a reservation, the bus is full on arrival. Secondly, I think the way the shuttle service treated me, my girlfriend and all the other customers left behind is completely ridiculous.

Booked two tickets on line for a 16:00 bus, arrived at the stop well in advance. Representative at the bus stop checked our tickets and then sold other tickets to people who just turned up. Then the bus came with not enough space on the bus for the pre sold tickets and the ones sold at the bus stop, meaning we couldn’t get on the bus. Representative told us another bus was coming n “10 mins” . It came eventually at 16:30. Absolutely appalling service. If tickets are sold then you should be able to get on the bus. It’s not hard.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
Tickets are open so customers can enjoy the time they want. There were many people and the bus was not enough, so we sent the second bus (additional one) to help travelers.

We were here 15 min before the 1:30 bus, but it was already full. So we had to wait 45 minutes for the next bus (they run every 30 min) from the airport. When the next one pulled up, to a long line of patiently waiting people, the company whisked a group of 20 teenagers, who had just arrived, right onto the bus, so only a few of us in the line were able to get on. It's about to depart and I see lots pf angry faces out my window. The bus itself is clean and nice, though the heater along the wall is dangerously hot; I accendentally rested my leg against it and was scalded. Not impressed.

Rude ticket inspector and driver making the process even more difficult and yelling. Not a nice way to end your holiday in Rome. Also you can bring only water to the bus, this was not mentioned anywhere during the booking. I recommend using the train instead to go to airport/Rome since it is more efficient, faster, and no yelling.

Very helpful staff on the bus who helped us buy tickets online as they are cheaper than buying on the bus. They stretched far to help us with the website so we avoided paying extra. Really a good experience.

Pretty much faultless. I caught the bus at the Vatican stop. A staff member arrived 10 mins before the bus to check tickets. The bus arrived on time and we were quick to depart. Arrived on time at the airport outside Departures. Excellent value for money.
