Rome airport shuttle

[Parigi]

Does anyone have a favorite Rome airport shuttle ?
There used to be one, whom everyone used. I used it too and was very happy with it. That was 6, 7 years ago, and I can't find the contact info.
I know I know, Rome taxis now have a flat fee for airport<->center, but if anyone of you knows a reliable, good car service, I prefer that. Merci.

I haven't used a car service in several years, on my own in Rome I've started using the bus from the airport if I'm going to Termini (because the LE service annoys me) or the local train for other parts of Rome.

The last service I used was Bob's and I was very pleased with them, we booked at the very last minute (the night before) and they arrived at our apartment 15 minutes early.

I have a sort of favorite shuttle but it includes a B & B in Fumicino. Maybe this is the wrong place to post, but Pauline can let me know!

When I am departing FCO I now always stay with Piero, a retired airline steward, at his neat, tidy B & B just 2 blocks from the beach. He not only has a reasonable nightly fee of 50 euro but it includes a pick up and drop off at the airport. So, if you are coming into FCO from Rome or anywhere you call him (after you've reserved ahead by email) from terminal 3 outside fountain and he comes to pick you and take you to his place. It is secure, safe and walking distance to the best seafood restaurant ever, Amalindo. Then, next day, he takes you back to the airport for your flight. He's a darling and when I was there in October I asked for another restaurant recommendation as we were there two day (wanted to see Ostia Antica again), for our second night. He took us to this amazing little house, filled with Italians and the best just butchered steak meal (sorry, Pauline & Steve, but I do indulge sometimes), soup to nuts for 22 euros. And then we walked home about 8 blocks.

Thanks very much for the info. I just came home from Rome.
The shuttle that Andrew suggested,

worked out perfectly. Christian was on time both times and perfectly charming. I recommend this service, especially Christian, to all of you.
And for my purposes I prefer to stay in Rome as much as possible. My trip was short, only 2 weeks. No need for me to explore a beach near the airport.

I only recommend this if one has a very early flight out of FCO and need a sure, inexpensive overnight stay...Have fun!

That makes sense. Sounds much nicer than an airport hotel.

And waaayyy cheaper. The Hilton is now over $200 a night.
