Cecilia's terrace is a fantastic place. Monti's neighborhood is very central in Rome and all the major sites are accessible either by a short walk; or by metro with a station two minutes from the house (Cavour). The area is also full of shops; pharmacies and restaurants within few minutes walking distance. But what really makes this place special is that you are living like the locals. The appartment is on the third floor of a very charming building in one of the narrow quiet streets. Very clean, very spacious and very well equipped. Whether traveling on business or leisure, you will find the house very comfortable. All the amenities were as described or better: the kitchen, the air conditioning, the bathrooms, the bedroom, etc... everything in the house is in an absolutely great shape; and it's a very bright place with windows all around!
Every morning, the neighborhood comes alive with the street sounds. The birds, the dogs, the people, the vespas, the cobblestones, the coffee machines and so on. A great way to start the day!
And Cecilia's place has a bonus: a wonderful large terrace furnished to accommodate 8 or even 10 people. Very spacious with lots of flowers...your own private garden! Perfect fo a morning coffee, an afternoon proseco, or an evening meal. A very special place indeed. The terrace is accessible from the house through a flight of stairs and there is also a second bathroom and a second kitchen on that level! An absolute treat!
Elena and Francesca were both great hosts and were able to not only provide tips on what to do, where to go and where to eat; but were in constant communication to make sure that everything is going well.
This is a very charming and comfortable house. A great value and a very special way to enjoy Rome!
