I highly recommend to stay at Susy Nini's place when you visit Rome! I was very happy to arrive there to a beautiful building and a beautiful and inviting apartment. She greeted me warmly and showed me the place and my living areas with lots of patience even though it was 11 PM. We were in contact before my trip and as soon as I landed. I stayed with her for 7 days. The location of the apartment is excellent by all considerations. It is close by walking - 15 minutes slow pace- to these sites: Piazza Navona going south over a bridge, Piazza del Popolo going north and across a small bridge, the Piazza di Spagna by crossing the closest small bridge and then walking straight ahead and crossing via del Corso, then from Spagna you can walk south to via Tritone to see see Trevi fountain (8 min) or southeast to the Piazza Barberini and Pallazo Barberini. One day, we went by bus to the Galleria Borghese which is a fantastic place to vist. Also, the other sections of the city, like Colloseum, Compidaglio, Roman Foro and Trastevere area can be easily reached from the apartment either by walking or by using the buses: 7 different lines who leave the bus station: Vittoria or Pza. Cavour which are 2 min walk from the apartment. Castle d'Angelo is about 5 minutes walk and is very beautiful. St. Pietro Square is about 15 min walk from the apartment and Vatican museums another 8 minutes.
The whole neighborhood of Prati is really nice and convenient. Plenty of good restaurants (2 nearby with decent prices), coffee bars, pubs, shopping areas with good clothes/ shoes stores, mini markets, specialty shops, delicatessens and more.
The apartment is great! Very, very clean. Fresh towels all the time. The main room and the bathroom are spacious with tall windows with a view to a traditonal Rome small street. The shower is a good size with hot water always ready. Also, it is easy to make the room completely dark. The bed is very comfortable. I had lots of privacy and was also able to use the kitchen when I wanted. I had a lovely breakfast with a variety of fresh food and coffee every morning on the dining table. Susy asked me the night before what I prefered to eat the next morning and she bought and placed the things in the fridge and countertop.
I think that this is the perfect place to stay when visiting Rome. This is a much better choice than staying in a 3* or 4* hotel and the location is better than in the middle of the city.
An extra bonus is the cat: Hugo who is so friendly and clever.
Thank you so much Susy!!!
