Perfect choice for Rome, especially the Vatican. Location is about 20 minute walk to the Vatican, 10 minutes walk to the Metro or cab stand. This is an apartment building on a street with other apartments so feels residential and quiet. A couple markets are close and within a block for any needs (wine, beer, soda, snacks, food).
Christiana was a super host, always responding quickly to any questions. I came in early in the day and she was very kind and accommodating. She also left a map in the room and directions to the major sites making everything easy.
Lastly, the apartment was spotless and clean. Comfortable bed. She left shampoo, etc in the shower. Bathroom is not small. Kitchen has a refrigerator, freezer, cooktop, oven, and washing machine for clothes. All very helpful. Dishes, sink, dish soap, washing machine detergent, towels were all available. She even left water and a bottle of beer in the refrigerator.
In short, this apartment and host is great, regardless of price. For the price you can’t do any better! If you are going to the Vatican, especially, you will not be disappointed!
