A great place to stay and use as a base to explore Rome!
This apartment is very conveniently located near the Barberini metro station and the Trevi fountain in the heart of Rome! Very convenient to get to all the sights by walking, taking the metro or taking a bus (off of Via Tritone).
The apartment is perfect for a family with 2 children as it has a king bed in 1 room and bunk beds in the second room.
It's a traditional Roman apartment with a tiny kitchen and bathroom; however, the tiny shower has a waterfall showerhead/hand held/body jets while the kitchen has a dishwasher!
The A/C cooled down most of the apartment quite well considering the blistering heat of Rome in July. We did use the fan in the master bedroom to help cool that room off a bit more. Our kids found the bunk bed room cool enough with the A/C from the living room.
Francesca and her husband are wonderful hosts. Her husband met us at the apartment to let us in just as our taxi dropped us off. And she always responded to my questions in advance of our stay so quickly.
Also of note:
* 2 grocery stores within walking distance - Coop and Carrefour
* The Gelatist (around the corner on Via Tritone)
* Tons of restaurants towards the Trevi fountain area
Would highly recommend for couples or a family of four.
