REALLY the view from the balcony is magnificent and especially from the jacuzzi with a glass of wine :) as suggested by mirko :)
We ended our Mediterranean cruise in Rome and stayed for 3 days before heading home. We were with 4 other couples, 2 couples stayed and the Boscolo Exedra which was out of our budget, however, it turned out that we(me my husband and other 2 couples ) had the better place! It was great for having friends over and at the end of the day we sat out on our balcony, enjoyed the Rome evening and a glass of wine. The apartment was BIG , CLEAN and neat.Perfect for 3 couples. I am a clean freak and everything was clean. All 3 bathrooms perfect. everything a clean freak loves. The location is great! We grabbed pastries and cappuccinos in the morning from one of the shops below. We walked to the Colosseum(1min) to meet our friends who took an Uber. We bought a bottle of wine from one of the shops within walking distance and, of course, some Limoncello. You really can walk anywhere (I would suggest renting segways and using a tour guide--this was a highlight for us. Vladimir give us a tour of the Vatican and then a couple of days later a Segway Tour of Rome. We loved the Balcony in front Colosseum and especially the 2 jacuzzi UNIQUE VIEW FROM IT. We sat out on the balcony every night. The night before the Celebration of some special event, a choir was rehearsing at the Colosseum and you could hear them loud and clear, it was beautiful. I wish I could post it here. On the other nights we enjoyed a glass of wine and listening to the street below and the homes across the alley way. (Wish I had candles) We stocked our fridge with water and snacks. It is great to have the fridge, wine glasses, dishes and cutlery. There was a blowdryer and converters which was wonderful. The bed was comfortable. We enjoyed the elevator "experience". It is a small European elevator-I gave 5 stars, not a "5 star" hotel rating as in overly extravegant, but It has everything you need, is in a great location, CLEAN, new bathrooms, stocked with the supplies you need, really nice :), great Balcony, coffee shops below, good size (our friends at the Boscolo had a room half the size and looked forward to getting out of it in the mornings.) I would recommend this as a great place to stay , especially for big company like us. Thanks Mirko
