You really cannot beat this location! My husband and I walked everywhere from this apartment. We walked to Vatican City, Trastevere, the Colosseum, the Borghese Gardens, and beyond! It really is the best place to be central. Not to mention you are literally steps away from Piazza Navona. The street is full of restaurants and shops, yet the apartment is nestled away in a quiet, cozy place. The neighbors upstairs may be loud on occasion, but hey, you're in Italy. It is to be expected. My advice is to download a noise canceling app on your phone. Once mine was on, I no longer heard the stomping upstairs. There is a grocery market just up the street that has everything you need. There is a pastry shop in the other direction, coffee shops everywhere, honestly, anything you need is no more than a few feet away. Claudio provides a Moka Pot in his apartment, so we didn't even need to go get coffee in the morning. The apartment had all the accommodations we needed and more. The bed was comfortable. There was plenty of space for two people. Claudio ensures his guests are well taken care of. The bathroom and shower are rather tiny, but much of that is to be expected in Italy. We are not large people so it suited us well. We did not have a problem with the temperature of the water in the shower. We weren't quite sure how the washer/dryer worked, as the appliance didn't seem to do what the instructions said. As a result, we did not use it as we wanted. Other than that, we had all we needed. This was my third time in Rome, so I didn't require much help from Claudio, though I know he was willing to be available if needed. One reason I chose this apartment was that I knew it really was the best location. Not only did I find it to be a great location, but it had all I needed. Let's face it, if you're in Rome, how much time are you spending in the apartment? Sleep, shower, coffee, then go! But if you need more time at the apartment, it really does have all you need. Claudio was terrific about communicating with us. He met us at the apartment upon check in and check out to ensure all went well. Claudio is a kind and very gracious host. It is obvious he truly cares about your stay in his apartment. I highly recommend staying in Claudio's apartment.
