This apartment, located just steps from the Vatican and the Vatican Museum, is wonderful!
First...the amenities: I have to laugh, because after two weeks of climbing flight after flight of stairs with heavy suitcases throughout Italy, it was a nice surprise to find an apartment with an elevator. My son and I always jokingly moan and groan as we climb five stories at the end of a long day of walking, but it sure was nice to have that elevator option here! But beyond that, the apartment is very spacious, very clean, and nicely designed - it gave us plenty of room to claim our own space to have some "down time."
There is a fully stocked kitchen (which came supplied with bread, jelly and water bottles - thank you very much!)...complete with stove, oven, toaster, fridge, microwave, washer, etc., a nice bathroom and balcony with a nice view of the street below, and The Vatican walls.
We loved the location - a nice walk a bit "above" the busier part of Rome, which leads you over to The Spanish Steps area...and then we'd head down through the Trevi Fountain, the Piazza Navona, etc., every day. Or, we'd start the day nice and early with a very quick walk to The Vatican, which really couldn't have been more than 5 minutes. The area is full of shops and bakeries and restaurants and gelato options - no worries there.
Our hosts were fantastic - they met us at the street, then escorted us up to the apartment for an explanation of how things operate, what they'd recommend in the area, how to contact them should we have any issues or questions, etc.. And one of the best recommendations they gave us was for a local shuttle to Rome Airport - we paid $6E each, rather than a taxi fee of $50E. That saved us a lot of $$$$$!
Highly recommended - we'll stay here again!
