Emilia’s apartment is super cute, stylish and well situated. The loft-experience we had there was really cool. It might seem daunting to take the narrow stairs up to the bed and back down, but it’s actually easy and sturdy. Just be careful not to bump your head on the ceiling when you’re up there!
Although the apartment is not close to the train station, bus 64 will drop you right in front of the alley that takes you to Emilia’s apartment (and back). Tickets are easy to purchase, just go to any ticket booth or store and ask for however many you need. After that, restaurants, gelaterias, bars, shops, a variety of fountains, and so much more await you on every corner. We walked everywhere, even to Vatican City (~25 min). Trevi Fountain is a short walk away, and so many other central hot spots you have to see while in Rome!
I’d be cautious of what you put in the washing machine. It ruined a few of my clothes as the cycle and tumbler was rough. If you’re able to find a user’s manual that explains things in English (or whatever language you speak), you’ll be better off. Detergent wasn’t supplied, so we bought a basic brand at the coop nearby and left it for future guests! When we messaged Filippo (Emilia’s friend who checked us in) for assistance, he didn’t respond. So just giving you a head’s up from now so you’re aware - don’t expect help after getting checked in.
PS. He also didn’t respond when we wanted to confirm the address (which is 6 Vicollo Savelli - not 6 6).
The shower strength is good, but the length of time for hot water isn’t that great so make use of every second and don’t “relax” too much in there. I have long curly hair and I didn’t even have a chance to condition my hair... My husband had no issues at least!
Other than those two minor issues, we enjoyed our stay very much and thought the location was probably one of the best from our entire Italian trip! With the transparency of above, this apartment is definitely a must-stay!
