Apartment: excellent. Clean. Beds are VERY comfortable. Air conditioning unit is in each bedroom.
Location: doesn’t get any better.
- 7 min walk to colosseum, from there you can get on Hop on/off bus,
- 10 min walk to Manzoni station,
- Neighboring restaurants are great, especially Marco G (best antipasti and pastas)
- lots of corner shops to buy breakfast items from (watch the prices and what is being entered onto the receipt - the shop workers [who are not Italian] like to rip off tourists.
General tips about Rome:
-Vatican museum: a disaster.
Do buy skip the line ticket and as early in the morning as possible. I would recommend a guided tour. You won’t have time to look/read descriptions as the crowd will be pushing you. It is Incredibly Crowded. Worse than NYC on NEw Years Eve.
If you buy stamps in Vatican, you can only send your mail from Vatican. You can’t send it from Rome as advertised. Rome’s post office worker informed me.
- Restaurants charge 4 Euros per 1L. buy water elsewhere.
