LOCATION...LOCATION...LOCATION!
The name says it all....Rome your Home Colosseo. This home is in the center of the Ancient Roman sights, including but not limited to, the Colosseum. Steps away from Via del Fori Imperiali, which is where most of the sights you want to visit are. The building is steps away from one of the main streets, Via Cavour and accessible by Metro from Roma Termini. Security in the building is great with 4 levels of security to your apartment. There is a working lift, just a few steps up. You may need to do two trips, with luggage. The host was there to help us check in and assisted with luggage.
Make sure you ask how to operate the shower in the master bathroom. Ask him to show you where the fuse box is (new apartment in old building...good to know in case you trip a fuse with the blowdryer ;-)
Most importantly, the owners just installed a new air conditioning system. But if you like to sleep with fresh air, The windows are large and open up 3 different ways. Ask the host to show you.
There is an Irish bar below and a pizza place. Yes there is noise from the street. But with the windows closed and air on, you cannot hear it. You can get take away and eat at Home in your spacious apartment, or have some wine relaxing in the couch, while you use the washer to get some clothes clean.
Plenty of restaurants and markets within walking distance. Dont eat on Via Cavour- go to the alley behind it like Via Della Madonna, Via Serpenti. We went to the places the Host recommended and were so happy we did!
The hosts communicate very well with you and follow up. We had an issue with the air conditioning, and they came right away and stayed in communication with us.
Flavia and her husband along with their colleagues are really Super Hosts. I recommend this home for your Rome stay.
