Location, location, location! An exceptional spot that puts you in close walking distance to several major archeological and historical sights, great museums, fabulous restaurants, one of Rome’s most outstanding bakeries, the vegetable and fruit market at Campo Fiori, the attractions of Trastevere, and public transportation. We spent one week in Rome and almost everything we did was within walking distance.
The apartment itself is both comfortable and quiet — you get the outstanding central location but are on the back side of the building and look out at charming back streets. It was a great place to retreat from a heavy morning of seeing the sights and to rest before launching forth again after the siesta period. The kitchen arrangement is basic but worked well for us. (There are so many great coffee shops and restaurants around that we had only simple meals with fresh food bought from the market at Campo Fiori). The hot water supply was a little eccentric and occasionally resulted in some surprises in the shower, but this was not enough to mar our stay.
Giulia was an excellent and attentive host. She arranged airport pick-up and quickly adjusted when we missed our connection and arrived on a later flight. She was conscientious in checking in to see how things were going and was quick in responding to specific questions.
