Catia and her husband, Gigi, are the perfect hosts. They treated us like family. The apartment itself is ideally located, it's clean and in pristine condition with thoughtful touches everywhere. It is beautifully decorated with every amenity that was needed for our family of four (17 and 20 year old), comfortable and quiet. It was especially great to have two full baths in the apartment. There were even shampoo and soaps and plenty of TP available (which was exceptional) for our use. Nearby restaurants and gelaterias are fantastic.
A very short distance to the Vatican, with views of St. Peter's Basilica from the entrance to the building... Catia is also an experienced and knowledgeable Vatican guide, and our tour of the Vatican and St. Peter's Basilica with her was one of the highlights of our entire vacation.
Catia and Gigi were accommodating and responsive - we feel that we have made lifelong friends. I would give this place 10 stars if that was an option.
Our stay in Rome was really made all the more special and wonderful having this place to come home to at the end of very busy sightseeing and shopping days. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
