Mimma and Claudia’s apartment is located in the up market area of Prati, one of the more expensive areas in Rome. Despite being in a residential area, the main shopping area is only two blocks away. Shops are excellent. Everything from the larger department store of Coin to the small boutiques (clothes, jewellery) dotted around the area. We came with empty suitcases and we are returning with extra suitcases! For anyone who likes Lego there are 2 very good shops on the other side of the street to the apartment. Coffee shops and restaurants are never far away (from the cheap to the more expensive). Walking from the flat to all the Roman sites is easy and the best way to see Rome. We happily walked 15 km a day with 2 small children.
The flat itself is down a quiet street. The flat itself is lovely with very high ceilings and nicely furnished. A large comfortable sitting room with a large dining table that opens up onto a very pretty terrace (admittedly we didn’t use it as it was Xmas and cold). The bedrooms are large and comfortable. The 3 bedrooms are roughly the same size which is nice to find in a rental place. One of the bedrooms has an en suite shower.
Mimma and Claudia were very helpful, sorting out any queries/problems immediately. For example how to find a hairdresser willing to cut and do the hair for a family of four 2 days before Xmas when all the hairdressers we approached said flatly no! Mimma and Claudia sorted it for us!
We had a lovely time.
