If you are traveling to Rome for the first time and want to be close to as many major attractions as possible, this is the place for you if you have 3, 4 or 5 people. A stone throw away from the Trevi fountain, it is also within walking distance for all the places we wanted to visit. The furthest we have to walk to is the Vatican City, which is about 45m walk, most other attractions are 20min or less away. We loved the fact that we can walk everywhere, a much needed break from driving a car. Being so close to the fountain, restaurants line the street right outside the courtyard. We tried a few of them, no one disappointed us. Once you close the main entrance door to the courtyard, the hustle and bustle of the street is then completely shut off. The quiet courtyard is well maintained with lush trees and bushes. A group of small turtles swimming in the clear water. They seemed to be used to the visitors, each time we come close, they swim at you quickly one after another probably waiting to be fed. HOA obviously does a good job keeping the common ground and archways very clean.
The apartment itself looks better than the pictures, entire place sparkling clean just as other posts mentioned. The living room is more than spacious for the three of us. AC definitely saves the day in the hot summer. Though the windows in the living room and guest bedroom face the street, outside noises can only be heard occasionally. At night, it is generally very quiet. Main bedroom faces the courtyard, so it is extremely quiet at all time. The only suggestion I have for the place is to supply enough bath tissues and shampoos. We have to run out to get more tissues towards the end of the stay and rely on our own shampoos we brought with us.
