Let me start by saying you will never be better taken care in Rome than by Martin & his Picard team in terms of knowing "how to do Rome" from all of the info on the wiki he provides you once you book-in. And once there someone from the Picard team will check in on you almost daily. As for the Penthouse... it is CHARMING. The beds are very comfy and clean and the views are amazing from the rooftop terrace and master bedroom window. The only downside for us was the master bath was quite tired and in need of an update. Martin informed me that he is planning to do this over the winter. This will make the flat even more comfy and more of a sense of feeling clean. The kitchen is a bit dark but does have everything you need. The living room is quiet small as it is in the round- but oh so cute. I loved looking down from above from the bedroom floor down onto the living room. You really get a sense that you are living in a tower with all of the little steps leading you up from the living room /kitchen to the bedrooms and then eventually to the terrace! It is lovely. Finally you cannot beat the LOCATION! It is PERFECT! Our kids loved the area as did my husband and I. The location and the penthouse was the perfect place for our family of four! I only wish we could have used the rooftop terrace a but more as the weather turned while there - but still LOVED the neighborhood and all that it has to offer in the way of cafes, restaurants and location to ancient Rome! A fall break from school we will never forget. Thanks Martin and Team Picard!
