Upon our arrival in Rome we were warmly greeted by Andrea outside of the apartment. The interior of the apartment is very impressive. It’s nicely decorated and extremely clean and uncluttered. There were so many great features but one of the most convenient features was the fact that there was a washing machine/dryer combo. Seeing that it was 90 plus degrees Fahrenheit, this truly came in handy. It was a lifesaver! Out of all of the places we stayed in Italy and we moved around quite a bit, Andrea’s place by far, had the most comfortable mattress and pillows. And I must mention that the air conditioning system was awesome! I can’t stress this enough because that is very important to me especially in the summer months. I have stayed at places that had weak ACs or no AC at all and it’s not comfortable. The system that Andrea has is absolutely wonderful. Like I stated earlier, it was extremely hot when we were in Rome and it was just the best feeling to come back to the Young Pope Apartment and to be able to turn on the air conditioning system and sleep so comfortably on that awesome mattress and cozy comforter. Andrea is a very caring host who has excellent communication skills and he’s extremely warm and friendly. You can’t beat the location for convenience especially if you want to spend some time at the Vatican because it is literally a 5 minute or less walk to the Vatican. You can see the St. Peter’s dome from the street outside of the apartment and it’s quite impressive! Another convenience is the market that is open 24 hours a day just a couple of blocks away. A pastry shop is literally right next door and there are restaurants within a minute or two walking distance. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay at the Young Pope apartment the next time you’re in Rome! I will definitely contact Andrea the next time I’m planning a trip back to Rome!
