The two most important things you need for visiting Rome in summer: location, and air conditioning. Like, serious air conditioning. It was 37 and 38 degrees Celsius during my stay in this lovely little nook of an apartment. I chose the place because the reviews said it’s a cool spot and I could see that it’s deep inside an old stone building - in other words, sheltered from the blistering sun. This was a truly excellent choice. I’ve stayed at several places around Rome, some of them costing five times as much per night, but this was the most comfortable for sleeping. The memory foam mattress is a cut above the average, and the bedroom is dark and quiet. The central location is also perfect, right next to bars and restaurants. Keep in mind the tiny size of the space, which would make it tough for families with children or big people. But for me it was absolutely right.
