Sparkling clean, spacious, airy, lots of natural light, comfortable furnishings and kitchen was well-equipped so that a family can easily make meals effortlessly, if required. Ample hot water with good pressure so multiple serial showers are no problem, washing machine, dishwasher, etc -- it will feel like home!
NOTE: If you trip the breakers (easy to do in these old buildings), the main electrical panel is on ground floor.
The building's internal courtyard is charming. A little weedy but the lovely citrus and pomegranate trees make up for that.
The apartment is 10 minutes' walk from St Peter's Basilica (view is most definitely worth the climb up the Duomo!) and 20-30 minutes from Torre Argentina and the cat sanctuary, Vittorio Emanuele memorial, Colosseo, forum etc. Prati is lively during the day but quiet at night. We never felt unsafe walking, even at night with our young daughter. A fresh market is 5 minutes' walk away, a medium-size Carrefour also 5 minutes away (another direction). NOTE: The Carrefour is tucked away in a cul-de-sac behind industrial buildings so is a little tricky to find. Once you do find it, it's easy to walk to from the apartment.
Of course we tried Bonci's Pizzarium -- it was only 10 minutes from the apartment! Sadly, we were underwhelmed. Interesting toppings but the crust was doughy and had that day-old reheated pizza quality. Bear in mind we're not huge fans of pizza al taglio. YMMV. OTOH the dark chocolate cookies and brownies at Bonci were amazing (and we're not usually dessert eaters). Flavourful, not too sweet, perfect with espresso or tea.
