Fantastic apartment in the perfect location to discover Rome.
This is a charming apartment in an old building, decorated in charming shabby chic style. We were received by its owner, Paola, who was extremely helpful and responsive. We have been to Rome many times but it is the first time we stay in this neighborhood and absolutely loved it: the apartment is on a pedestrian street so far away from the chaos of Rome, 5 minutes away from St. Peter’s basilica snd 10-15 minutes away from the Vatican Museums (perfect if, like us, you could only get tickets for the 7:30 slot). Many restaurants and cafés all around, and about 20 minutes away from Piazza Navona.
We were driving but were able to find a garage to park the car a block away (expensive but worthwhile).
The only real downside to the apartment is that it has no lift, so you need to go up and down three floors with heavy luggage. We were told a lift might be installed next year so this might change.
Other details were minor (the kitchen could be better equipped, we found one of the beds very hard, but the other two were very comfortable), but this might not be an issue for other people.
Highly recommended.
