The location was fantastic. It’s a 3 minute walk to the Pantheon and there are a couple restaurants literally next door to the apartment building. There’s also a small square 2 minutes away that had more restaurants and gelato. It’s about a 15 minute taxi ride to the train station, and about a 20 minute taxi ride to the colosseum. The terrace was nice at night to have a bottle of wine and some dessert while listening to the music coming from the restaurants down below. However, the 4 flights of stairs up to the apartment can be a workout, and if you’re leaving and coming back to the apartment a few times each day, it can get tiring. The air conditioning took awhile to cool the apartment down, so the first night was a little hard to sleep. However, Italy was in the middle of a heat wave, so it was very hot outside (95-98°F). The apartment never really got cold, but it was just comfortable enough. Alessia was very responsive to any questions we had, and was nice enough to let us check in early because our train got into Rome so early.
