Vito's apartment was better than the pictures and description. We really appreciated the way that Vito keep the lines of communication open as it got closer to our arrival. He provided great instructions on the best way to get from the train station to the apartment, was there when we arrived, and explained the apartment systems well. He also took the time to show us on a map the various points of interest.

We discussed the best way to get to the airport at the end of our stay and he offered to reserve us a car for us. At the end of our stay, the driver arrived right on time and took us to the airport without complication.

The apartment itself is furnished well. We fixed several meals using the items available. There is a great super-market just a few blocks away which made it really nice. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen modern. The bathroom was bright and open and the shower was spacious.

If you are reading this then you have probably looked at the pictures of the patio. I can assure you that it is as wonderful as it appears on line. The apartment (and patio) are on the top floor of the building and you have a wonderful view of the city. We spent each morning on the patio with breakfast and coffee. It was a great place to plan our day's activities. The washing machine is also in a stylish cabinet on the patio. We were able to do our laundry as needed and then let it dry on the rack while gone for the day. Half of the patio is covered so it is useable regardless of weather.

From a location perspective, the apartment was right next to the river. You can see it from the patio. You can also see the dome of St. Peter's Basilica, the tops of several other tall landmarks, and the major sites are a short walk away.
