The location of the apartment is perfect and in quite a central location for everything. The Vatican City is about a 20 min walk.
There are a lot of stairs up to the apartment but it was very quiet when you got to the top.
There are some lovely places to eat not to far away.
There are continental breakfast bits in the apartment for the guests which really helped. The kitchen isn't really set up very for self catering - although we made do. There isn't any workspace except the top of the fridge which is quite small we used a small table from the lounge as an extra work top area. If all you want to do is make coffee in the morning then it's fine. There also wasn't much in the way of plates and cups (except plastic ones!)
The bathroom is small however everything was clean and worked well.
The balcony is small but a lovely outside space (it gets the sun in the morning)
Although on holiday we got up prompt and were at places of interest early and really felt the benefit of it.
