I don't know where I could even possibly start to describe the "hostess with the mostess" that is Aunt Monica, Vincenzino and their beautiful apartment.
Myself and 3 of my girlfriends spent a long weekend here in June and all fell in love with the city, largely thanks to Aunt Monica (and her unbelievably good restaurant recommendations).
From within minutes of booking the apartment, Aunt Monica had messaged asking about our trip so she could help us make it perfect, organising private transfers, arranging with the best local patisserie a birthday cake (which was delicious) for one of the girls and seeing if we needed any sight-seeing tickets sorted.
We arrived on the Friday and we're instantly welcomed with open arms into the beautiful apartment, taken on a tour round the apartment and so generously left a bottle of Prosecco for our friends bday and a hand drawn map (perfect for non map readers!) complete with recommendations. The location of the apartment COULD NOT BE ANY BETTER. 5 mins walk from the Trevi fountain and a further 10 mins from the colloseum and Spanish steps.
The beds are comfy, there is aircon, the showers great (make sure you rub the lucky tiles in the bathroom), there's a nespresso machine and even glitter in the old roman fountain in the bedroom.
We instantly felt like we were a home away from home staying with our Italian family and can't wait to go back. The city is beautiful, the apartment is beautiful and Aunt Monica is beautiful. If you're going to Rome you MUST stay here.
