Our stay in this apartment was wonderful! Antonella met us right outside her apartment when we arrived. She helped us take our bags up 3 stories (there is no lift, but that's ok with us) and gave us a tour around the apartment and suggested some places for eating. She continually checked up on us and replied promptly when we had any questions or concerns. The apartment itself is so beautiful! It really had an Italian feel and made us feel very homey. The view itself is so beautiful--I found myself taking pictures of it everyday! As for security, I really felt safe and secure there. My friends who live in Rome told me that the apartment is in the very center of Rome and close to everything, and that it is a very safe place to stay. To get in, there is a large door, and once inside, there is a gate. When inside the apartment, there is a huge bolt lock that turns 3 times so I really felt secure inside. This is located very close to Piazza Navona, and within walking distance of the Roman Forum, the Pantheon, the Trevi Fountain and other beautiful scenic places. Antonella and her apartment made our first trip to Rome so wonderful and beautiful, we hope to come back soon, and we know where we will stay!
