What a quirky little place! I was smitten by the pictures of the gorgeous sun room and terrace, and the apartment didn’t disappoint. Andrea met me in person to show me around, and was super helpful; always available over WhatsApp to answer questions I had.
The kitchen was well-furnished, and I had a great time cooking here; I especially loved the deep sinks. The bed and couch are both comfortable, the bathroom is spacious, and I loved that I could take a bath. You’ll get a great breeze (and view) from the two balconies downstairs.
Upstairs, the place comes to life, and I enjoyed sitting in the sun room and reading or writing (unfortunately heavy rain meant I had little use of the terrace proper). The view is enchanting, and the place looks just like the photos.
There’s certainly a strong nautical theme to the apartment; if you’ve ever spent time in the cabin of a ship, you’ll have some idea of the design/decor of the space. If you’re someone who struggles with stairs, I think you might have trouble on the floating staircase, but otherwise, the place is easy to get around.
It’s about a 10 minute walk from Re di Roma metro station, where you can get the main metro line through Rome. It’s also well connected by busses. I’d been to Rome a few times previously, and I enjoyed staying slightly out of the chaos of the city centre, but still being well connected. I had a rejuvenating time here, and would stay again.
