The apartment is simply but comfortably furnished (which we loved) and in a perfect location for our family trip. We walked everywhere, taking in all the major sights and a few surprise ones on the way. However, for our second visit to the Coliseum, we jumped on a bus from a stop just one street away. After a couple of days sightseeing, our kids (10, 9 and 6) wanted to stay locally so we had fun exploring the market and the Leonardo da Vinci exhibition in the adjacent piazza. We bought breakfast in the market below and ate well at a number of the restaurants in and around Campo di Fiori. Later in the day I loved to throw open the floor-to-ceiling windows and sit in the glorious sunshine taking in all the activity below. Our kids loved the street performers, either watching from the 'balcony' or being serenaded as we ate around the table. And of course, ensuring they sampled all the gelato flavours on offer!
Barbara is a wonderful host: we booked the apartment the day before we arrived and she was fantastic in helping with our travel plans, arranging a key for our arrival (we arrived on Easter Sunday when she was away) and generally being there to assist with anything we needed. Every request was responded to quickly and efficiently. The internet works well in the living room but was a little slow in the bedroom. The showers are hot with good pressure.
We have recommended this apartment to friends and would go back again.
