Our family of 4 (kids ages 5, 8) had a great stay at Blue Fig apartment in Rome. It’s a nice apartment in a fantastic location, and we thought a good value compared to other options we looked at in Rome.
The apartment: it’s in an older building on the 2nd floor (so 2 flights of stairs up a tight, circular staircase – not too bad), and well kept and in good condition, very clean. It's been updated so a lot of the amenities are newer. There is a good amount of space inside. We didn’t really use the kitchen but seemed to be well outfitted with everything you need to cook. Beds were not that comfortable – a little soft for our liking. Air conditioning worked good.
The location: We loved the location given the proximity to both Piazza Navona and Campo dei Fiori. Very centrally located – we walked to Vatican, Colosseum, Spanish Steps, Travestere, etc easily from the apartment. Lots of great spots to eat and good markets right around. And has a great neighborhood feel – doesn’t feel like you’re staying in a touristy location. Everything close by, but on a quiet street so wasn’t loud.
The host: Fabrizio was great to communicate with. Someone from his team met us at the apartment to check us in and show us everything. Check in and check out was very easy.
Would recommend!
