We loved staying in Alessandro’s cute little loft apartment. His wife met us for check in and gave us several suggestions on a map of how and where to go. It is in a square that has three cute restaurants with great food and out door seating. It is only a 5 minute walk to the Vatican and St Peter’s square and just across the bridge to the castle. The entrance to the Vatican museum is about 15 minutes since that is on the north side.
It is only 15 minutes to walk to The Trevi Fountain and 20 to the Roman forum and Coloseum.
The apartment was the perfect size for my husband, me and our two daughters aged 18 and 20. It was cozy but plenty of space since we mainly just slept there.
For our last morning there, my daughter wanted to get to the Trevi Fountain to take pictures before the crowds arrived and we had a 7am train to catch. Alessandro arranged a private car to pick us up at 5:30, take us to fountain, wait with our bags for 25 minutes while we took pictures, then take us directly to the train station. That was the only way we could time everything to work out and it worked perfectly! And the price was very reasonable. Thank you Alessandro!
