Ciao tutti,
Our first trip to Rome was very memorable, far better than we had hoped for and imagined. Communication with Paola was prompt and exceptional at all times. She offered to hire a car service for us from the airport which was a very nice touch. Fortunately, we had already made transportation arrangements.
Our flight landed at 9:45 in the morning which meant that we would be early for check-in. Paola was able to accomodate our early arrival and had her charming, english speaking son meet us. The apartment was clean, very quiet and is located on the 4th floor of an historic building on an idyllic street lined with small shops, many restaurants and a small market in the Piazza Navona area. The street itself was formerly a pilgrim route to the Vatican. It is a 5 minute walk across the river to Castel Sant'Angelo and 25 minutes by foot to the Vatican. Almost all of Rome is within walking distance.
The bathroom is very modern with a large shower and ample counter space. The kitchen is well equiped but who wants to cook when lovely restaurants are literally steps away from the front door of the building. When not walking, which was most of the time, we were easliy and economically able to make use of the recommended taxis and Uber when time was important.
Do not hesitate to book this apartment and do so early. When we left, it was booked solid through October. We look forward to our return visit to Rome and to this apartment. Grazie Paola!
