This was our first time in Rome and we prefer a spacious setting over a hotel room or rooms for our family of four with two teens.
We went with the 3 bedroom option and it was perfect. The place is LARGE, the natural light during the day (easily blacked out by the metal blinds), and the ceilings are HIGH (12’). As a native of NYC, I’d say this really is a GRAND apartment.
Each of the bedrooms is large and while it’s listed as double beds they look like US kings. Two BRDMs have adjacent bathroom with small hallways to them with a door - setup as master suites. The third bedroom is right off the living room and there is a third bathroom by the kitchen.
This was more than a enough space for our family to sprawl out and get some quiet time (away from each other ;-) after touring Rome for the day.
Apartment was super clean, the small elevator is quaint and unique and perfect for luggage and a couple of people. The place was stocked with the essentials- plates, cups, washer (no dryer, but a place to hang close), extra pillows/sheets, etc.
If there’s something not stocked that you’d like, the coop and pam supermarkets on the Main Street are within a 5-8 min walk away.
The air conditioning worked perfectly and kept the apartment pleasantly cool during a scorching hot summer.
Some useful info:
This place is steps away fro Plaza Navona and less than 10 mins from the Pantheon. We also walked to Tervi Fountain which was maybe 15 mins.
We walked to Colosseum and Castle Sant’Angelo (about 20-25 mins each) - If you’re not adverse to walking this is a great way to see and experience Rome.
We also walked to Roscioli for great pasta and there is a great gelato place right on the corner. There is also a hip, trendy, speakeasy for amazing cocktails (Jerry Thomas) about a 9 min walk away.
We did take a cab to the Vatican. Otherwise, we walked as this was a great part of town and the apartment is in a prime location.
We did have one small issue during our stay and relayed it to Guilio so I’m sure it will be taken care of for future guests.
Giulio met us at the apartment and made himself available to us. We didn’t reach out much but when we did he reached out within minutes. A great, great, great host.
Would we stay here again if we visit Rome again in the future? Absolutely, it would be our first choice.
