Simona's charming apartment now feels like my home in Rome. This was the second year I stayed here and it was as good or even better than last year. I love the apartment. It's safe, clean, adorable, and in a perfect part of the city. Although on a quiet side street, in less than 10 minutes you can be in beautiful Piazza Navona with lots of activity. There is a good taxi stand right there for trips to the train station of other parts of the city. A nice walk takes you to the Pantheon, Trastevere, and other sights. There are numerous restaurants in the neighborhood, including one I very much like a couple of doors down from the apartment. That is so nice when, after a day walking around the city, having to go far for dinner is just not something I want to do. There are also a couple of markets close by for sundries and groceries. My favorite things about the apartment, though, are the 2 large old windows that open to views over the rooftops and to the sound of church bells and songbirds. Totally enchanting.
Simona is a perfect host. She will arrange for a car to pick up and bring back to the airport if you want and is always accessible if your need. Simona's apartment is a bargain and a delight.
