Michele arranged a car to pick us up at the airport which went to plan despite us being slightly late. This is worth doing as you get to the apartment in comfort and feel like a bit of a star!!
The apartment had everything you'd need, including hairdryer, iron and board, pots pans, the whole lot!
The location is ideal for all modes of transport as metro is at the bottom of the road. The Colesseum is literally round the corner and the hop on hop off bus goes from there to all sightseeing places like Vatican etc. The other option is to get a Romapass as it gets you into places free or at a reduced cost.
There are plenty of guide books and maps to borrow at the apartment so no need to bring heavy books with you. The apartment is lovely and clean with fresh linen and towels.
Only downside was the noise level at night as you're above bars and eateries, the noise often went on until 01.30. Having said that I'd stay again, I'd just take ear plugs with me!
Make sure you buy an ice cream every day from the gelato near the apartment, lovely flavours and you get more for your money. Eating ice cream on the apartment terrace is a great way to relax before your next Roman adventure!
