Large apartment directly across from the colosseum. Walking distance to many great local restaurants, bars, a super market and popular local attractions. Right behind the Metro station and bus routes to get you everywhere you need to go. We were met by the lovely Tatiana who showed us to our place, walked us through the property and provided many suggestions for local food and wine. She was a delight and extremely helpful. This place is HUGE. The kitchen is lovely and has a Nespresso coffee maker, all appliances and a dishwasher. There is also a washer AND a dryer which is rare in Italy. The furnishings are a mix of antiques. The elevator lift is extremely helpful to save your legs for all the walking you do in Italy. The property has a private door from the street and a door person on staff most of the day so it is extremely safe. On the roof there is a shared terrace that overlooks the colosseum, which makes it the perfect spot to watch the sun go down and hard to leave and go elsewhere after a long day. We never saw people up there except for us so it was basically private. The lift takes you directly to the apartment and there is only one flight to walk up to get to the terrace. The key to the terrace door is original, so have patience when turning it to gain access. Worth noting that Rome is a major city and can be pretty noisy; if you are a light sleeper this is not the property for you. We deducted one star for the master bedroom bed frame and mattress which need updating.
