This apartment was the perfect place for our week-long stay in Rome. Francesca was a great host, giving us plenty of ideas for local experiences. Her flat had enough room for our group of three to spread out, and separate bedrooms and bathrooms helped keep our travelers sane. We loved the option of grabbing a typically Roman morning espresso and pastry at the café right outside the apartment doors, but we also enjoyed cooking an American/English breakfast for ourselves in our well-appointed kitchen.
The location was extremely convenient and thankfully away from the throngs of tourists across the river. There is no reason to rent a car unless you are heading out of town during your stay. An entrance to the Ottaviano Metro station is on the same block. Our daily excursions into the city center started and ended with trips on the metro if we weren't in the mood for a walk. Saint Peter's square and the Vatican museums are so close - less than a 10 minute walk away from the front door. The Prati neighborhood has great restaurants and cafes, plenty of shopping, and many small and medium-sized market or grocery store options for your daily needs.
When we return to Rome, we'd love to stay here again!
