Thanks so much Victor & Emma, the apartment was perfect :) and in such a fantastic location, literally just around the corner from the colosseum! The place was absolutely spotless and had everything we could have wanted for a 3 night stay, fresh towels, shower gel & shampoo and most importantly, coffee in the cupboard!
On arrival we were met by a friend of Victor and Emma who explained everything we need to know about the apartment and the area, there were also maps and a list of places to eat and drink.
We also found a little bar around the corner which looked out onto the ruins and was open late, where we sat and had a late night glass of wine and enjoyed the spectacular views of a thunder and lighting storm overlooking the ruins, that was on Via Finelli - highly recommended. If you walk the other way en route to the colosseum there is the most amazing ice cream shop ever, best in Rome! Gelateria ai Cerchi - everything is freshly made from real fruit, yum!

I can't recommend this place highly enough, we had a brilliant time :)
