This location simply CANNOT be beat! You are in the heart of a romantic neighborhood and smack-dab in the middle of every location a tourist would possibly want to visit in Rome. You can escape from the thoroughfare's bustle in an instant - surrounded by charming alleys, outdoor cafes, and tucked-in shops. The location is so prime that - on multiple occasions - we went out for a short evening walk and *whoops!* ended up at the Vatican, *whoops!* ended up at Trevi Fountain, *whoops!* ended up at Trajan's Market, etc. If you don't want to wind your way through said beautiful alleys to reach your destinations, the bus stop is mere steps from the front door. (For buses and attractions, buy the all-encompassing Roma Pass at Museo di Roma next door in Piazza Navona; there won't be a line.)
We spent most of our time out and about; we didn't need an apartment to be anything other than "home base" for bathroom and passing out at night. The bed is immensely comfortable and we were supremely grateful for the other homey touches (Tea pot! Umbrella!) that turned out to be necessities! We can only offer two comments on the room itself: (1) if you have wrist/carpal tunnel issues, tricking the key into opening the front door is not what the doctor ordered, and (2) folks over 5'10" or 175lbs *might* get stuck in the shower while washing their hair (hilarious photos are for personal use only). ;) We treat ourselves to more amenities in other destinations, but this was exactly right for our type of on-the-go artifact-lusting history-nerd travels.
Silvia's tips for restaurants helped us overcome the decision fatigue endemic in places with great food smells around EVERY CORNER. I cannot rave enough about the location. You want to be in the heart of Rome? Silvia's got it :)
