This was a TERRIFIC choice.
A block away from the Basilica di San Giovanni in Laterano - with the SACRED STEPS and the doors POPE-stolen from the Senate - this is in a GENUINE, TASTEFUL two-bedroom Italian home. Staying here for just a few days, down the street FROM THE COLOSSEUM, and trattorias, pizzerias and bakeries, we were able to WALK EVERYWHERE you might want to go, from the Vatican to Borghese Gallery, the Spanish Steps and the Keats-Shelley House, to Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon, the cat sanctuary/location of J. Caesar’s murder, and Trastevere!!
The apartment was CLEAN and THE RIGHT SIZE for a medium (traveling) FAMILY OF FOUR, and it had VERY COMFORTABLE beds, STRONG and RELIABLE WIFI, a selection of interesting and intelligent books in (mainly) Italian and EXCELLENT Italy-related travel books in English.
Giovanni, besides being a COMMUNICATIVE and VERY LIKABLE person, was SUPER HELPFUL and accommodating. We took him up on his restaurant recommendations and were NOT DISAPPOINTED.
GETTING TO THE AIRPORT!!
RATHER THAN take the bus available at Termini Station as we have in the past, Giovanni ARRANGED A TAXI to drive us to the airport. This was A GREAT OPTION. The driver arrived EARLY, the vehicle was spacious and clean, and the entire process was EASY and seamless.
