We feel so fortunate to have found Sveva's lovely penthouse flat. Sveva was waiting at the curb when our taxi arrived and she and her husband ushered us up to the unit and assisted us with our luggage. It was the best check-in experience ever.
The unit was beautifully decorated yet very comfortable. The spacious outdoor patio was the perfect place to sit and have our morning coffee and to relax in the evening with our favorite adult beverage. The kitchen was stocked with the necessary items like paper towels, condiments and garbage bags. It was also stocked with some basic food items and the wine that was waiting for us was perfect to toast our arrival. Several bottles of liquor were also available.
We loved the location. Even though the building is on a busy thoroughfare, the unit is in the back of the building facing a quiet residential area. A subway station and bus stop are located directly in front of the building. A market and pharmacy are across the street and there are a number of nice restaurants within easy walking distance. The fact that the apartment is in the west part of the city makes it more convenient for travel to and from the airport and cruise port.
We highly recommend Sveva's place and look forward to staying there again the next time we visit Rome.
