The apartment was mere steps away from the Vatican museum entrance and metro lines were a few blocks away to travel to other parts of Rome. We loved the feel of the neighborhood. Despite the proximity to the tourist crowds, within a few blocks of walking, we were mostly with other locals enjoying great food in a safe environment. Francesco was very helpful and kind. He made check in and out easy, arranged a ride to the airport, and gave us a list of recommended restaurants and sites to see. The apartment is quite spacious and we were even able to do laundry, which was a big plus! The gelato places he noted were fantastic and reasonable. The apartment was quiet despite being so close to a major tourist destination. We had a great time in the apartment and would gladly return. Thanks Francesco!
