The Vatican apartments are an oasis in the midst of the hustle and bustle of Rome. The penthouse apartment was spacious and accommodated 5 adults and two children beautifully. The beds were comfortable and the bedrooms quiet - for Italy. The dining table was large enough for us to enjoy a dinner nightly. The terrace with its wonderful view was cool and a great place to relax and unwind after a day of sightseeing. Having the metro and bus stop a block away was convenient and made it easy to travel to sites far and wide. Nicolò is a great host, very accommodating, helpful, friendly and welcoming. We would definitely stay there again.
