Excellent location. Helga was patiently waiting for us despite arriving late after several delays and a technical hiccup with getting connected to the network (for all iPhone users, Vodafone IT is a MUCH better network than TIM - which was the “automatic” choice when we landed - Google maps didn’t work via TIM. In 2018 NO google maps = we might as well have been kidnapped.) This apartment is literally in the middle of everything. 15 min walk from the Vatican, the Trevi fountain, Spanish Steps, 30 min walk to the Colosseum, and tons of shops and restaurants around the corner. We made breakfast a few mornings at the apartment. There are 2 grocery store Carrefour Express locations within 5 min. Note there are 2 mini pans and minimal silverware, but with 4 people we made it work. And it’s nice to have the convenience of a fridge, stove etc. while on vacation.
Check out Cucina e Cantina, it’s 5 min away. We went there 2 nights in a row. The food is great. By far the best pizza in we had in Rome. You’ll probably have to wait outside, but they serve Prosecco and focaccia while you wait. Trust me it’s worth it.
Back to the apartment. We spent 3 nights at a pretty fancy hotel in London before we arrived in Rome, so the ikea mattress and pillows were a rough transition. All 4 of us in our 20’s were suffering from back pain the first few nights. But the convenience of the location and amenities were worth it.
