Lorenzo's apartment is conveniently located around the corner from the Metro station and a ten minute walk to the Colisseum and the Roman Forums. Within minutes you will find fresh pizza, groceries, a bank, pharmacy, fascinating shops featuring cutting edge fashion, housewares, and antiques. In other words you couldn't find a better location.

The long narrow apartment has a small kitchen, sofa bed, bathroom, and closet. Its beautifully appointed with the latest modern fixtures, television, two burner induction stove, and art. Its perfect for one or two people. Lorenzo is a gracious and welcoming host who will help orient you to the neighborhood.

The apartment has one drawback and that is the bar just down the street that attracts patrons who mingle and chat late into the night on the street. Some people don't mind the feeling of being in a cosmopolitan setting with lively night life, but others used to peace and quiet might find this unacceptable. If you are a light sleeper this may not work for you although earplugs will help. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Lorenzo's apartment and would happily return.

An aside for those unfamiliar with Rome; wear a money belt. The city is teeming with professional thieves who are especially abundant in crowded places and the metro. The Canadian embassy is handling 8-9 people a day who have been robbed.
