Best location ever! Literally the best bakery in town is around the corner (Il Foro) and many people think they have the best pizza, too. Literally the best market (Campo di Fiore) is steps away, yet the apartment is nice and quiet because it’s not literally on the square. On the same street, but away from the market, are two A+ restaurants. Oh, and on the market are the two best delis in the world. The guy who checked us in, Marcus, was super-helpful. The owner nicely offered to get us a driver from the airport to the apartment. We accidentally wound up booking a driver through someone else, but wow, is that a good idea, and it was $50 as opposed to a $48 cab (so worth it...the driver met us at baggage claim with a sign and made it so easy). There is a little rooftop deck, which is cool, and overlooks the neat roofs and other buildings, and such. If you can get an international plan on your cell phone, be sure to download the “Free Now” taxi app, and you can get a taxi from anywhere to anywhere for about ten bucks. No subway nearby, but that’s okay because every place is so close, like 6-8 blocks or so.
We made espressos and cappuccinos for breakfast with the stovetop Moka maker (easy if you know how), and made dinner every night in the kitchen. Oh, and the pastries from Il Forno were great both for breakfast and for snacks! And they have sandwiches in their second location, which is 20 feet away from their bakery. Nice!
Easy walking distance to the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, the Vatican/Sistine Chapel, and we also walked to the Colosseum/Forum (although you might want to take a taxi by using the phone app I mentioned...it would be perhaps 9 euros). If you walk to Largo Argentina to see the 2,000-year-old temples, check out the cat sanctuary and buy a calendar to support the kitties.
WiFi worked great, the place is beautiful, both beds were comfy, the dining table and dishes and microwave and fridge and stove and dishwasher made eating in easy. There’s a mini-mart next door that has sodas and milk, and a natural foods grocery store (which carries everything) a half-block away. Oh, and the best cheap restaurant/coffee-shop in the city is one block away (it has a weird name, Cafe Peru or Cafe Perru...but “Peru” must be a last name because it’s not Peruvian, it’s Italian).
