What a great stay. We had trouble finding a 6 night stay in Rome since we waited for the last minute to book. I messaged Lucilla about an apartment she had listed, but it was booked within the 15 minutes it took for her to reply. She did however have a B&B and another apartment over in the Vatican area and suggested we stay at the B&B for a couple of days and then move to the apartment around the corner.
This apartment was great. The bed and pillows were so comfortable (memory foam). Having high-speed internet and Netflix was awesome. When spending 6 nights in Rome it is nice to be able to get home and relax and watch a movie. The clothes washer is also a dryer. After traveling for the past 3 months in Europe, this was the first time we were able to dry our clothes in a machine. Hint when using the dryer...the machine can wash a full load, but the dryer can only dry half a load.
Emiliano takes care of the guests and was a awesome host suggesting itineraries and where to eat.
We weren't sure about staying in the Vatican area but it worked out great. The neighborhood was quite and made a nice break after dealing with the crowds all day on the other side of the river. We walked a lot, but when we were tired we walked the 3 blocks to the subway and rode public transportation. For only 1.50 Euro per person for the train/bus, it was tempting to alway ride and not walk.
