This was our first stop on our trip to Italy and we lucked out. NOTE: if you have trouble with stairs, you will have trouble with this apartment.
That said, we loved the location of Gianluca’s apartment near the Vatican. It is located on a quiet street and the rooftop patio is very charming. It was super convenient to the museums, only a 10-15 minute walk to Piazza Navona and 10 minute walk to the Ottaviano stop for the underground stop which could quickly take us to Termini and the Colosseum. From the apartment we explored all the way down to the Colosseum and just took the underground back to the apartment, following Gianluca’s suggested routing which worked out great. If we make it back to Rome, we’ll be sure to look Gianluca up.
