The apartment was easy to find using GPS via a mobile, using the address provided on Airbnb.
The distance from the station was just over 2 miles and took around 45 minutes to walk.
Walking was tiring, but manageable. There were a couple of hill to climb but nothing too strenuous.
We were greeted warmly outside by the owner, and he showed us around and apologised for the cleaner still being in the apartment, which we did not mind, just thankful to sit down after a long walk in the heat!
He provided us with a map and highlighted key areas, these were all a 30+ walk and around 1.5 miles walk from the apartment.
The apartment was very clean and comfortable, the air con was a huge plus as it was very hot during our stay. (As was the nice touch of 2 bottles of cold water in the fridge) It was a nice touch to also be provided with slippers so you didn’t slip on the tiles when walking after a shower, as well as, toiletries and soap to use.
There was WiFi in the apartment but for some reason my phone wouldn’t connect, but my partners did.
There was a tablet to use in the apartment also and lots of guide books and maps which was useful.
Outside of the apartment there are lots of places to eat and drink which you would need to use as there is only a microwave in the apartment, if you planned on cooking. We are at a lovely restaurant nearby smelling pizza and pasta.
just to the left of the apartment is a big shopping street and taxi stops, we used this to reach the Vatican. (€12)
Whilst we only stayed one night it was very comfortable and we were able to get around the city with ease from the apartment, with walking a little bit further we enjoyed the quote and relax atmosphere around he apartment rather than cramped and full of tourists.
Lorenzo was a kind and helpful host who made us feel welcome and safe and made sure we were okay before leaving the apartment.
We would stay again if going to Rome.
