The apartment was a great place to stay if you want easy and quick access to all the sights of central Rome! We walked to and from the Vatican Museum, Colosseum, Spanish Steps, Trevi, Pantheon, and Piazza Navona (sits right on it). The Colosseum and Vatican are nearly 30 minutes away on foot or an easy cab ride. We took a cab TO the Colosseum, but walked back comfortably. It did not feel all that far and taking in the city on foot is really enjoyable.
The apartment itself is a bit old, but well taken care of. It was clean, in good repair, and the AC worked well. We were a group of five and the setup worked perfectly. Loft room has the tight and steep spiral stairs to deal with, but the benefit of its own attached bathroom.
We never cooked so no feedback on the kitchen, though looked in good order. Received a good stock of towels, though some washcloth sized ones would be nice.
The building was quiet, but the unit is above restaurants and in the city's heart. Expect street and dining noises late into evening in the warm months. Tiny elevator fits two, so our group hiked the stairs (4 floors).
The host company was very easy to work with and had excellent communication (quick responses and informative). They even set up our van ride from the airport which we really appreciated. Despite being a bit early we were met with a very friendly representative who showed us around while the cleaning was being finished up.
Great stay! Thank you!
