Stunning views of the coliseum!

This VRBO is one not to miss! The views of the coliseum are wonderful and it is just a short walk to both the site and a nice food neighborhood. The owner is very responsive and can also help with travel arrangements to ports, airports, etc. Highly recommended! We really enjoyed our stay.

Great location!

This penthouse has it all! The Colosseum is 2 blocks away and there are any number of restaurants near by. The place was clean and bright with big windows in the living room and kitchen. Lots of books available to read about the area and some history. The host was super easy to contact and communication was really good! 10/10 would recommend!

The BEST view!

We absolutely loved staying here. You can literally see the colosseum from the balcony. There are so many windows with views all around. And there are shutters for all of the windows that made it pitch black which was great for a mid day nap. I would definitely recommend staying here.

We had a great time in Rome. The apartment was clean, we could walk to the Colosseum. There are many restaurants near. Only suggestion would be to add a toaster.

Excellent location and apartment!

Excellent location and beautiful views from the front balcony of the Colosseum and Roman Forum and from the kitchen of the city. Couldn’t be happier with the apartment, how spacious it was, the furniture, the amenities, and how close it was to restaurants, the Colosseum, supermarkets and anything we needed, all within walking distance. Alberto was an incredibly welcoming and helpful host, gave us a map with local information, and arranged transportation to and from the airport for us as well. We would definitely stay there again!

An excellent springboard

The penthouse was everything we could have asked for. Situated close to the Colosseo Metro station with views of the Foro Romano, Colosseo, and Altar of the Fatherland. We spent many evenings with our glass of wine enjoying the summer concerts in the Foro; I would highly recommend it.

Overall great place. Good location, adequate AC and great balcony to enjoy evenings. Had an issue with shower water pressure, very low, very difficult to wash long hair and some ants in the kitchen but that happens. I would certainly come back but would appreciate to address water pressure.

Couldn’t pick a better place to stay!

Wow! Felt like we were in a fairy tale. The house and location exceeded our expectations. There is also luggage drop store just a couple hundred feet away if needed. Walked to all of the main sites. Enjoyed wine on the terrace and listened to concert that was going on while we visited. 2 couples and 1 child and we had plenty of room.

Won’t be back

Manager was rude as he was in suite when we walked in yelled asking how we got in! Received several type of bug bites. Sliding door to balcony was broke. Blood on one of the room sheets, we requested new sheets he dropped off but didn’t change linens on bed. Online site says very little stairs, not true if elevator in use you had to use several flights of stairs, needs maintenance

Amazing location and apartment

The location of, and view from, this apartment is incredible. We would stay here again. The apartment is huge, with amazing views in every direction, depending upon the room. We had considered bringing along my 84-year-old mother, because the description says 12 steps to the elevator. Glad we didn't, because the elevator does not get you to the apartment level. Manageable for us, might be difficult for some. Did I mention the apartment is huge and has amazing views?

Spectacular stay!

Apartment was exactly as described. We were greeted by the host’s son who explained everything in detail for us to feel at home. The space was perfect for 4 adults exploring Rome for the 1st time. From the balcony you have views of the Colosseum, the arch of Constantine and the ruins of the temple of Venus. We found the beds comfortable and although we did not use the kitchen it had everything you needed to cook meals. Once we accumulated to the high temperatures the Ac was a great perk to have! The Monti neighborhood was amazing & the host provided a list of recommended places. All the restaurants we tried were superb and authentic. The only recommendation I would have is if you have anyone who cannot walk flights of stairs I would not book the apartment-you must navigate many stairs. Other than that this is a perfect choice for your Roman holiday!
