It was amazing to stay so close to all attactions, while the 70 steps to the top floor were great for fitness, & sometimes challenging after a big day out, to have the rooftop for wines and see clear across the locale was really special.Comfortable beds, while everything was old (to be expected) it was super clean & comfortable with aircon.Clorinda saw to our every query with grace and friendline.

Amazing location

The location of this property is second to none, if you want to live like a local this is the place to stay. They warn you that there are a lot of steps to get to the property (roughly 72) but it is worth it for the location. The place was very clean and was great for us as a family of 4! We would love to stay here again if we ever get back to Rome!

The bathroom was quite small, and the door was difficult to open and close. Several of the small wood floor tiles were loose and frequently came up. The upstairs air conditioning unit was dripping water, and the main entrance door was very hard to shut properly. On a positive note, the property is in a convenient and well-located

Perfect spot! Super central

We had a great time at this property! Unfortunately, the bathroom flooded during a storm our first night there, but the property manager was on top of finding a plumber the next morning and discounted our stay for the troubles. Overall, the location was incredible, the apartment itself was adorable, and the rooftop terrace was AMAZING.

Wonderful Location!

We had a wonderful stay in Roma. A spacious apartment with great roof top views for your morning espresso. We were able to walk to most tourist spots, and it is very close to taxi for longer journeys. We loved the neighborhood too. After a busy day in Rome, the neighborhood cafe's feel so cozy. Close to a market too.

Best location in Rome

The condo worked out wonderfully for our five night stay. The rooftop was a great hit. The only drawback I could say was at the five flights of stairs which could be a determining factor for other guests wanting to stay. I can't say enough about the location it's within 10 to 20 minutes of almost every major sightseeing attraction in the area.

Perfect stay in Rome

5-Star ReviewI had a wonderful stay at this apartment in the heart of Rome! The location is unbeatable, with everything you could want to see or do just steps away. It made exploring the city so convenient and enjoyable. The host was incredibly attentive during check-in, ensuring a smooth process, and communication throughout my stay was excellent.The only thing to note is that the stairs leading to the apartment might be challenging for older guests or anyone with mobility issues. However, if that’s not a concern, this place is perfect for a Roman getaway. Highly recommend it for its charm, convenience, and top-notch hospitality!

Great Location and Roof Top Terrace

Had just enough of everything for our family of 5. Really appreciated the two AC units when it was 40C out. Fantastic location but on a quiet side street so you could sleep well but also be around all the action. There are a lot of stairs, but if you are able, the stairs are worth it especially for the roof top terrace in the unit.

Loved this place!!! The location is fabulous!!!! Everything within walking distance. Right in the heart of old Rome. Monica was an absolute delight to work with. She even arranged transportation to and from airport for us. If you are looking for a true Roman experience this is the place. I would definitely come back and recommend all to this little gem.

Roman Charm in Old Rome

My family 5 loved Rome. The apartment made it a perfect experience. The terrace was our favorite place and no day was complete without a glass of wine and a tiramisu from our favorite place down the street. I highly recommend this apartment, not only for its charm, but it's location. It easily fits a family of five and has all the convenience you might need for the duration of your stay. Be aware you will have to climb stairs. :-) Love it!

Great Location!

This apartment is in an excellent location close to Piazza Navona. It is walking distance to many attractions including the Pantheon, Trastevere, and the Vatican. There is also a very convenient taxi stand only a couple of blocks from the apartment if you are going to more outlying areas. There is lots of nice shopping and restaurants that are also close to the apartment. While the apartment met our needs, it could use a little updating. For example, the washer did not work well (no spin cycle) and this made the process of cleaning our clothes more challenging than it should have been.

Great location in Rome

The apartment was in a perfect location for seeing the sites of Rome. Everything was within a 30 minute walk. The apartment was clean and spacious. The host met us at the apartment to let us in and show us around the apartment. It was hot when we were there so we didn't use the balcony that much but the air conditioning was great. It was perfect for me and my wife and it would be big enough for a family with small children. I think 5 adults would feel a little tight. Be aware that there is no lift in the apartment and it is up 4 flights of stairs. I can highly recommend this property,

Great place in superb location!

My family (me + wife and two teenagers) stayed here for 3 nights and enjoyed our stay. Good: -GREAT location-tons if restaurants, bars and Rome attractions. You’re in the heart of Rome! -We each had basically our own private rooms to sleep -the rooftop terrace is nice Bad: -If you are a light sleeper I would not stay here. Being in such a great location means you have noise to deal with in the late hours. Didn’t bother my family or I but wanted to let you know. -There are a lot of stairs to get to the place. Again, not a big deal for us but you should know it before booking. Monica is a great host who really cares for her guests and she was flexible on check-in time allowing us to drop our bags off early. I would definitely stay here again!

Charming Digs, AMAZING LOCATION

We enjoyed a lovely 6 day holiday in Monica and Ambra's charming penthouse apartment. The apartment offers all as promised, spectacular roof top views, enchanting old world style, and a location that can't be beat. We literally walked everywhere: Vatican City, The Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, Campo Di Fiore, The Spanish Steps, The Capitoline Museum, Teattro Mateo, all within 15 minutes walking distance. Ambra and Monica were ultra accommodating, arranging a car for our pick up from the airport, which was so convenient. 3 women, traveling alone, and we felt like were at home, safe and comfy. 1 drawback - the walk up. The apartment was listed as a 3rd floor walk up, its more like 5th floor, or at least 5 story climb. Totally worth it and even manageable, except that we packed like typical american tourists and had a rough time up and down with the heavy and massive luggage. Would strongly recommend packing light as much as I would strongly recommend staying with Monica and Ambra in this lovely gem in the middle of everything in Rome.

Excellent location and lovely, authentic apartment

We loved our 5 days in Rome! This apartment helped to make our first visit to Rome perfect. The location is superb! You can walk to everything. We only took a taxi twice (one on arrival from the airport and one to get to the train station when we were leaving Rome). Rome is such a walkable city and this great, little apartment puts you right in the center of all the must-see’s of Rome. There are a lot of steps to get to this 4th story apartment, but they are totally worth it because we had our own private, roof-top balcony that we loved. We also felt that the steps were helping us work off all the delicious gelato we were enjoying in Rome. The landlady and her sister are wonderful and very quick to respond to any needs or questions we had. I am especially grateful to them for arranging our taxi to and from the apartment on our arrival and departure. That made it so easy! The apartment had the feeling that you were borrowing a friends house and had many small touches of a “home”. I would highly recommend this apartment and would look into booking it again if we are ever in Rome.
