This place was excellent! Fit our family of 5. Was close to metro, Vatican was 1 min walk from apartment. Great dining options nearby. Host was very communicative and offered help, recommendations and private taxi from airport. Fully functional kitchen and laundry was a great help with little kids. Highly recommend!

The host Giovanna is extremely hospitable. Helped us with all our needs. The apartment is beautiful and looks better than the pictures. We are a family of 5, two adults, 15, 12, and 10 year children and found it extremely comfortable. There are two grocery stores nearby. He has a washing machine, no dryer but you can get laundry service for 15 euros nearby. Giovanna helped us with this. This way you don't have to wait. The Vatican is right in front of you. You have views of it from the windows. Rome city center is a 35 min walk and Testevre is about the same the other direction. I would suggest taking the metro or uber. Other than that It's perfect. I would highly recommend this place.

Great apartment and location

Our booking process, all the way to being welcomed at the apartment (even very late due to flight delay) were without any problems. Property manager (Giovanni) was fantastic, great communications, and apartment was accommodating. Apartment was close to The Vatican. We would not have changed a thing. Gratzie and Arrivederci!

Stay in Rome

Location was great and the apartment was clean and easy to access but the electricity was a big problem. Giovanni warned us about it upon check in but we didn't realize how inconvenient it would be. We couldn't run the washing machine without having to turn off both air conditioning units. We tried different combinations and had the circuit turn off several times. Other than the electrical problem, the apartment was a nice place to stay if you want to be close to the Vatican.

Wonderful Roma apartment close to Vatican City!

We stayed at this wonderful Roma apartment for five days in July. The owner Giovanni greeted us upon our arrival. He is a wonderful host as he took the time to review the apartment. He also had a nice bottle of wine waiting for us (nice touch!) The apartment was roomy and very comfortable for me, my husband and two teenage children. It had many amenities- nice beds, kitchen utensils, washing machine, bags for groceries, and much more. It has air conditioning which was so needed during our "siesta" since the weather was hot during our visit. Most importantly, the apartment located in a nice neighborhood and super quick walk to the Vatican Museum entrance (highly recommend doing the "Breakfast at the Vatican- worth the splurge!) There is a grocery store next to the apartment as well as many restaurants and cafes. The metro stop is a five minute walk which was great since we toured all over the city. This is truly a wonderful apartment that I highly recommend you stay at!!

Convenient and welcoming

Giovanni made our trip! ..... he did everything from arrange a driver to meet us at the airport to making sure we had everything we needed during our stay. The apartment was so convenient for sightseeing .... the metro is only a few blocks away, the Vatican Museum entrance is less than a block from the door and there are restaurants, shops and markets all around. The apartment itself was quiet and comfortable and had everything we needed (even a nice bottle of wine) ..... Thank you Giovanni!

The Perfect Rome Apartment

A few days ago we arrived home from what was the best vacation we've ever had in Italy. A good part of our enjoyment was this lovely, roomy apartment. When we're on vacation, it is very important to us to have a comfortable space that we can regularly come back to, especially after an exhausting morning or afternoon of sightseeing. Overall, the apartment was attractive and well-furnished, the kitchen well-equipped, and the bed very comfortable. The apartment location was great for us, as well - close to St. Peter's and the Vatican, and close to the metro. A real bonus for us was having a grocery store just a few doors away. The owner was friendly and very helpful, and from our first inquiry always responded very quickly. We will definitely try to book this apartment the next time we have plans to travel again to Rome.

Amazing Views and Great Location

We chose this apartment because of the high reviews and a friend recommended it. We were not disappointed! The view is amazing. We woke up to bells ringing and the Vatican across the street and it was one of our favorite parts of staying in Roma. The bathroom is narrow but that's to be expected in Roma. There is a washing machine and everything we needed for a comfortable stay including detergent, soap, shampoo and extra toilet paper. These are not always included in apartments like this and we were pleasantly surprised! Giovanni was very easy to work with. He responded quickly to my emails and set up a driver to meet us at the airport to deliver us to the apartment. There are two grocery stores, one just a few buildings down and another across the street and half a block down. The metro is a very easy walk, just go to the left to the end of the block, walk down that block and cross the street and it's there about 2-3 blocks down. Easy walk for our family of five (three kids ages 10, 8, 5) We used the metro all over Roma. There are several good places to eat - go down a block further away from the Vatican and to the left and find the pizza place with a red awning - excellent pizza, cheap and a cozy atmosphere. Awesome gelato is a quick walk away - Old Bridge at Viale dei Bastioni Di Michelangelo, 5, 00192 Roma, Italy - very reasonable prices and huge portions. Try the Bacia - it was everyone's favorite! I have already shared the link with a couple of friends and anticipate sharing more. If we ever find our way back to Roma then we will stay here :-)

Perfect Location and Great Apartment

I chose this apartment because of the many great reviews, and I was not disappointed. Giovanni was waiting for our arrival, even though we were three hours later than expected (flight delayed). The "welcome bottle of wine" was perfect after our frazzled travel day. We used Giovanni's contact for our taxi ride from the airport (he waited 2 hours for us), and returned us to Fiumicino at the end of our stay. It gave us peace of mind knowing that everything was arranged. The majority of our sightseeing was at Vatican City, so Giovanni's apartment was perfect walking distance. The description and pictures of this apartment are most accurate. It was so clean it sparkled! We patronized a favorite restaurant right next door -- La Locanda Di Pietro. And the grocery market three doors away provided everything else we could want. I would recommend this place to friends and family.

Wonderful experience!

We loved the apartment, the area. It was very comfortable with one exception. The sheets named to be replaced. The are very rough and we could not sleep on them. Otherwise we loved it and would definitely stay again!! Fabritizio took us on a tour that was the highlight of our trip! Giovanni was very kind and helpful!

Die Lage und die Aussicht war super. Aber die reinlichkeit läßt zu wünschen übrig.

Der Kühlschrank war total verdreckt und die Dusche hätte eine komplett sarnierung notwendig. Der Spülkasten spritzte von oben auf die Toilette. Die Wohnung war bei der Übergabe auf jeden Fall nich grundgereinigt. Da sollte sich dringend ändern.
