Rome lovers who return year after year always look for apartments in this prized Piazza Navona/Campo dei Fiori area where they are transported to an old world city with its winding streets lined with buildings that date from the 1400s - 1800s.
Location
The building fronts on Lungardo de' Cenci and is steps from Via Portico di Ottavia, the heart of the "Ghetto" the historic Jewish district. Campo de' Fiori is also nearby, the largest open air market in the center of Rome. Piazza Navona is a short walk, too. Largo Arenula and Piazzale Torre Argentina are around the corner. This is a transportation hub area with a trolley line that leads to Trastevere and busses to the rest of the city.
Exterior
This fine old building can be entered both from the Tiber side as well as from a small street that runs parallel to the Tiber. The entire apartment opens onto the small street. This shelters the apartment from the sounds of traffic on the river side.
A pleasant, spacious courtyard with well-tended plants welcomes you into the building.
The Lora apartment is on the 2nd floor European, 3rd American designation. A two-person elevator services the building.
Interior
A large foyer leads to a comfortable and well-decorated living room, a separate dining room and a large and completely equipped kitchen.
The dining room, living room and master bedroom overlook a small side street that runs parallel to the Tiber river.
You may really feel like cooking in the exceptionally large and well equipped kitchen.
There are three bedrooms. One has a queen sized bed and en suite bath with shower over tub. A large walk-in closet has a rolling clothes rack and some shelves.
Second and third bedrooms share a hallway that leads from the kitchen. These rooms overlook the internal courtyard. There is a single closet shared by the two bedrooms that is located in the hall.
The third bedroom has two twin beds. The room is quite small, sleeping space only.
The second bathroom is off the main hallway. It has a cabinet-style shower as well as the usual fixtures.
The two larger bedrooms each have a portable air conditioner.
To sleep up to 8 people, there are two hassock-beds that unfold to form cots, suitable for children.
Guests receive by email complimentary and helpful documents: 1. FAQ About Renting in Italy, 2. Helpful Information About Florence, and, 3. for children, a copy of the Italy Discovery Journal.

Why the Owner Chose Navona
This neighborhood couldn't be more interesting. Great food shopping in nearby Campo dei Fiori, historical sights are all around you from the Pantheon to the Capitoline to the Ghetto. There are many great restaurant choices. Then, finally, there are those golden moments relaxing on the terrace enjoying the skyline as the sun sets, glass of vino in hand...

The apartment itself is spacious and bright May 2009 The Lora apartment has a wonderful location for 3 different criteria. The location is good for walking to all of the ancient Roman sites which we did daily. The apartment is also located on some very key bus routes that offered exceptional service to the Vatican, Vatican Museums, and other sites that were further away than our elder family member wanted to walk. The amenities that were found amazingly close to the apartment (grocery store, bus tickets, bakery, gelato store, market) were greatly appreciated. The apartment itself is spacious and bright. As a family of 6, there was lots of room for everyone to sit together or to be apart (depending on what we wanted to do at the time). The entire apartment building is charming and maintained well. However, the apartment had some drawbacks that we feel are correctable with a little bit of effort. The showerheads were terrible. They sprayed water everywhere, making the stream of water less effective for showering and making a huge mess in the bathroom. The wet floors were slippery and treacherous after a shower. [Showerheads have been replaced.] An internet connection would have been greatly appreciated. There were affordable internet cafés in the area, but their hours were unpredictable and it was not something we were willing to let our children visit on their own. Anyone staying at the apartment should realize that Arenula is a busy, noisy street at all times of the day and more so on weekend evenings. A police station is located close by. The street noise does intrude into the apartment, but should be expected since this is a large, busy city. I hope this is helpful. We did enjoy our stay in the apartment and I have tried to point out those things that would have improved our time in the apartment during our visit. Connie
