Wish we could have stayed longer here. Cute apt ..... opt for the air conditioning... we should have, but didnt. would have made it less muggy as Rome can be in the summer. We didnt get it as we were rarely in the suite. If i knew rome was this amazing and so much fun, we would have tried to stay longer. This place is within walking distance to EVERYWHERE!!!! we walked to the pantheon, the vatican, the colloseum and not to mention piazza nuovona. Which was unreal. Try the food across the street at the bar. great food and amazing service, friendly people .... such a great location is all i can say!!! thanks!

My boyfriend and I had the pleasure of staying in the Platinum apartment in March last year. You can't ask for anything better. The location allowed us to walk EVERYWHERE, including the Borghese gardens and the Vatican, and our favorite restaurants were just steps away. The area was perfect for strolling around at night, and we always felt very safe. Mario was so friendly and helpful in taking our reservation and answering all of our questions, and was quick to respond to emails. I can't wait until we have the opportunity to stay here again.

I am a VRBO owner 165144, and would like to give Alessandro a great review for a great flat in a perfect location. I just returned from my trip to Italy, Aug 13th and had spent 3 days in the Gold apt. in Rome. The flat was perfect for myself my wife and my daughter. Alessandro the owner had set up a ride for us from the airport, which is located around 30 minutes away. We met him at the flat, he was very nice and attentive. We did pay the $6 Euros a day extra for the AC, well worth it. The flat is locted in a central location, safe neighborhood and within walking distance to everything. Piazza Navona is about a 7 minute walk, cafes, wine bars and shops just out the door of the apt building. I would definatly stay there again. Thank you Alessandro!

Gold Apartment - Less than meets the eye

Guest: filoroma (Brooklyn, NY, United States)
Date of Stay: 07/19/10 Review Submitted: 08/09/10

Our theory is that the Gold and Platinum apartments were once one apartment, which would explain the lack of windows, small size, and odd door to the "Gold" that we rented. Although technically not underground, the apartment looks, feels, and smells like a basement apartment. We walked in to be overwhelmed by the smell of cleaning product that still could not disguise the odor of mold. There is one six inch window so high up (and above the air conditioning unit) that you need a remote control to open it, and one other that is bigger and also very high, but can be accessed on the staircase that leads to the loft. Neither window emits any light; even in broad daylight, the apartment is totally dark, necessitating the need to have the lights on anytime you enter. Air conditioning is a necessity due to total lack of air flow. The fact that the owner offers air conditioning as an option is baffling, because the place would be unbearable without it. The location is in the heart of centro storico as advertised, but in the six years I've rented in Rome, I've rented much better apartments in equally central locations for comparable rates. And, frankly, if you want my advice, rent in Trastevere. You'll be within walking distance of Piazza Navona, the Pantheon, Campo de' Fiori, the Vatican, etc., without being in tourist central when you walk out of the building. And you might even bump into a Roman or two.

At Home In Rome

This was our second stay ( 10 days) in Alessandro's wonderful apartment.You could not wish for a more perfect location and it was great to find a new supermarket just minutes down the street.Open the street door and you are spoilt for choice- coffee, lunch, dinner or gelati. The web site is honest and true in every respect: location as well as what you will find in the apartment which is a beautifully designed and comfortable space, ideal for two. The photos are very accurate and reflect the appearance and facilities exactly.As before, we found the apartment spotless with excellent linen. Alessandro is a warm, generous and extrememley helpful host.His response to emails is always immediate.We loved staying here so much that we often came home for lunch or siesta- "when in Rome"... Everything you could possibly wish to see, experience and visit is within walking distance.There is a very helpful tourist office at the northern end of P. Navona.We highly recommend making your way to the Via Apia Antica - ancient Roman road, also dont miss San Clemente and Castel Sant' Angelo. For pizza without a queue we recommend La Buffeta- just off Campo de Fiori We would happily recommend the apartment and have done so already.We saved the best til last- this was our final stop in an 8 week journey in northern Italia.Once again we threw some coins in the fountain and hope very much to return to this beautiful apartment in our favourite city, once more.

This is a gorgeous apartment... the location is perfect - smack in the middle of the center of Rome. Even then we felt like being "at home"! So we would certainly come back, highly recommended.
