Sunny Penthouse Apartment - Central Rome - Never Knowingly Undersold

Lovely apartment with excellent facilities. Quite far out from the centre but there are good buses and trams only minutes away. Lots of helpful information given by Andrea before and whilst at the property making the stay very easy. Would recommend this property

For us the apartment was in a super location, a quiet area away from the crowds, with good shops nearby and easy access to the centre of Rome via the tram. The apartment was clean, well equiped and the furniture comfortable (although we did find the bed a little hard). The views from the terrace were stunning (well worth the climb up five flight s of stairs!). Andrea sent very precise directions on how to get to the apartment, which we found invaluable.

Just spent a lovely weekend in the beautiful city of Rome staying at The Penthouse Monteverde. This is a spacious, clean and well laid out apartment with good access to the city centre on the frequent tram service which passes at the top of the road (the journey takes about 15 minutes and is cheap too). The apartment also has the added advantage of having a terrace where you can make the most of the Italian sunshine after a busy day's sightseeing.The owner provided excellent customer service and I would recommend his apartment to anyone wishing to stay in this area. The only downside was that we didn't want to leave!

We will definately be returning.

The apartment was great. The kids were delighted with SKY and were able to contact their friends on facebook using the wi fi. It is a 15 minute bus or tram ride away from the centre of Rome The bus and tram stops are just a few metres from the apartment. Everything was as described on the internet, including the fact that there is no lift. I did not have any problem with the number of steps to the apartment; it just took me a little longer than the kids.

It was also reassuring to have the telephone and Andrea's home phone number available for any emergencies.

After a hectic day it was really lovely to sit out in the balcony and watch the moon rise over Rome. At the top of the street is a Chinese restaurant which the kids loved. They were so friendly. Nearby is an excellent Italian restaurant. Warm thanks to Andrea and his father for all their help.

Our stay in Penthouse Monteverde was brilliant from start to finish. Andrea provided great instructions and detail and the property was exactly as we expected even though we never realised how beautiful it would be to sit above the rooftops in the rising sun and plan a day in the city in front of us.

Travelling with four kids, this was an ideal place with plenty of space to relax, where an air conditioned "tv room" was a life safer after a long day in town.

We especially like the location in a great neighbourhood with apricot trees growing along the path and plenty of small shops, pizzerias and vegetables places to supply all that was required. Catering for a family of 6 was perfectly easy in the penthouse apartment.

Access to town was perfect via the tram and we would and have recommeded the appartment to anyone travelling to Rome and we would most certainly hope to come again.

Re traveltips to Rome, our experience was to find a tour guide for St Peter and the Vatican Museum but to avoid the same at the Colloseum. The Roma pass is worth getting for three days and the bakery around the corner from Monteverde Penthouse sells divine thin sheet pizza by the meter which will feed anyone for a picnic in town.

Enjoy. We had not quibbles whatsoever. Thanks Andrea
