THe center of Rome is very big and you will be really in the center of the center.

Shops, restaurants, supermarket, evertything is in walking distance.
The apartment has the characteristic shape of the Roman apartments of 17th century, so it's long and narrow.
It has a nice living-room with a sofa bed, two bedrooms, a colourful kitchen with a small balcony and one bathroom (with shower).
So it is really comfortable for 2/3/4 or 5 people and it can accommodate up to 8 persons (the table of the kitchen can be easily enlarged). Very very suitable for families or group of friends.
It's equipped with all comfort: appliances (refrigerator, freezer, microwave, washing machine, iron), high speed wi-fi internet, stereo, large TV, heating, air conditioning.
Equipped for children (baby bed, portable high chair.)
2nd floor.
Sheets and towels included.
