We had a perfect stay at this apartment! The location is unbeatable—it’s just a few minutes’ walk to the Colosseum, making it incredibly easy to explore the heart of Rome.The apartment itself was spotlessly clean and well-maintained. A huge highlight for us was the rooftop patio; the views of the Colosseum and the Roman skyline are absolutely spectacular and provided the perfect backdrop for our evenings.Beyond the space, the host was wonderful. They were incredibly accommodating and allowed us to drop our bags off well before the official check-in time, which was a huge help after a long travel day. They also provided an excellent list of local recommendations for dinner, grocery shopping, and—of course—the best gelato spots nearby. We couldn't have asked for a better home base in Rome. Highly recommended!

Rome Vacation

We cannot say enough good things about our stay! This apartment was in the perfect location, was spacious and clean, and had a great balcony to relax on after long days touring the sites. The apartment was well stocked we especially enjoyed the coffee they provided. The owners were great, easy to communicate with, and very helpful. If we ever make it back to Rome, we will definitely stay here again!

What a fantastic rooftop apartment - clean- updated- and wonderfully situated close to the Colosseum, the Forum and plenty of great restaurants in the Monti section of Rome! The rooftop terrace with sights to the Colosseum were a fantastic way to take in the morning sunshine or finish a day with a cool breeze and glass of wine! Our family of six fit very well and enjoyed the layout of the space. The hosts were very responsive (minutes) to any questions we had. In summary, when we go back to Rome, we’ll stay here once more.
