Buenos días ...
Nuestra estancia en este apartamento en la ciudad de Roma ha superado nuestras expectativas. Cuando lo alquilamos, con la desconfianza creo que normal de que pudiera haber alquilado algo diferente a lo que aparecía en las fotografías, no esperaba gran cosa, pero me equivoqué. EL APARTAMENTO ES TAL CUAL APARECE EN LAS FOTOGRAFIAS, totalmente equipado, limpio, en un barrio tranquilo y muy bien comunicado, ya que la parada de autobuses de CLODIO está a su espalda, el Vaticano a apenas 10 minutos andando,... La atención de Giovanna fue estupenda, hasta el punto que mi hijo necesitó una silla de ruedas, y ella nos la facilitó en apenas dos horas desde que se la pedimos.
Me permito recomendar este alojamiento por su excelencia sin lugar a dudas.
Muchas gracias Giovanna por todo. Han sido unas vacaciones inolvidables.

A real modern gem found in an ancient city
We can only praise this apartment for being a perfect base for our 3 day Rome trip. A very modern apartment which we all voted as our best base on our Italian trip. Perfectly sized for a 4 person family and the hosts were very helpful before our stay & waiting for us when we arrived (early!). I have to say the area around is not a pristine city centre but this is the italian outskirts after all.....Initially, as we arrived on a Sunday, the area around seemed a bit of a ghost town but the next morning it was a bustling area and felt part of the city life. Walking in over the river to the main areas took over half an hour so I'd suggest getting the buses (no. 30 or 70 for popular tourist areas-1.50 euros each one way). Taxis were circa 15 euros back later at night. The bus terminal is a 2 minute walk around to the other side of the building. One word of warning - don't put the microwave on whilst the air con is on...it trips the fuse (she did tell us but of course we fell into the trap) In summary....just book it....you won't regret it. Belissimo & arrive derci.

Lovely stay in Rome
Our family of 5 stayed in the apartment for 3 nights recently and we were very happy with our choice of accommodation. The place is spacious and nicely located - easy access to Vatican and Ottaviano metro station from where you can reach many historical sites. Large corner sofa, nice TV and many movies to entertain in the evenings. Our host Giovanna was very helpful recommending places to eat (pizzeria/hostaria Giacomelli is a must), transport options and she offered to extend my stay when my return flight has been cancelled. Thank you Giovanna for having us and for all your help!!!

Review
Nicely located and Giovanna was there to greet us and explain things to us when we arrived. She also helped us with transport from and to airport. It should be noted that there is stairs. Something that could pose a problem for some. Always felt very safe.
One word about taxi drivers, never get into a taxi without them giving you a solid quote. If they start with depends on traffic or any other mishmash, find another taxi. 50/50 chance you'll get an honest taxi driver in Rome. Otherwise we love Rome!

Across from the Vatican's holy borders, designer stores make shopping the religion in Prati, while neat and gridded streets contribute to its residential calm. This tidy neighborhood effortlessly mixes business with pleasure–elegant office buildings share Prati real estate with high-end shops and simple public squares. Prati is close to city's center, but still detached enough to enjoy the luxury as its relative distance shields its citizens from the fast-paced frenzy of central Rome. The neighborhood is safe due to its proximity with the Vatican, and very well connected with public transportation - That is if you don't like to walk, because many monuments are at a walking distance -
Getting around
Many monuments are walking distance, but if you don't like to walk or are tired after your visits, you can use bus 30 or 70, which cross all of the city center (like Piazza Venezia for Colosseum, Piazza Argentina for Piazza Navona and Pantheon) and get you to destination in a few stops. Bus stop for 30 and 70 is just behind the apartment block
Metro/underground is just 800 meters (half mile from the house) and takes you straight in front of the Colosseum and in Piazza di Spagna
