In the buzzing neighbourhood of Monti, this apartment would suit a group of friends or family who want to be in the heart of Rome. The surrounding streets are a lively medley of bustling bars, restaurants, and ancient ruins – the Colosseum and Roman Forum are a short walk away. Back home, the furnishings are a little dated and two guests will squeeze in on the living area's sofa bed. Still, it makes an ideal base for sightseeing – even if the kitchen is small and there's a tendency for street noise in this ultra-central locale. The cherry on top is the access to a communal rooftop terrace overlooking the ancient rooftops of Rome.
Home truths: *Two guests will be on a sofa bed in the living room, which is quite a squeeze. We think this works best for a group of six.
*This apartment is on the third floor of a building without a lift. You'll need to be comfortable climbing a lot of stairs to reach the entrance.
*Given the central spot, expect to hear some street noise during your stay. Light sleepers might want to pack earplugs.
*There's only room for four at the table, so at capacity, the whole group won't be able to dine together.
*The rooftop terrace is shared with other apartments in the building.
*While no parking is provided, a car isn't necessary in central Rome.
*The wi-fi can be temperamental here.
*Please respect the neighbours and keep noise down after 10pm.
