We had a very comfortable two week stay in this apartment in May. It provided us with a lovely home base for our explorations in the city. There are some excellent restaurants in the neighborhood (Osteria Padi, Pizzeria Divina) and a supermarket (Carrefour) just up the street. There is a taxi stand just down the block to get to further away destinations in Rome, and it’s in easy walking distance to the Roma San Pietro train station. It only costs 1€ to take the train from San Pietro to Termini, cheaper than taxi.
We went to the Vatican Museum on Friday at noon, and there was no line for tickets at all. If you didn’t get your tickets ahead of time, try Friday at noon. Don’t believe the hawkers telling you the line is 3 hours long. Check it yourself first.
The apartment has a good kitchen with everything needed to prepare meals. The living room is very comfortable for reading and relaxing. The bed is also comfortable. We slept well here. We loved the marble and stone floors throughout. The building itself is solid and well maintained.
The apartment on the 4th floor, but there is an elevator which works well, and is right next to the apartment, so very convenient.
We did a lot of walking from this apartment. Piazza Navona is about 2km away, as is Campo de Fiori. Once you get to the other side of the Tiber, your transport options open up. We did not use any buses or trams on this trip, but did ride the Metro, and take taxis, when walking got to be too much.
Overall we had a wonderful stay at this apartment and would stay there again. Its an excellent value if you are visiting the Vatican area.
