About this property

Maria was amazing and so accommodating! When our flight was canceled she offered to move our days for us with no additional costs. Maria also allowed us a late check out, since she didn’t have anyone staying the day we left. The place was roomy and not the typical compact layout like most places in Rome, along with plenty of restrooms. The location was perfect and everywhere we wanted to go was in walking distance or available through the metro, which was a few blocks away. We want to go back in the next few years and plan to rent Maria’s beautiful home again. Thank you for everything Maria, you’re the best!

The Vatican Penhouse with Terrace was ideal for walking to visit St. Peter's Basilica,Museum and the Sistene Chapel. The accommodation was perfect for three couples and the terrance was a bonus to have. It did say it's on the third floor, and had 80 stairs to climb. We would highly recommend this location to friends and family.

FANTASTIC apartment in Rome

The apartment was spacious, clean, and well furnished with a fabulous location and host. The description was accurate. There were good restaurants, markets, ATMs, and gelato within blocks and the Vatican was so close. The patio and views were added bonuses. This perfectly met the needs of our family of six adults. All our needs for space and amenities were met.

Great location

Great apartment and Maria and her daughter were extremely accommodating. Rome was extremely hot in August but the air conditioning in the home was great so it didn't bother us at night. Walking distance to the Vatican with a number of good restaurants near by as well as a large taxi stand close by. Highly recommend and would stay here again.

This apartment and host deserve more than an 10/10! We have stayed in many VRBOs and this has been the best experience we have ever had! The location of the apartment, the exceptional host, the cleanliness of the apartment- made this trip so special! We had a family of 6 staying here and we had plenty of space for all of us. Maria arranged all of our transportation and that was so helpful for our vacation. They always arrived on time and the price was told to us before we ever even left for our vacation. Thank you so much Maria for allowing us to stay and for your amazing hospitality! We would love to come back soon!

Beautiful spacious, great location!

We so enjoyed our stay in Rome and it was made all the better with such a beautiful apartment to stay in. The location was wonderful, the apartment was clean and spacious and the view of the Vatican could not be beat! It was very easy working with Maria and the orientation by Camilla was a warm welcome to Rome. We will definitely try to return in the future!

Wonderful Apartment

What a fabulous apartment in a great location! It is in such close proximity to The Vatican (and Museum), restaurants, shops and the taxi line is just across the street. The apartment itself is spacious and lovely with everything you could want - including air conditioning! And Maria and Camilla could not have been any nicer. This is a great place to stay in Rome, indeed.
