Ancient Rome View Apartment

Great area for exploring on foot. Very noisy most of the time, even at night.

Francesco property was spacious apartment right across archeological works - it was awesome to look out of apartment’s window and see ancient history being discovered right in front of you! Apartment is safe (you have to go through several doors to get to it), very spacious and comfortably situated my family! It has this charming historical feel to it but yet still have all modern amenities we are accustomed to. Apartment is right in the center of Rome and you can walk from it within 20 Minutes to likely all highlights and places you would consider must haves to visit. Francesca kept in touch with me before check-in and during stays so we did not have any issues with our stay there! I

This is a phenomenal property! Perfect in every way, completely exceeded our expectations. Wonderful host! Very accommodating when we had an emergency and needed to stay an extra day. Staying here was a highlight of our trip, and we hope to return. Grazie mille!

Unfortunately, this was the most stressful accommodation of our entire 7-country trip.Check-in Issues: This was the only property requiring an additional credit card hold for damages, surprisingly earmarked 'only for major issues - like a fire', which is frightening for people who intend no harm to a property. Once inside, we found numerous threatening notices throughout the apartment warning of fines for various infractions (see photos). These two things created an unwelcoming atmosphere from the start.Elevator & Hostile Neighbors: Despite carefully following the elevator instructions provided, we were scolded by the next-door neighbor and then later by another resident who each blamed us 'vrbo people' for operating it incorrectly. When we contacted the property manager for help, we received no response. We couldn't use the stairs as an alternative because the neighbor had changed the locks on the stairwell door. Trash Disposal: We were told to use public bins in the square for trash. A local restaurant owner informed us this was because the property manager wasn't paying for building trash service—essentially requiring illegal disposal in public receptacles.Property Condition: The seat on all the chairs were either sunken or entirely broken (see photos). One set of towels was provided for a 10-night stay.The lack of support from the property manager, hostile building environment, and questionable operational practices made this stay unnecessarily stressful.

The apartment was spacious, well maintained and comes with a great view of Largo di Torre Argentina. The host was available at the agreed check in time and showed us the apartment in person. It is in central Rome and is only a short walk to both the Pantheon and the Colosseum. There are several good restaurants nearby as well as markets, pharmacies, and gelato places. (I mention the gelato because it is one of my favorite things about Rome!) There is a taxi stand and public transportation nearby to easily get to other parts of the city. Drawbacks include the street noise of Rome.

We very much enjoyed the location, spaciousness and vibe of this apartment!. Great restaurant below for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

We loved this location and the historical significance but the apartment itself was spacious and accommodating for our family of 4. We had some space, two bathrooms and the views are really cool. Clean, comfortable and unique with decor that was cozy. The ‘lift’ was nice for the luggage trips and unique in and of itself. Jacopo was available to us for checking d so kind and friendly and helpful- thank you!

Perfect location, perfect weather, wonderful stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in our Ancient Rome View Apartment. The view overlooking Largo Argentina is spectacular and the location is very convenient as it is close to restaurants, stores, and many of ancient Rome’s historic sites. Our host Allesandro was very accommodating and arranged transportation from Rome Fiumicino Airport to our apartment, met us at the apartment, and did a walk through. We thoroughly enjoyed our accommodations and would not hesitate to stay in the Ancient Rome View apartment in the future.

I loved the Roman charm of this big apartment. The views were amazing. The key utilization was tricky but we felt very safe. Francesca and Alessio were very communicative.

Run by a big rental place not cared for or put together with any love TOTALLY OVERPRICED FOR THE EXPERIENCE. We were here in a heat wave. None of the AC in all three bedrooms worked well. They responded promptly but could not help except to send someone to clean out vents on our last day. They said they’d be over in the morning but showed up at 6pm. Too little too late. I understand it’s Europe we are not crazy high end needs but this was essential. NO coffee maker like a nespresso. A few bad frying pans all bent and scratched up. ONE hand towel, no paper towel, bad toilet paper. NO microwave. Bad cheap tea kettle. THE BEDS- awful, bouncy springs with thin mattresses, the twin beds in the second room were teeny maybe ok for kids scratchy sheets if you have a bad back the beds were terrible. The headboards did not stick to the beds and in the big bedroom were falling down. SO dusty and dirty behind the beds it all felt dirty. The pulley on shades broke last day. Pros - check in and customer service was prompt and it has a tiny lift so for anyone who cannot handle the long flights up it worked well and was very helpful. excellent location w a view with terrace overlooking Largo Argentina. Very nice in the middle of many things but not as crowded as pantheon and trevi area.Nice cafe next door for a drink or easy breakfast I recommend the maritozzi with a cappuccino! next door to mercato so great to get quick lunch or supplies of food milk water etc.

Location was great. A/C not so great. It is hot in Rome in the summertime.

The location of this apartment was amazing in almost every respect. It was a 5 min walk to the Jewish Quarter, 10 min walk to the cute neighborhood of Trastavere across the river, and within 10-min walking distance to all the sites in the city center. Also only 30 min walks to the Vatican, Colosseum, and Spanish Steps, and a taxi stand was right outside the apartment when we decided not to walk someplace. The best part about the location was also the worst in terms of finding authentic, delicious Italian meals. Because the apartment is in the tourism center, we were surrounded by gimmicky, touristy restaurants where the food was nothing special and served by foreign servers. Not the Stanley Tucci experience by any stretch. After a couple of days, we caught on and went searching farther for better food. The neighborhoods near the Spanish Steps, Barberini, and Trastavere were better spots to walk around and find good trattorias. In terms of the apartment itself, it's very spacious for 4 people and has a lot of Italian charm. There were 3 A/C units that worked very well. We were there in June when it was hot, and the apartment was very cool and comfortable. The bathrooms are also equipped with hair dryers made for Italian outlets. The view outside the terraces was amazing -- the ruins at Largo Di Argentina, which we learned is where Julius Caesar was stabbed 23 times. Sounds morbid but it was actually a great place to have morning coffee.

Excellent location. Short walk Pantheon and Trevi and other attractions close by. Apartment pleasant and spacious for a family of four. Everyone we dealt with was helpful, friendly and responsive. A great to contribution to our Rome trip.

The host was extremely helpful walking us through the apartment and things to look out for. He recommended several great places to eat as well as different driving services and coffee shops!! I highly recommend staying here!

Fantastic location with incredible view.

We had a wonderful time at this apartment. The location is perfect. Walking distance to most of the sites. The apartment was larger than it appears in the photos. The property manager was quick to respond to all of our questions and check in with Alessandro was a breeze. Would definitely recommend.

No better place for travellers interested in Roman culture and history.

Our family of four stayed three nights. The agent communicated with us as we were delayed in arriving. He meet us at the front door when we arrived and explained everything we needed to know. The building is located in a busy square but on a large pedestrian walkway. It was also quiet. The location across the walkway from ancient ruins was wicked cool. We could also walk to many of the attractions. Just blocks away was a quiet square with many restaurants with more amazing ruins. If ever back in Rome I would try to book this apartment again.

This apartment was exactly what we were looking for in the heart of Rome. We walked to the Spanish steps, Trevi fountain, The Pantheon, and the Travestere neighborhood. Grazi!

This apartment is centrally located within a fairly easy 30-minute walk of nearly of all the major sights of ancient Rome. Unlike just about all the other apartments I looked at, this 5th floor unit, overlooking the “Area Sacra di Largo Argentina” archaeological site [which dates back from 2,050 to nearly 2,400 years ago], allows one a nice wide view and setting sun, instead of an alley, other windows or a wall. Pros: This is off the street, so car exhaust – engine noises are not as pronounced as with other places. The apartment is very roomy and nicely laid out. There is only this and one other apartment on this floor with the elevator right at the front door. 3 step out balconies. Air Conditioners: 3 room A/C units with remote controls all work very well [one in each bedroom and one for the living room] cools each room rapidly and maintains good temperatures. This is a safe location as far as I am concerned, lots of people around, an outdoor restaurant feet away and 3 keys required to get into the apartment. Sidewalk door, elevator door [you need to unlock the hall door to get off the elevator], and a specialized front door key for the apartment. There are 3 local small grocery stores within a short walk. Tiger, nearly next door on the south corner (there is also a Tiger products store on the north corner), Pam – a 4 minute walk to the east towards the Monument to Victor Emmanuel and the Supermercato Carrefour Express – 3 minutes north. This is a great place to stay

The apartment was great and the location was fantastic and central to everything we wanted to see and do. The view out of apartment windows was exactly as advertised and amazing. The apartment was roomy for 2 couples. Just wish there was 4 comfortable lounge chairs in lounge room and more pillows on the beds and that the Second room bed could be converted to a double would be nice. Otherwise the perfect place to stay.

The location could not be better! The home was lovely. There was a very sweet bar/restaurant just outside the entry that served the best drinks and food you could ask for - got at least a nightcap there every evening. We were within walking distance to most everything! Clean, comfortable and charmingly furnished. We loved it! My husband, and two grandchildren (17&18).
