In picturesque Borgo, this apartment puts you a short walk away from icons like Castel Sant'Angelo and St. Peter's Basilica. Sidewalk cafes, local eateries, and cobblestone streets are the norm in this location, and you’re not far on foot from all the major tourist attractions. When you’re not out and about, however, make yourself comfortable back home. White and brown tiles add a whimsical touch to the practical living space – though it’s worth noting that two guests will sleep on the double sofa bed. The other two bedrooms have Netflix and plenty of space, making this a great option for families and small groups of friends.
