Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This apartment is within walking distance of many of Rome’s main attractions. These include the Colosseum and the Roman Forum, to name just a few. You’ll find plenty of cafes and restaurants in the neighbourhood too. Or return to this home and dine on the terrace here – it’s a great place to relax in the shade. And although the apartment doesn’t have a lot of natural light, you’ll be surrounded by the owner’s vibrant artworks. We love the original features, such as the barrel-vaulted ceiling in the living space, as well. This room also sleeps two guests on a sofa bed at full occupancy. The apartment offers a unique experience in the Eternal City.

Home truths
At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area.
While we love the overall design of this home, it is lacking in natural light.
As the balcony faces the interior communal courtyard, it doesn't get any sun – a bonus in the hot Roman summers. Also, there are only two seats here.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
Pets may be allowed here – please check with your host.
Your host offers free luggage storage.

About Termini
Burst out of Rome's main station and you fall straight into the sights and sounds of Termini.
