No monument captures the spirit of Rome quite as like the Colosseum, and being as close to the amphitheatre as this home is a real privilege. Just six minutes (on foot) to the emblematic attraction, and a traditional local area full of authentic eateries and beautiful tangerine buildings – you're perfectly placed here. Back home, you'll find a sociable open-plan living room, kitchen and dining area benefitting from sleek grey floors, tasteful artwork of the city by night and plenty of natural light pouring in. Wandering through the home, you'll notice a collection of art and literature books, quirky adornments and funky printed wallpapers in the bedrooms. There, those who are working from home during their stay will be able to power through emails at the dedicated desk spaces. The other thing that really makes the flat stick out is Simona and her hosting. She’s an absolute delight and will do everything possible to make your stay as good as it can be.

Home truths
You'll have to take the stairs to the second floor, as there's no lift in the building.
There aren't enough soft chairs in the living room to handle the maximum number of guests.
The single beds are fairly basic.
While the sofa in the living room is technically a sofa bed, Simona would rather you didn't use it.
The kitchen could be better equipped with crockery and utensils to cook large meals.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
