Pros: Two bedrooms have views of the dome of St Peter's basilica. The location is right on the Vatican wall, so it's easy to hop in line for your tours.Cons: All the traffic that routs around the Vatican wall passes right in front of the apartment at all hours, so sleeping with the windows open for fresh air is too loud. The listing was a bit misleading. In one text section it says 3 bed, 3 bath. But in the photo section, it pictures 4 bedrooms. It was not obvious to me when booking this apartment that the 4th bedroom pictured is actually the kitchen and it's using a pullout couch/bed. When the bed is extended, it hits the corner of the dining room table and there's no way to get to the fridge without climbing over the bed. Thank goodness we did not need to do any cooking, otherwise this would have been terribly inconvenient. In summary, there are 3 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. There is a 4th room that is a kitchen with a pullout couch. There is a 4th bathroom in the hallway. I was booking for our multi-generational family of 8 and wish I'd understood that the only common room was also the 4th bedroom as we would have liked more room.The host team was very responsive on WhatsApp. The check-in process involves getting the key from a lock-box at a luggage storage facility 5 minutes away (consider using the facility on the same block as the apartment). This was a very different experience from Venice and Florence where our VRBO hosts met us at the apt with maps.

This apartment is literally in front of the Vatican and it located in a great location for visiting Rome. The apartment is also very well kept and spacious for large families that are traveling together. Two of the three bedrooms literally oversee the Vatican and you can see St. Peter's Basilica very clearly! We took family photos right from our window. The apartment had everything we needed - a bathroom for each bedroom, a nice kitchen and a great location!The property management company was also extremely responsive and helpful especially for check-in purposes. The property management company also helped us with our airport pickup taxi and apartment which helped us enjoy our trip better right from the airport!Keep in mind that the apartment is located in a beautiful historic building, which means that the elevators were installed at a later point in time. So the elevator stops between floors. To get to the apartment there are roughly 10-15 steps going up when you enter to use the elevator and another 10 or so steps down from the 5th floor to get to the apartment. It's not a lot, but something to keep in mind if traveling with a stroller or a lot of luggage. Would definitely stay there again and we highly recommend the apartment for anyone looking to stay in Rome and especially for anyone looking to be close to the Vatican! Thank you for a great stay!

The location and property is exactly as described. Roomy, clean and in a great location. The only negative was that if you are traveling with a lot of luggage you need to first go to a locker storage a few blocks away and they do not accommodate large luggage. We had to then hope to get into the apartment early to drop off our luggage and luckily they were able to have the cleaning lady meet us with a key to let us in. We were jet lagged and had to wait in the hot sun for her for about an hour - not a great way to check in. My advice is make sure you time your arrival for the proper check in time so you can skip this whole odd process….
