The apartment is ideal for everyone who wants to live directly in the city center and still would like to be able to sleep quietly.

It also hardly has any pedestrian traffic because there is no shopping street that would attract the tourists. Other than a small grocery store in the neighboring house, there are hardly any stores or bars nearby. You can find a rich selection of these right around the corner in the via dei Serpenti, the via Panisperna etc. Short evening walks to good restaurants or to a nice, small pizzeria nearby are also unlimited, just as daily 'shopping' right from your door. If you would like, you can discover the entire old city of Rome without every having to see the inside of a bus or train! |
