About this property

Roman Forum apartment

ID Lazio Region 103
Near the Roman Forum, a few steps from the Colosseum, this small and luxurious apartment for 4 people set amid the Roman remains is the perfect synthesis of ancient and modern: cozy ceilings (low) with old wooden beams, original walls from 1500, furnished with furniture and lamps of famous designers and all the comforts you want.

Welcome to my apartment: it is located in the middle of the oldest district of Rome, the 'Rione Monti', which has kept its popular spirit alive. Now, as in the old days, the whole area is a bustling maze of shops, artisans, restaurants, taverns, bars, trendy bars, art galleries, antique shops and more. And 'here that Julius Caesar was born in 100 BC and the great fire of Nero in Rome took place in AD 64: These streets are the true testimony of the history of Rome ... get ready to sleep in the middle of it all!

The apartment HomeSweetRome is a mezzanine on the first floor, consisting of a bedroom with double bed, a living room with a sofa-bed for 2 people and a bathroom with shower. Inside you will find everything you need for the best stay in Rome: air conditioning and heating, LCD TV with DVD player, washing machine and dryer, iron and ironing board, tourist guides and maps. The kitchen is fully equipped with electric hobs, fridge, freezer, oven and microwave, kettle, juicer, toaster, coffee maker and more to allow you to cook your own meals.

Nearby, if you wish, you can rent bikes and scooters. However, the metro is just 5 ??minute walk, but more importantly, HomeSweetRome is really in the heart of Rome, from here you can quickly reach on foot:

Roman Forum - 1 min.
Colosseum - 5 min.
Trevi Fountain - 7 min.
Pantheon - 10 min.
Piazza Navona - 15 min.
Campo de 'Fiori - 15 min.
Vatican Museums - 20/30 min.

Fabulous Flat
We stayed in this cute little flat for two nights and it had everything we needed, and it was located in a perfect location just to few blocks from the Colosseum and from some amazing restaurants. We will definitely stay in this flat again the next time we are in Rome. The hosts were always quick to respond to any communications and they assisted us with transportation from the airport to the flat. This is a hidden gem, do not miss out!

Property ideally located. However, bathroom needs attention, especially the shower surrounds and walls. Not super clean in bedroom, especially under bed which was very dusty, and didn't appear to have been cleaned in a while. Also, although we appreciate this needs to be done, maintenance men were working on the communal staircase the day before we left, which was exceptionally noisy. Noise continued the following morning, when water was switched off at exactly 10am, on day of our departure, leaving us unable to flush the toilet.

Cozy Apt in perfect location
I booked this apt for me & my mom. Our first mother/daughter trip to Italy. We stayed for 2 nights before heading to Florence and would definitely stay here again in the future. Apt was clean & cozy. Just right for the two of us. Location is perfect & we loved walking to dinner in evenings and felt perfectly safe. Owner was very responsive and process was seamless.

Fantastic location, great space. We were greeted by a lovely lady, even though we did not arrive until late in the evening, she took us through the apartment. So close we walked around the Roman Forum and the Colosseum that night. Great restaurants and coffee close by and it was not too far to get to the express airport train when leaving.

Perfect location and apartment
If I could give 10 stars I would. This apartment is around the corner from the Coliseum and on the backside of the Forum. You can enjoy local (non touristy) restaurants within a few steps of the apartment. The apartment had everything we needed, olive oil, seasoning, dish and clothes detergent, soaps,etc….

Fantastic Roman Forum stay
The host Niccolò met us at the apartment with a bottle of wine. The apartment was super clean. Better than pictured on VRBO. Location could not have been any better. We had everything that we needed would definitely stay there again lots of guide books available. Also a book made by the property owners, which was very helpful.

Location, character and quirks
A simple map doesn’t prepare you for the vibrancy and character of the location and the general area. The Forum is literally down the (close) end of the street and around the corner and the Coliseum is visible within a couple of blocks from the other end. The street itself is narrow and cobbled. It's Rome in a microcosm. The character continues inside with the thick wooden-beamed ceiling and old entrance door. Other reviews have noted that the ceilings are somewhat low but that didn't worry us because neither of us are particularly 'tall'. Another review also noted that the pillows are hard, and they are - gloriously so! Easily the best pillows I slept on in our weeks in Italy. There are many restaurants and bars in the street but sleep was not a problem because the bedroom is at the rear. But don't open the bedroom curtains! The lounge area is spacious and the kitchen is modern and well-equipped, as is the bathroom which has a couple of quirks in the sink tapware - well explained by our host's representative - and shower door, though I don't think the shower would make the list of the top ten hottest showers I've ever had. The other quirk is at the entrance with some variable-height steps to enter and a low ceiling to avoid on exiting. You'll be doing well if you don't trip upwards once. Clara & Massimo were great hosts who communicated very well and were accommodating and flexible. All in all, we had a great time at this apartment and would wholeheartedly recommend it.

The apartment was really clean and picturesque. Massimo has really done a great job at maintaining the old school feel of the space while at the same time adding a touch of modernity. Definitely recommend staying here! Also the suggested restaurants and bars were great l. Thank you again Niccolo!

Stay here when in Rome
This is such a perfect little apartment to stay in. The most amazing neighborhood, close to everything but feels far away. Beautifully decorated, with all the amenities you would want. Wonderful people run the place, and there’s a great little restaurant across the way. Will definitely stay here again.

Pictures are very different from what you see in person. Low ceilings and dirty.
I have stayed at a few vrbos over the years. None of which have been a problem. I am not someone who expects a lot in these places. I do expect certain standards met. A basic standard clean was NOT met. We didn't realize our issue till the 2nd day. A musty/moldy smell was in the bedroom. AC had black mold inside. Living room AC did not appear cleaned. Top of kitchen cabinets were not clean. Shower walls yellow stains. Shower trim was filthy. Both bottom corners had black mold. Bathroom faucet leaked a bit when in use. For reference my brother is 6ft and I'm 5 '11. Not tall enough where we need to duck through doorways on a daily basis. This apartment was a different story. The living room a person 6-6 '2 could stand up in no problem. The doorway into the apartment we had to duck a good 8-12 inches. The whole walk through the kitchen you have to duck about 5 inches. Walking through the bathroom and bedroom doorway you have the duck about 5 inches. The extra pillows provided not clean and multiple stains. Rug in the bedroom was filthy. I would not recommend this apartment to anyone. We had an overdue balance of an extra night due on april 30th before the trip. I didn't pay prior to contacting the manager with AC mold issue. I told her, I think that we shouldn't have to pay the extra night bec of the mold. She called me “deceitful” for not paying the balance before the stay. I paid it so this review can be creditable. A free extra night would be the least they can do.

Convenient location to the historical sights
We enjoyed our stay in this conveniently located apartment. It was within easy walking distance of the main attractions in Rome as well as restaurants and cafes. The apartment was clean and had all the key amenities you need for a stay in Rome. Our host was friendly and also provided great recommendations for the area. Since our stay was in the extreme heat of July, the AC struggled to keep the apartment cool. However, I am sure in less extreme heat, the AC would be fine. Otherwise, it’s a nice place to stay when visiting Rome and a great location in Monti for convenient access to everything.

Perfect Location
This location is perfect. Close to the Colosseum, Forum and Palantine Hill. Couldn’t ask for a better location for our first visit to Rome. We loved the apartment. It was well appointed and very cute. They provided dish detergent and laundry detergent, which was an added bonus. We are short so ceiling height was not an issue. We found the location to be quiet for a downtown city spot. There are tons of restaurants nearby and many grocery and pharmacy options. Things to know: there is a $50 per day up charge for using the pull out couch. There is a 6€ per person per day City tax, which must be paid in cash upon arrival. The a/c will only lower the temperature to 80 degrees when outside temperatures are 100 degrees. The host brought fans, which helped a lot and it was still much cooler than outside. We would definitely stay again.

The apartment was unique and beautiful. Pizza next door was amazing, gelato across the street was good. We laughed because our taxi almost hit a table and chairs for the restaurant on the corner on our way in, everything was quaint and close. We absolutely loved the place, from check-in process, to when we had to leave, it was great. Our one thing we wanted was colder AC in the bedroom, but it was a heatwave when we went, so other times of year are likely fine.
