May 2011As we had 4 nights to spare and this was our second visit to Rome, I thought an apartment would be better value and more comfortable than a hotel. Andrea was a pleasure to deal with and the whole booking procedure was very painless. He booked a private transfer for us from the airport to the apartment and I would really recommend this service, although he does provide full details as to how to reach the apartment by public transport. The apartment is up a lot of stairs, but the advantage of this is a great view from the terrace. It is clean, spacious and well equipped and there are lots of little shops and restaurants locally (you can eat very cheaply out of town). It was nice to be in a residential neighbourhood away from all the tour groups. Rome is absolutely wonderful - vibrant, chaotic, beguiling and delightful. The no 8 tram is a great line that takes you within reach of all the sights, and the narrow, winding streets of Trastavere are just a short hop from the apartment for a spot of dinner and people watching. I can whole-heartedly recommend both the apartment and this lovely city.

April 2011This was a wonderful apartment and I loved my stay there. It was in a lovely peaceful area with a wonderful food market nearby and only a short tram ride away from the centre, so easy to get to all the sights. The apartment itself was roomy, and comfortable, amazing sunsets and sunrises, fantastic to come back to after a full day of sight seeing! Andreas was very helpful , his father kindly carried all my luggage up and down stairs when I arrived and when I left.Will definitely be going there again.

1 March 2011Lovely time spent in Rome. Walked miles everyday so didn't miss any of the sights. Apartment was spacious and clean with all the comforts of home. Great outdoor market 5 mins walk up the tram line. Down side were the 110 steps to the apartment!. The shower was very weak, we are used to a power shower! Stayed in the centre on our last visit to Rome and could nip back to our accomodation easier throughout the day, think we prefare this to the crowded tram into the centre every morning and night.
On the whole though a lovely 6 days in Rome.
Response by Andrea to Grace
"Tram 8 is the best and more efficient public transport in Rome. Unfortunately during your holiday period in Rome the service has been effected by wild strikes, hence the unusual crowded trams. The service normally runs a train every 3 minutes and if you avoid peak-hours the carriages are always empty. With regard to the shower, I am sorry about the normal pressure of the spray of water, however, please note that in no part of the advert there is a reference to a power shower being present in the bathroom".

1 February 2011We were met by andrea's father who was very helpful. Later that evening andrea phoned to check we were fine and to offer any help we might need. We were very comfortable and the appartment was very well equipted, even down to the umbrellas outide the appartment for our use. It poured the whole time, but even so we had a perfect time. The tram was very handy, taking us to the centre where we could walk or pick up other transport. We would definately return to penthouse Monteverde again and would highly reccommend it to friends.
