This fine apartment is situated in the very heart of Rome,
at the second floor of a vintage "palazzo". There
is no elevator but the stairs are very easy to climb. The
apartment is 140 sq. Mts. large (app. 1,400 sq. Ft.). Moreover
there is a 50 sq. Mts. patio (app. 500 sq.Ft.). The apartment
is bright, and extremely quiet (a find in Rome). Via della
Croce on the contrary is lively, although only pedestrians
are allowed. It includes characteristic restaurants, trendy
cafes, fashionable boutiques and cosy grocery stores.
The master bedroom is ample. It includes a king-size
bed upholstered according to Louis 16th, with on top
a fine and large tapestry. The bedside tables are made
of mahogany with bronze trimmings, just like the chest
of drawers.

the sitting room. Both rooms have though own doors (i.e.
a third door), and so can be entered separately. The
