DOMUS PICTA . GET INTO THE GROOVES OF ANCIENT ROME , right in the center !

Bright, funky, délabré stylish 3 bedrooms/ 2 bathroom apartment about a 10 minute walk from Termini station and 2 blocks from the red line metro at Piazza Vittorio, Rome’s ethnic quarter. On the fourth floor with Elevator, Wifi, AC,Washing machine, fully equipped kitchen.Linen and towels all provided.

Domus Picta is an unique funky, délabré stylish apartment .It was once destined to be an artist’s studio who painstakingly stripped the walls of decades worth of paint to reveal the original turn of the century interior. Paintings and thoughtfully hand picked furniture that enhances the flow of the apartment. On the fourth floor easily accessible with elevator. It has 3 large, bright, cool and quiet double bedrooms, two brand new bathrooms with shower, and an open plan living room with a fully equipped kitchen, a dining area that seats 8 people, living area with a comfortable sofa and arm chairs. Wifi connection and Air Conditioning is in every room. Consciously we didn’t add a TV to the apartment because we think that the apartment is so charming and the beautiful city of Rome offers too much to do that you will not miss your TV time.

Features:

-Elevator
-Air Conditioning
-WiFi
-Induction stove
-dishwasher
-electric oven
-iron board and iron
-laundry drying rack
-hair dryer
-electric kettle
-toaster

One unique feature of this apartment are the restored wall paintings that are originals from the 1800 era.
The apartment is at your disposal.
Located near Roma’s largest fruit and vegetable market and the Piazza Vittorio metro station, it’s good place for someone who wants easy access from Termini, and wants to be at the center of all major tourist attractions, easily reachable by foot, metro or other public transportations. Right behind your apartment building you can enjoy cocktails at the Rooftop Terrace Radisson Hotel. The nearest Parking is in Via Giolitti, few meters from your house. 5 minutes walk in Piazza Vittorio Emanuele 106. my favorite Bar " GATSBY," super bloody mary !

Unique Rome
Rome is my favorite city and this was an ideal place to stay, near the train station, the subway and many restaurants. Cortana was very easy to deal with and extremely responsive.

Authentic Italy
If you are looking for an authentic Italian experience, this is your place. It has an "old world" feel with modern amenities. It is also within walking distance to many of the places you will want to see while in Rome. Costanza was very helpful! She booked a driver to pick us up from the airport and gave us tips on where to eat, how to get around, etc. She even met us later (after our stay) to return an item we left in the apartment. We had an all around, excellent experience.

A perfect stay in Rome
The property was an absolutely beautiful converted art studio which helped us get into the spirit of Rome. The location next to the train station was easy for luggage, and the sights were a quick lime ride away. Costanza was an excellent host, giving us many tips on where to go for food and gelato which all turned out to be absolutely fantastic! We would definitely book here again and highly recommend!

Close to everything!
We found the flat very comfortable for our group of 4. I appreciated the amenities provided like spices, oil, etc for cooking. While o reserved for 3 people and we arrived with a 4th, we were charged an extra $80 for the 4th person. None of our other VRBOs did that, so not sure about that one. Very close to the colosseum and other points we planned to visit.

Overpriced near Termini
This 3 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment looks great in the photos, but it isn't. It's distinctly tatty and has seen better days. Our check-in didn't go smoothly - we were kept waiting for 30 minutes for the host to turn up. In the apartment itself multiple lights were not working, there was no WiFi, no TV, no tea towels. And we were asked to leave a tip for the cleaner despite the €100 cleaning fee ! The neighbourhood itself is far from salubrious. Not recommended

Great location
Costanza met us, introduced us to the apartment's features and took us for a coffee to share details about the area and Rome in general. We loved the neighborhood where the flat was located. There were restaurants, shopping, a park, coffee bar, the train/subway terminal, and large fresh food market all within short walking distance. The apartment was roomy and comfortable and just as described. Wish we had been staying longer!

Good location to Termini!
Easy access to metro and Termini Station. Costanza very responsive to correspondence and letting us know cafe and grocer (open market was amazing!) locations as well as sights to see. A couple of suggestions to be more user friendly would be more toilet paper, and making available paper towels and napkins.

Girls Trip to Italy
Myself, my sister, and my adult daughter enjoyed the start of our Italy trip at this property! We enjoyed meeting with Constanza, who provided us with excellent information and steered us to the best meal we had in Rome! The beds were so comfy and the AC was a nice welcome from our tours during the hot days! We loved the apartment and the cute details. It was fun for us to get in extra steps with using the stairs and/or using the tiny lift if we were too tired. The super close cafe provided delicious cafe and cornettos and was our favorite start to the day. The location to the Termini was very nice as well as the metro station and both enabled us to navigate Rome easily. We highly recommend this fun apartment!!! Thank you so much Constanza for your recommendations and welcoming hospitality!

A great stay!
We stayed here for 4 nights before heading to another location, and it was perfect for us. We loved the kitchen area and all the rooms were very comfortable. It was great to have 2 bathrooms, though the shower in the bigger bedroom was much nicer. The elevator was broken during most of our stay so that was a bummer but out of the hosts control. We enjoyed our time here!

Rome Family Vacation
Apartment is great, with excellent air conditioning, which was vital as it was 95° everyday and we're Americans, so, yeah. Neighborhood is a bit grimy but very diverse with some great author restaurants. Location for family turned out to not ne ideal because it's too far from tourist attractions, but that's our fault, not the host's, who is responsive, helpful, and yet non-intrusuve. Really beautiful apartment.

Wonderful base of operations!
The apartment was perfect for our family of 4, with each kid getting his own room. It was conveniently located within a 10 minute walk of the train station (Roma Termini) with a park (with live music most nights), metro station, shops, and plenty of restaurants nearby. It was a 20 minute walk to the Colosseum and other popular sights. Costanza was friendly, prompt, and helpful with tips for food and places to go but then left us to our own devices. The apartment was clean and well-appointed with extremely quick and effective air conditioning... A necessity in the July heatwave we were there for! The only negatives were outside of the apartment itself. We encountered a rat in the stairwell, broken glass in the hallways, and a lot of late-night and early-morning noise but these things are all out of the control of the renter so didn't affect the overall rating. And that overall rating is excellent. I would stay here again and definitely recommend the place to someone looking for lots of space (3 couples could stay here comfortably) and a comfortable stay just on the edge of the downtown core.

Fabulous owner and delightful property
Costanza is absolutely a gem to work with....I was ready to go grab an appertif with her! She takes a lot of pride in her apartment, as she should. It was very nice, super clean and felt very authentic Rome. She helped us organize a private driver from the airport upon our arrival, which was immensely helpful as we were in a fog from flying all night. She was also very helpful with restaurant suggestions and how to get around. This is within walking distance to the Roma Termini train station, which is super convenient. We were able to all walk with our rolling bags there in about 7 minutes. The neighborhood in the evening is fine, but I wouldn't want to be a single female walking through there in the evening/night. Definitely a buddy system....as you should probably always be in Rome. :) I can't say enough positive things about Costanza and what she provided for us.

Great stay in Rome
Nice apartment in Rome. Short walk from Rome Termini, even with luggage. Comfortable for 5 adults. Was nice to have an elevator (small) to help with luggage as apartment was up a few flights. Constanza, property owner, was very friendly. She recommended nearby restaurant, Trattoria Vecchia Roma (reservation needed) which was excellent! She also helped arrange a car to pick us up for a very early trip to the airport.

We really enjoyed staying in this apartment. It’s a huge 3 bedroom, two full bathrooms, with all the amenities of home. There were even some thoughtful additions like coffee and tea and condiments. A full stocked kitchen for cooking. (Though you are in Rome, so who wants to cook.) We walked every where from there. And it’s only a two minute walk to Roma Termini train station. Highly recommend.

This apartment was perfect for us (2 couples) while staying in Rome. The location was excellent ... just a few minutes walk from the Vittorio Emanuele Metro station, a wonderful Farmers Market just steps away, and plenty of restaurants within walking distance.

This is a beautiful apartment located near the train station in Rome in an area that was not very pretty. If you don't mind walking, you are about 30 minutes from the Colosseum and a bit further to the Trevi Fountain and Spanish Steps. The lift in the apartment was very helpful especially if traveling with luggage, and public transportation was very easy to navigate. The apartment was very clean and comfortable for the 6 of us.

A month in Rome
This was the first time we had an extended stay in Rome so we picked this apt as it was close to the Roma Termini. While not in the center of the main attractions, we were 1 block from the subway which made it easy to get anywhere in the city. The apt was well equipped with a large kitchen-living area and 3 large bedrooms. An elevator made access easy. Our host gave us many suggestions and had local maps which helped with getting around. Restaurants were abundant within walking distance. Overall an enjoyable stay in a beautiful city.
