| Rome, Angelina |
"Wonderful roof top terrace." |
| Exquisite Terraced Apartment by the Spanish Steps |



Elegance, taste, amenities and views abound in this five star apartment that is a two minute walk to the Spanish Steps.
We have to use superlatives when it comes to the lovely Angelina apartment. The roof top terrace and balcony allow you to enjoy the wonderful weather of Rome and timeless views of the Eternal City. Everything has been considered for lifetime memories of Rome.
The Spanish Steps location is so popular because it is very central. The graceful steps and the piazza are beautiful albeit usually bustling with visitors. From this location many of the important sites of Rome are within a 15 minute walking radius. Fine shops and restaurants abound in this district. Transportation is also easy from this home ba
The handsome marble-lined lobby leads right to a modern elevator that takes you to the top floor. There are no steps to get to the elevator or to the apartment. There is, however, a spiral staircase leading to the rooftop terrace.
Across the large living and dining area of the apartment are three French doors that open onto a full balcony with views of rooftops and the church across the street and you can look down into the street, too.
If you need to keep connected, you will find a landline telephone as well as the complimentary use of a PC with high speed internet connection.
The living room is big enough for entertaining. It offers a sofa, a love seat and three arm chairs. The colors are quiet and rich. An oriental carpet echoes the reds in a large antique tapestry fr
The balcony has a table and a series of terra cotta planters all along the outside of the rail. You can enjoy a view of the facade of S. Andrea delle Frate church across the street, the little piazza below with a newsstand and the parade of people traveling to and from Piazza di Spagna.
From the entryway, a narrow, spiral stair case rises sixteen steps to the private rooftop terrace. The terrace has a rush mat cover to reduce the heat of the sun and terra cotta pots with green and flowering plants depending on the season. It is open on three sides, the fourth being painted with a unobtrusive fresco of the Roman skyline. Why focus on the fresco, when the real thing is just beyond? You can see St Peter's dome, the Pantheon, the presidential palace, and the top of the spires on nearby Trinita di Monti church at the top of the Spanish Steps and more. A cafe table and four chairs are enough for all guests. Also, there is a stone sink and a small refrigerator. Keep your cocktail items where you need them!
The bedroom is well-sized, holding a queen sized bed, night stands, a television set and two closets. The en-suite bathroom is very nicely done offering a shower, toilet, bidet and a sink in marble. Next to the bathroom is a small room with more wonderful views. It houses the washing machine hidden inside a cabinet. It also contains a comfortable chair for a quiet place to read.
The sleeping loft is accessed by a pretty staircase that rises from the living room. There is just room for a French twin bed and cabinet on top of which is another television set. There is room to stand up and walk from one end of the bed to the other (i.e. the loft is larger than the bed itself).

| Angelina is a great apartment! | Dec 2008 |
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Angelina apartment. The location is central, with most of things we wanted to see first being within a short walk. The apartment itself is charming. It feels like you are borrowing someone's personal apartment, not like a rental at all. Everything works. Yes, the view in the photo is really the view from the terrace. The service was as good as you could hope for. There were no surprises, no hidden fees. We arrived late on a Saturday. Despite the fact that our flight was delayed, Elvi was waiting to give us a warm welcome and show us everything. When we return to Rome we will certainly rent an apartment through Italy Perfect and may well rent Angelina again. |

| Great Apartment | Nov 2008 |
We can't imagine staying in this beautiful, exciting, crowded, noisy area anywhere but in this wonderful apartment. It is high enough to be above it all and yet right where you want to be when you go out. Right in the middle! The apartment is big and light, the livingroom all windows on one side, and the bedroom big and restful, no windows at night if you close all the doors. A perfect nest in which to sleep. The bathroom is modern and lovely, and there is a divine patio at the top of a spiral staircase, where you will want to have wine in the evening while you enjoy the view of St Peter's and the birds over the skyline, or coffee in the early morning. And Elvi gave us a perfect welcome to the apartment, the neighborhood and the city. She was at the street door when we arrived, took us up to the apartment, showed us where everything was and how it worked, then gave us short tour of the immediate neighborhood, which included directions to the supermarket. There are Rome books in the cabinet on the sun porch, a small computer on the desk in the livingroom and an espresso maker in the kitchen. We wouldn't stay anywhere else when in Rome! |

| You will NOT be disappointed with the services | Aug 2008 |
Our accommodations were excellent - great location and everything that we needed for our stay was available. Someone greeted us (as was noted) and our stay was extremely comfortable. We enjoyed the location above all. Very well organized and was exactly what we expected. The location was the highlight of the trip. Most surrounding restaurants were great - Mirabelle was exceptiolly great, but pricey. Only tip is "you will NOT be disappointed with the services". |

| The Angelina apartment was wonderful | Jul 2008 |
The Angelina apartment was wonderful, and the greeter is a delight. We had a great time in Rome, and only encountered one bus strike. We really enjoyed the Alla Rampa restaurant just near the Spanish Steps. We will be happy to refer Italy Perfect and the properties we stayed in. Perhaps we will use Paris Perfect next.... |

| It was exactly as described. | Jun 2008 |
We had a great time. Thank-you very much. We will DEFINITELY use your services again. The apartment was terrific. It was exactly as described. Perhaps better. The cleaning lady was cheerful, helpful, and a pleasure to deal with. Rome is great. I think I'm going to move. As for drawbacks, the computer was in pretty bad shape and really not useful for getting onto the internet. [Needed a virus cleanup that has been done, but it is still an older machine. Pat] The location is as central as you can get. The neighborhood is basically the 57th Street of Rome. Every high fashion store on the planet is within a block or two. I'd recommend a wonderful, neighborhood place on the square in Testaccio - It's the only sidewalk cafe there, and the food is great, the prices reasonable, and NO tourists. The most interesting shops were on the streets immediately around the Piazza Fiori. Tips for future guests: Rome's expensive. Bring lots of money. Also go on a diet first so you can fit into the great clothes they have all over the place. You were great. The only thing I'd recommend is that you suggest how much to leave the cleaning lady for a tip. We left 50 euro, but weren't sure if that was right. |

| 4+ on a scale of 1 to 5. | Apr 2008 |
Overall, I would give Angelina a 4+ on a scale of 1 to 5. I enjoyed the most the spaciousness, the marble bath, and the terraces. Elvi was so sweet and did several things to help us out. When the toilet didn't work, we were very worried. [The entire toilet was replaced. Pat] The location is central, convenient. Crowded, but we didn't care. You were very responsive! I was impressed that you were so reachable. |

| We loved the Angelina apartment | Oct 2007 |
We were so touched by the incredibly warm response from Elvi at the Angelina apartment. She was amazing - invited us to go for a walk to see the neighbourhood so we saw the Trevi fountain and Spanish Steps and had a gelato within two hours of arriving in Rome! We loved the Angelina apartment and appreciated the addition of milk, coffee, tea, fresh fruit, some pasta, tomato sauce, cookies, etc. The bed was incredibly comfortable (loved the linen sheets) and there was not a sound through the night! The location could not be beat. But honestly, it was Elvi's warm welcome that set the tone for our stay there. |

| The element that made it so wonderful was the roof top nest | Sep 2007 |
We thought the accommodation was very special. The element that made it so wonderful for us was the roof top nest where we could sip our wine, taste our cheese, listen to opera on our ipod and gaze at the at the softly glimmering Roman skyline. Enjoyed the most: Tasting the food delights of Rome in the privacy of our own apartment. We were a bit shell shocked when we first arrived into Rome from the Almalfi coast to find that we were contributing to a total tourist invasion (mid Sept). When we walked out of our apartment it was like entering the ground floor of a Department store on the first day of the Sales. However we eventually got used to it and even found some very friendly locals in the nearby supermarket who were genuinely helpful and not at all intolerant of tourists. If we were to go back we would have a bit of a dilemma because we both loved the apartment but think it was probably a bit of a mistake to position ourselves slap bang between the Spanish Steps and the Trevi fountain during the high tourist season. However I think we might be tempted to book the same apartment but at a time which was less touristy. We enjoyed a walk to Trastevere where we found a total non-tourist eatery called Saverio which we could highly recommend. Service was very good. Elvie was very sweet and helpful. Despite my rabbitting on about “tourists” (which includes us) we had a great time and Angelina, bless her, was a big part of why we had a such an enjoyable visit to Roma. |

| Really enjoyed our stay at Angelina in Rome | Sep 2007 |
My husband and I had a wonderful trip to Italy and really enjoyed our stay at Angelina in Rome. We especially enjoyed the rooftop terrace where we watched many sunsets! The location was ideal for us and we would definitely stay there again. Having the computer in the apartment was very nice, also. We also appreciated your [restaurant] recommendations and tried several of them. One of our best meals was at al Piccolo arrancio. The only mystery was the dryer setting on the washer/dryer combo unit. I guess we were not patient enough but we maged with the old fashioned, air-dry method. I will certainly recommend you to my network, Lisa. |

| The location of the apartment was perfect | Jun 2007 |
My husband and I stayed in the Angelina apartment in Rome the last week of June, 2007. The greeting was very hospitable. For a group of three, Angelina was perfect. My mother loved the charming loft, especially because the air conditioning worked so well. In fact, the A/C in the apartment was a luxury during a week Rome experienced record high temperatures. We enjoyed relaxing in the apartment during the warmest part of each day; we made ourselves get up and out early to enjoy as much of the city as we could, and thoroughly enjoyed our quiet time in the apartment in the afternoons. The living room was spacious and offered enough room for the three of us to spread out a bit. The compact kitchen was workable. All in all, it was a very clean apartment and we really enjoyed our stay. But wait!!! I almost forgot the best part! The roof-top terrace! We ate at least one meal a day up there, usually two. The location of the apartment was perfect, within walking distance of almost everything. Well, for hard-core walkers. A few times, our tired feet demanded we take a taxi back. We had a wonderful vacation and much appreciated the efficient service and useful Rome tourism tips and restaurant recommendations from ItalyPerfect. |

| Always fun to see celebrities! | Jun 2007 |
I wanted to drop you a note to say how much we enjoyed the Angelina apartment in Rome...especially the location. The weather in Rome for that week was hot but we had a marvelous, enjoyable time in that wonderful city. We met the greeter the morning of our arrival and she was extremely helpful and pleasant. We also appreciated the bottled water and wine in the refrigerator and fresh fruit on the table...what a nice touch. The weather being so very hot, it was doubly appreciated. The location was wonderful. Also, we got to meet [actor] Owen Wilson several times during the week as he was staying somewhere in the next building..one or two doors down from our entrance. We seemed to be on the same schedule coming and going on many days. Always fun to see celebrities! |

| Neat flat, great location and warm welcome by Elvira. | May 2007 |
Neat flat, great location and warm welcome by Elvira. The only thing I can think to gripe about are the pigeons on the roof terrace, which I guess tells you that we have nothing to complain about! Thanks. |

| For joggers, the location is perfect | Nov 2006 |
The apartment was wonderful. We loved it. It was comfortably furnished, the bed was comfortable, the kitchen was more than adequately eqipped, the computer (high speed internet) was a great convenience, and the owners even provided a few welcoming groceries and a bottle of wine ( a lovely touch). We enjoyed having coffee and cereal at home in the morning and being able to eat dinner at home a couple of nights. We also enjoyed relaxing in the pleasant living room with the guidebook and planning the next day, with the computer nearby to make reservations. The location is wonderfully convenient for shopping, siteseeing and dining. For joggers, the location is perfect--we jogged in the Borghese gardens every morning. The Trevi Fountain and Spanish Steps are just a "stone's throw" away. The church across the street is definitely worth a visit. There is a new shop in the same block as the apartment (I don't recall the name) that sells interesting jewelry made of Murano glass. Your website was the best that I found when I was looking for an apartment in Rome (although I didn't find it through a web search; rather through Mariann). The site provides excellent detail and a fair assessment of the apartment. There were no surprises. The car service you recommended worked well. Your follow-up e-mail in the middle of our stay was also welcome. I have been singing your praises to everyone and have recommended your website to several interested people. We will definitely be in touch for our next trip to Italy. |
