Casa Roberta is a two rooms very quiet apartment, just restored in the heart of the old roman district of Borgo Pio.

The area is attached to the Vatican: actually it was partially destroyed when, during the thirties, it was decided to build a huge, emperor like avenue, the famous Via della Conciliazione, to show the splendor of Saint Peter's Basilica and its colonnade to the pilgrims coming to Rome, at their arrival to Castel Sant'Angelo, which used to be first the Emperor Hadryan Mauseleum, then the Popes' fortress.

The area still existing preserves the mark of the old papal town, with narrow streets in which artisans still work under ancient shop fronts, many of them showing warning notices of heavy penalties both with scudo (Pope's money) and corporal punishments for who makes them dirty.

Borgo Pio is rich of bar, trattorias, groceries and small boutiques, and the life ellapses quietly, reflecting the behaviour of the real romans who still live there.

A corridor, on which a small but equipped kitchenette faces, leads from the entrance to the two rooms.

On the right the spacious double bedroom has two separate beds, bed tables, chest of drawers and a puff.

On the left the living room has a dining corner for 4 and a sofa bed with a second chest bed, with two comfortable mattresses 20 cms thick.

TV satellite and DVD player are available. Between the two rooms there is the door of a very spacious cabin wardrobe.

The bathroom has shower cabin.

Although is not necessary, as the apartment was built with massive walls assuring fresh temperatures during summertime, an air conditioning system is available.

This apartment is equipped with safe.

Besides the Vatican close by, it will be very pleasant for the guests to enjoy visiting the old and the ancient Rome, on one bank and the other of the Tiber river. It is possible also to catch the many sightseeeing tours by bus or a nice daily or night trip on the river by boat. Stops of both are only steps away from the apartment. All comfortable and handy for your staying in Rome!
