The entrance from Via dei Cappellari

The entrance of the apt., main corridor

It is a large upscale apartment, at the second floor off the street level (it would be at the third floor in the USA, we in Europe would say it's at the second floor). There is no elevator, because it is a historical palace, but the steps are not steep.
After the door a spacious and rather long corridor brings to the various parts of the apartment. The unit is 140 square meters large (app. 1,420 square feet), it is utmost *silent*, and bright.
It includes two double bedrooms, one with twin beds, the second (master bedroom) with a king size bed. Both bedrooms are large, spacious, and well furnished, with antiques. The twin bedded room includes a bathroom with shower box. The bathroom of the master bedroom is adjacent, in the corridor of the apartment. It includes a bathtub with hand-held shower.

Sitting room opposite view

The sitting room is very large (9 x 5 meters - app. 9.5 x 5.5 yards.). It has high-vault wooden beam ceilings, and most elegant wooden floors. It includes a perfectly large working fireplace (a rarity in Rome's centre), giving joy and warmth to the entire apartment. It is furnished with antiques, and in includes a (vertical) piano. The large window of this room, together with the windows of the twin bedded room and of the kitchen, face a very rare old courtyard, including a simple and characteristic 17th century popular Roman house, with arch and stairs, and a space in front with plants.
On the other hand the sitting room has two doors, with the form of arches, leading respectively to the kitchen and to the dining room.
