The recently renewed apartment is on the ground floor of a noble building dating back to 1760, and has been created by the Marquis Giambattista Collicola Monthioni, a great appreciator of the fine arts, Governor of Spoleto and Major Messenger of the Holy Apostolic Palaces.

In the backyard you can find an old fountain, built by the famous architect Bernini. It’s made up of a living room with sofa bed and dining corner, a double bedroom with decorated ceilings, fully equipped kitchen, bathroom with shower. It is provided with Internet connection and wireless connection, Tv, Hi-Fi Radio. The “Cotto” flooring, the vaulted ceiling, a both modern and antique furniture of great quality and valuable tapestry together with the ideal location make this elegant apartment one of a kind.

Great location

We couldn't have chosen a better location to stay during our time in Rome. Within walking distance to the metro and so many must see places. Nicola was a great manager who went above and beyond to help us coordinate with the airport lost baggage department and their courier when one of our pieces of luggage did not arrive at the airport with our flight. Thank you for all your help!

Quaint

This place is a great location. Easy to walk to wherever you want to go/see. The room was humid and warm. The night air helped but it was the same the next day. No A/c and several of the fans didn’t work. There was enough fans there to find one that worked. If you are tall you will find yourself sucking a lot. Marco was an excellent host for us.

Haven in the heart of Rome

Nestled in a narrow lane, a few steps from the green banks of the Tevere and the Augustus mausoleum and a few blocks from Piazza di Spagna and the Pantheon, this apartment is a cosy and quiet place to rest after your tours in the historical district. On your way, you will be able to buy everything you need for a relaxing happy hour or supper at the nearby Carrefour Express including antipasti and wine. Also a butcher shop offers tasty meat (via Asconia corner Prefetti) while his uncle sells poultry and fresh eggs on the other side of the street. We stayed in the apartment for 9 nights and enjoyed every bit of it. We appreciated the security, the access (no stairs at all), quietness and location with several usefull bus lines nearby. Thanks to Sergio, Nicola and Gabrielle for their warm welcome.

Excellent location

The location is excellent and close to many important historical sites, restaurants, shops. Walking distance to so many important sites, safe, and clean neighborhood. The manager is excellent and the staff responded without delay to my questions. Includes a queen size bed, and double sofa bed. Dinning table sits 5/6. Small but nice refrigerator and appropriate little kitchen for breakfast and very simple “cooking “. Clean towels and sheets provided. Small washing machine also very handy. Enjoyed our stay very much.

Great retreat in Rome!

We'd give the Lupa flat six stars for location. We were able to walk to everything and only needed a taxi on arrival and departure. Sergio and Nicole were very helpful. The kitchen is pretty tiny and limited for cooking at home, but there are so many great places to eat nearby, it wasn't a problem for us. I'd recommend the taxi on arrival as the street and apartment door are difficult to find the first time, especially in the dark. We would be very happy to stay there again.

Perfect location and accommodation

This flat was exactly as pictured and provided the perfect location and accommodation for a stay in Roma. Everything is within walking distance. We explored all areas of the city and never considered anything but walking. Valentino was responsive when necessary. At first the apartment may seem a little small, but in actuality has everything you need to be comfortable! We couldn't believe how great the location was and would stay here again with no hesitation. If you are debating whether to stay here, just do it! You won't be sorry.

When In Rome Do as the Romans Do!

The best thing about this property is the location! You can walk to many of the essential sites, restaurants, (there is a neighborhood small grocery store just down the street to the Piazza Borghese, called the "Pam" store. It has most everything you need for items that you need to prepare yourself simpler meals in the kitchen for breakfast, lunch and dinner if you dont want to go out every time you need to eat! The kitchen is small, but still efficient enough... Americans have to learn how to deal with smaller living spaces and kitchen spaces when in Europe, unless you want to spend a lot of money.... We were able to prepare simple meals when we did not feel like going out for a meal. I am a 6 foot tall man. The entrance to the bedroom is about 5 feet high, but I managed just fine not to bump my head. the ceilings are high, otherwise I would have felt claustrophobic because all rooms are small but sufficient! The Wifi works but the signal is not strong enough in the living room/ dining room area. So, you have to walk back into the bedroom with your device where the signal source modem is located and the signal becomes strong enough. Then you can take your device back into the living room and it will work for a while before you have to take your device back into the bedroom again..It is situations like this that seem frustrating at the time, but one has to get used to in order to accomplish what you are trying to do. The Staff here was very responsive and helpful

Be sure to triple check your booking!

When I made this booking almost a year ago, I asked if the flat was accessible by wheelchair. I was told it was on the bottom floor and it was no problem. I contacted the "manager" of the flat 2 months prior to my visit again reminding them of the wheelchair. When my driver delivered me to the address, the door was blocked by garbage bins and could not open wide enough to get into the building. So at the last minute I had to pay an additional fee to the driver to take me somewhere else...and stay somewhere that cost me more than double what I had anticipated I would pay. The only thing this manager offered to do was to give me my money back....well, no duh of course I'm getting my money back..::but what about the bank fees to pay from America to Italy, the extra cost for my driver, the extra cost to stay in a hotel and the $30 a day I had to pay to get transportation from my out of the way hotel to see the Roman sites? I was offered nothing! Which in my eyes makes this owner a BAD person to rent from!

Home Away from Home

I stayed at the Lupa Flat for 31 days while I was doing a study abroad program in Rome. I'm a non-traditional student so I wasn't interested in student housing. This was my first trip to Europe so everything was new and different. I was greeted by Daniela who was warm and welcoming. She helped me with all my questions. Let me warn you, if you've never been to Rome, nothing is as it seems it should be........it's part of the charm. Go out and get lost, trust me you will. The apartment manager Nicola was outstanding. She was so kind and very responsive. I must say, she really went above and beyond. Thank you Nicola! The apartment owners were also very helpful and gracious. Take advantage of some of the "add on" services they offer. I used the airport shuttle roundtrip and it was well worth it. You are moments from the Spanish Steps, Pasquale's for pizza, a great coffee shop, Via Tomacelli, Via Della Scrofa and Via Del Corso are also very close by. The bus stop and taxi stand is literally 6 blocks away (only take white taxi's; the others are a scam). You also have 2 of the best gelato places very close to you Gelatini and Grom. I prefer Grom but to each their own:) The apartment is the perfect home base. The kitchen has everything you need to make a quick meal. They provide you with a Nespresso machine and if you've never tried it I STRONGLY encourage you to do so. Very nice extra to have in the flat. You can buy capsules at the Nespresso boutique near the Spanish Steps. The shower worked great; I never ran out of hot water. Apartment is quiet for a large city. As the description clearly states there is only a washer and not a dryer. Also no microwave but a handy little toaster over. The flat is in an excellent location. Great neighborhood and I always felt very safe. I was there by myself and didn't feel like I had to worry. Excellent staff, outstanding location, and an amazing city! Thank you for everything. I will be back next year in Settembre and will definitely be staying with you again!

Perfect location

We spent two weeks here. The flat is small but well-appointed and very convenient. We walked to almost everything, and when we needed to take the Metro, the Spagna station is just a short walk (8 minutes) away. There's a supermarket and several bancomats nearby. We ate at many neighborhood restaurants and never had a bad meal. We took advantage of some of the extras: airport pickup and drop-off was convenient and well worth it. The welcome basket provided us with lunches for the whole first week. After walking all day, we were grateful not to have to climb stairs to get home! Thanks Sergio, Valentina, and Ncola for a wonderful stay in Roma!

Romantic and convenient

We spent 5 delightful days in this exceptionally conveniently located apartment. we were met exactly as we had been told, oriented thoroughly and efficiently to the apartment, and provided with plenty of emergency support. The apartment was everything and more than we had expected--very well equipped with many comforts such as an easy espresso machine and extra pillows, and delightfully quirky. The location couldn't have been better. We literally walked to every place we wanted to visit including the Vatican, the Coloseum, the Spanish Steps (every evening!), the Borghese gardens and museum. There were excellent restaurants and cafes all around us. We felt like citizens of the city--it was lovely.

Perfect Location in Rome

This was our first time in Rome, we stayed at the Lupa Flat for 4 nights. Our host met us when we arrived and provided us a welcome basket (we had paid for one). The apartment is located between the Spanish Steps and the Trevi fountain and it's located close to some high end shops. The WiFi made looking things up very easy. The apartment is the right size for a family of 4. It's located on the ground floor. The kitchen is a bit small but it comes with a washer, toaster oven a small refrigerator. I would recommend this apartment to anyone interested in visiting Rome. We took the taxi from the Roma Termini station and it costs 10 Euros (8 Euro for the ride and 2 Euro for our 4 luggage/backpack). There is a Supermarket located about 5 minutes away, that's where we did our grocery shopping. Overall, we had a positive experience staying at this lovely apartment.

Great location, great introduction to Italy

My husband and I rented this flat for our first accommodation in an almost three-week trip in Italy and found its location to be excellent--within walking distance of restaurants, markets, and many sights. It was furnished as advertised--no unpleasant surprises. Although the kitchen is small, it served our purposes for simple breakfasts; with its pots, pans, and utensils, it could be used for more expansive meals. One caution: an arched ceiling at the bedroom entrance at about 5' 10" necessitated my 6'2" husband's "ducking" to enter and exit the room (he adjusted quickly and found it to be part of the charm of the flat). We were greeted upon our arrival early on a Sunday morning by an owner's representative, who was pleasant and informative--a nice introduction to the flat and Rome. We thoroughly enjoyed our four nights here and recommend it!
