Via del Corso Apartments in Rome - Carlo 

The Carlo apartment overlooks a lovely internal courtyard. It is quiet and gracious.

The Carlo apartment overlooks a lovely internal courtyard that provides quiet and light. Entrance is not, however, through this courtyard but through a side entrance for the building. 

This is a long apartment with the rooms one after the other, kitchen, dining, living room, small bedroom and, through it, the master bedroom. The bathroom is tucked behind the kitchen. There are four large windows along one side that let in lots of light.

The bright  living/dining room area is spacious. The table is quite large, seating six. A small table holds the television. A large, antique hutch stores the dishes and has lots of room for keeping the things you need. The L-shaped sofa is super comfortable. An antique folding chair adds seating and interest. Two large windows overlook the internal court with its fountain and cloister. Between the windows is a marble console with a painting above it.

The kitchenette is modern with a four burner stove top, small refrigerator with freezer shelf for ice, sink, and dishwasher. The pots, pans, knives, and utensils are of good quality and lack for nothing. 

The master bedroom has a queen sized bed, bedside tables with reading lamps and a side chair. An armoire stores your clothing. 

The second bedroom has a bureau, wall cupboard, nested tables, two lamps and a twin bed that converts into two twins or a queen. In the photo, the second bed is shown at trundle height, but it also pops up to the same height as the first bed. If you are interested in this clever Italian system, the second bed part slides out from underneath, then you simply lift it and the legs drop down putting it at the same height as the original bed. You can align the beds as two halves of a queen and make them up that way, or separate them. Not that you need to worry about that, we will have them made up to fit your party.

The bathroom is decorated with coral tiles. The large shower had an ample water heater so you may take reasonable length showers.

All the radiators have been removed, so the heating, if needed, is via electric radiators which work wonderfully well. The only caution would be keeping toddlers away from the radiators.

We have thoroughly inspected this apartment and our frank evaluation is:

• We tested the beds that slide out and found them just as comfortable as the others.

• Very little traffic noise penetrates to this internal apartment.

• Linens are luxurious and include a terry bathrobe.

• Storage for clothing is a bit limited.

• The master bedroom is accessed through the smaller bedroom, so this apartment is more suited to families than three or four adults.
