Description Horseback: Roma

This apartment is in an ideal location for culture vultures. It’s a fifteen-minute walk to the myriad museums and galleries of the Vatican and five minutes to the ancient Castel Sant’Angelo. The streets around buzz with local trattoria and pizzerias and, after sunset, the wine bars chatter to life. With all that activity on your doorstep, you’ll want a soothing haven to return to, and this pristine white apartment is exactly that. Pot plants, tapestry art and a raw wood dining table are natural accents against the otherwise pure white motif and built-in bookshelves show off a precise collection of global trinkets. Long, typically Roman windows flood the place with sunlight making it a joy to wake up and enjoy another day in the Italian capital.

Home truths:
*The third bedroom is quite small, and doesn't have any storage space or bedside tables
*Eight guests would be a lot, given the size of the communal areas and the two bathrooms
*There's a small balcony but it's not furnished with any seating
*Guests 7 and 8 would be on a sofa bed in the living room
