“Purple Plum apartment Rome”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

An extremely comfortable apartment, well placed with thoughtful and helpful owners who made our 4 night stay for four of us very pleasant indeed. Whilst parking is first come first served, we were able to safely park free for our stay as well right outside the door - although once parked we left the car where it was! The bus stops right outside so getting into the centre is easy, and the Vatican and nice restaurants are walking distance - the guide is a great help and Alessandro and Valentina will be adding to this with an excellent map. They are easily contactable for any help while you are there as well. WiFi is available and it is helpful to take a device so you can look at the internet. Provisions are available from the supermarket a few steps up the road. Booking is easy too, and the apartment does represent really good value. We would certainly stay again.

“feels like home!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012

We have stayed at the Purple Home Plum apartment (1 couple and 2 friends ) for 6 days.Everything was perfect.First of all the location was ideal, 50 meters from bus station there is bus No 64 which can take you to Roma termini passing through the city center with many stops.At the next block on the left ,there is big super market and from the other side there is an amazing bakery with tasting Italian breakfast and many other cafeterias.The Vatican is very close ,approximately 15 minutes light walking and about 20-25 minutes from Trastevere ,a MUST SEE location!!!(The best restaurant that we visited 3 times in our stay was DA GILDO highly recommended!!!
As for the rooms we also see all the other apartments Violet and Blush and was exactly as shown in the site and the Violet was Perfect.Finally we want to thank the kind owners for being kind and friendly and very helpful!For close up ,Purple Home is our first choice for our next trip to Rome!!

Room Tip: if you are 2 couples or a couple with friends we recommend the Plum apartment which has 2 separate...

“Great value for families”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2012

We were 5 adults staying at the Plum apartment last december. We were very confortable and the apartment was very well equipped and clean. The location is perfect, 5 minute walk to the Vatican City on a very secure and quiet street and the bus stop is very close. All this for an excellent price! The only thing that needs improvement: the showers are small.

“Perfect location and great value”

person found this review helpful

I have stayed at the Purple Home for 3 nights with 2 more people and the place was perfect for us. Very good location, just 5 min walking from the vatican, the bus stop is also very close to the building and the bus 64 takes you to Roma termini passing through the city center.
The apartment is spacious and beutifully decorated. Although the building is old, the apartment is completely refurbished.Alessandro is a great host and gives you valuable tips.
