Description Soft Shading: Roma

Before we even arrived at Soft Shading, we were struck by the location. It’s so close to the Trevi fountain that the only danger is you’ll end up stuck among all the tourists. It’s very new inside, and the modern fittings contrast nicely with some of the original structural features, like the ceilings. The only drawback is the slightly inadequate living room, upstairs, and without space for a full house, but as it’s right in the middle of the city, you won’t be spending much time in.

Home truths:
*There's no real living room, certainly not one that can hold nine people
*The dining table is only big enough for four people
*The shower in the third bedroom is only 190cm high – tall guests might have to duck a little
*One guest will have to sleep on a sofa bed
*There are a total of 17 steps from the street level to the actual entrance of the property
