The Roman Centaur

Centrally located in the eternal city of Rome, this home is a mere stone's throw from several iconic landmarks, including the Ponte Sisto, where you can overlook the Tiber. And some of those sights you might even spot from the balcony, though when it comes to the outdoor seating, we prefer the patio table in the shade of the pergola. As for the home, the rustic charm of the rafters and furnishings is sweet and well-kept. It's worth noting that despite being spacious, this home's sleeping arrangements feature a double sofa bed and another room with two single sofa beds that might be more suitable for children. With two other double beds available, however, it's the ideal pad for a family getaway.

Home truths:
*At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in a bedroom. The third bedroom also has a pull-out sofa bed that can be configured as two single beds.
*Parking in Rome can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.
*The traditional decor here might not be to everyone's taste. It feels a little dated in parts.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a high chair for free – you'll need to request them in advance. Kids might need help on the spiral staircase.
*Hen and stag parties are strictly not allowed at this home.
*If you want to stock up on essentials during your stay, you'll find the closest supermarket minutes away.
