Casa Frisi is a gem in a nice neighborhood
Casa Frisi is one of those vacation apartments that make you feel at home. It appears newly renovated. The furniture and the appliances are new. The kitchen is staffed with large sets of dishes, glasses, and utensils: enough to host a party. It is obvious that the owner made a lot effort to decorate the apartment to make it comfortable. We met the owner once. He showed us around to make sure we had everything we needed. Honestly, we did not expect the apartment to be so pleasant and neat. The apartment has many interesting architectural elements. The arch ceilings are about 14 ft high. All glass windows have window doors to control light, and yarn curtains to protect privacy. It has a desk in every bedroom. The apartment is a 7 minute walk from the Vatican Museum, a 10 minute walk from St. Peter's, and two blocks away from a nearby Metro station. When we stayed here, the fragrant star jasmine in the patio was blooming. One Saturday morning when we were enjoying the fruit on the patio, beautiful music drifted in from a nearby apartment. It sounded like a child was taking a private guitar lesson. The melody and the scene reminded us we were in the city of romance.
The apartment has two bathrooms. There is plenty of hot water for showing. One shower did not drained very well. The other one is great.
After Rome, we visited Florence and Venice. Our 15 year old son could not forget Casa Frisi. "Oh, I wish this was Casa Frisi."he said every time when we walked into an apartment.
