Sophisticated "Bellina" apartment on a picturesque small street near Rome’s world-famous Spanish Steps. 
The Bellina Roma apartment has one bedroom that is accessed from the the living room through an open doorway. The apartment has been completely remodeled with sleek new kitchen, bathroom, and high quality comfortable furniture.

Location
The apartment is in the sought-after Spanish Steps, Piazza del Popolo, Via del Corso "trident" area on a narrow street lined with low-rise apartment buildings dating from the 1700’s. Ground-floor businesses include a few fashion boutiques, a pizzeria, snack bar and a small traditional grocery store. Elegant cafés, restaurants, antique dealers, designer shops are just minutes from your doorstep. Our Rome clients repeatedly ask for this neighborhood because it is so central, safe and upscale. The Spagna metro (subway) station is a five-minute walk away. Nearby Piazzale Flaminio has both a metro station and stops for multiple bus lines. Rome's little electric bus stops on Via del Corso, steps away. The famed sites of Rome, including the Trevi Fountain, Piazza Navona, Pantheon, Via Veneto are a comfortable and interesting 15-to-20 minute walk.

Building
The small apartment building dating from the 1700’s has an elevator up six-steps from the entrance. Clay pots with colorful flowers mounted on the buildings add to the charm. The one-way, narrow street is cobblestone-paved and runs between Via del Corso and Via del Babuino. Two blocks away is Via Margutta, made famous in the movie "Roman Holiday" being where Cary Grant’s character lived. The apartment is located on the second floor (American designation) and features two large living room windows overlooking the street. Building has elevator.

Bellina is a delightful apartment.  Our opinion:
• Excellent location.

• Clean and comfy with the twin sofas.
• Quality apartment, luxury class.
