Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Despite the name, Vintage Alba is actually very new – it’s just been done up in a beautiful mid-century style. It’s in an old building, so there’s not as much natural light, but that feels like nitpicking. It won’t bother you when you’re soaking in that bathtub. The quality of the windows is very high, which might seem like a strange thing to bring up, but the street outside is very busy (as all of Prati is), and while you might still get some noise, the flat’s far more peaceful than it might otherwise be.

About Vatican
It's not always clear when places become popular tourist destinations. However, with the Vatican City, we know the exact date – 67AD when the apostle St Peter was martyred at the foot of the Vatican Hill and buried nearby. Over the next 2000 years, his modest tomb would evolve into St Peter's Basilica, the centre of the Catholic Church and one of the most visited spots in Rome. The Vatican...
