Pigna is the name of rione IX of Rome, located in Municipio I of the city. The name means "pine cone" in Italian, and the symbol for the rione is the colossal bronze pine cone, the Pigna.
The giant bronze pine cone (Pigna) once decorated a fountain in Ancient Rome next to a vast Temple of Isis. There water flowed copiously from the top of the pinecone.
History

The Pigna was moved first to the Old Basilica of Saint Peter, where Dante saw it and employed it in the Divina Commedia as a simile for the giant proportions of the face of Nimrod.
In the 15th century it was moved to its current location, the upper end of Bramante's Cortile del Belvedere, which is now usually called in its honour the Cortile della Pigna, linking the Vatican and the Palazzo del Belvedere. There it stands today under Pirro Ligorio's vast niche at the far end, flanked by a pair of Roman bronze peacocks brought from Hadrian's mausoleum, the Castel Sant'Angelo.

The price includes:
Fitted sheets, towels, electricity and gas.

Rome
Our host was not there when we arrived. But after contacting her, she opened the door remotely and sent a video to how to access the apartment. The apartment was clean, but very small for a party of four. But we knew that going in we made the most of it and it worked out very well. Loved the location. Everything was within easy walking distance. Give us a great opportunity to see Central with no problems.

Comfy stay close to Pantheon and Trevi Fountain
This was our first time in Rome. Neri met us to take luggage to store until check in and directed us to a very nice restaurant steps away. The bed is comfortable and the Nespresso machine for morning espresso is a fun touch! The hosts were very communicative. A lovely stay in Roma!

Cozy apartment close to everything
We stayed one week. The bed was comfortable and the a/c worked well in the bedroom as it was in the 90’s the week we were there. The apartment is a short walk to the Pantheon. There are several close grocery stores. We didn’t cook but had breakfast and wine and cheese in the apartment. The kitchen is in a cabinet so not too much room but fine for our needs. There are a lot of good restaurants nearby.

Amazing stay in Rome's Historic Center
I LOVED my stay at the Raffaello Inn during the first week of June. The front of the building, with its flowering ivy, looks like something from a fairy tale. The apartment in the 500-year-old building is comfortable, clean, and charming! Mariano greeted me when I arrived and gave me a thorough tour of the apartment, as well as tips on where to eat in the neighborhood. He was so friendly, funny, and welcoming! This location is fantastic—right near all the top sights. The next street over, there is a supermarket. I was able to save so much by getting a few groceries in and eating a few meals at "home," a cafe within a two-minute walk.

Serenity in the City
The Raffello Inn is a charmingly decorated apartment in the perfect location. We could easily walk to the Pantheon, Spanish Steps, St. Peter’s and Trvi Fountain. Our hostess Neri was very gracious and responsive to our needs. She arranged a driver to take us to the airport after 4 glorious days in a well-appointed , quiet air-conditioned apartment. I will definitely recommend to family and friends staying in Rome.

FANTASTIC!
Great place right in the heart of historic Rome! Everything within close walking distance, Apartment was clean, cute and historic with all sorts of amenities (fridge, microwave, fancy coffee/espresso maker, clothes washing machine, etc.). Mariano and Neri were wonderful hosts - very gracious and welcoming, providing their cell phone to text them for anything that we need and giving us all sorts of great tips for the area.

Great central location in Rome
The owners met us at the apartment and went through how all the appliances and everything in the apartment worked. Great personal touch and fantastic people. They checked up on us to make sure everything was okay with the apartment during our stay. The location is incredible! Centrally located with great restaurants just a short walk away. I would highly recommend the place and would be very happy to stay there again! Thanks Mariano and Neri!

Perfect location!
My colleague and I loved this location. We are both retired and able to walk virtually everywhere we hoped to visit. The Colliseum, the Forum, St Peter's, Castel St. Angelo, Trevi Fountain, Piazza Navona, the Pantheon. The apartment was clean and well-appointed. Mariano could not have been more accommodating and responsive - from arranging car service from the airport to explaining the operation of the expresso machine. I definitely would stay here again and recommend it to friends

Great place to stay!
The apartment itself was clean and cozy, and was perfect for our family of 4 (2 young teens). It had everything we needed (they have really thought of everything you might need - down to things like a lint brush!), and Mariano was extremely helpful in getting us checked in, getting information about the apartment and the surroundings. Mariano organized the transfers to and from the airport for us (he took us to the airport himself), which was very helpful and made the check-in easy and seamless. The neighborhood is safe, and we were very close to several attractions, restaurants, etc. We loved staying here, and would definitely stay here again. Thanks Mariano and Neri for an awesome stay in Roma!!

Incredible time
Couldn’t have asked for a more hospitable and accommodating couple Mariano and Neri to be our host. This place had so much charm, was comfortable and was centrally located to everything. We will stay here again for sure. Mariano is the nicest man and was very patient with all of our questions. Also the apartment felt incredible secure and safe with a dead bolt system and safe in the apartment. Can’t say enough good things about this place. Stay here if you can. Thanks Mariano

Central, clean, cozy and comfortable apartment
We felt so lucky staying in this apartment a week. Everything was in order and the hosts were friendly and service-minded. We enjoyed a nice cup of coffee from the espresso machine every morning. Just around the corner we found the most adoring chocolate shop, with homemade treats. We can highly recommend the crocante latte chocolate from Morindo e Gariglio. When returning to Rome, we will for sure book this apartment again. Thank you for having us! The norwegian couple

Wonderful Apartment in the Heart of Rome
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this wonderful property. Our host, Mariano, started communicating with us several days before we arrived to make sure we were all set for the stay. He met us at the property and gave us a detailed explanation of everything we needed to know for the property and the general area of the city. The apartment was clean and well-stocked with everything we needed for our 3 day stay and was a nice size for our family of 3. It’s located on a quaint street just a 5-10 minute walk from the Pantheon. We also were able to walk to the Colosseum, Spanish Steps, Campo de Fiori, Piazza Navona, Trastevere, and the Vatican. We didn’t use public transportation, but walked by both taxi stands and bus stops close to the apartment. There’s a supermarket conveniently located less than a block away and too many good restaurants and cafes to count in the area. The surrounding area was safe to explore and lively both during the day and in the evening. We would recommend the apartment to anyone traveling to Rome.
