Apartment was a perfect location for my 1st visit to Rome. Plenty of local business to shop at and restaurants as soon as you walk out the front door. The apartment is on the 3rd floor and you will feel the climb. But I guess that's why I work out. Nice size apartment for a couple and a small child IMO. Loft bedroom works for young kids under 5'5. Windows and ceilings give you that authentic classic Italian vibe. Colosium is a 10 minute walk and a number of other attractions as well. I would definitely recommend it.
