To start it qas a great location that isn't touristy (even though we were tourist ha). There were lots of great restaurants nearby and the hosts (Grazia helped us) was always available to answer our questions and give us tips on anything. The City Centre was walkable (about 30 mins) and on route you pass through great areas of Travestere to enjoy cappuccinos, etc. By staying in their apartment you avoid the tourist trap restaurants (high prices) and excessive crowds near the highly desired tourist spots like colliseum, pantheon, etc. There are great coffee shops and restaurants just below the apartment, also the train (no. 8 tram) is close by if you want to take it to the city center without walking. All and all it was a great place and it was a safe, quiet, and local area. We really enjoyed it. Thanks again to Grazia.
