This is a great location to explore Rome! The metro is really close and easy to use. Even if you don't want to go far, there is a beautiful park just down the road which also leads you to the old appian way. There are also some great places for food nearby. We especially enjoyed Pizzeria Cocco where they cook the pizzas in a wood fired pizza oven! The food is great and the prices are good. The apartment is clean, has basic cooking facilities and the bed is comfy. It's a little worn but we would recommend it.
