First, communication with the host was excellent. Her friendly and punctual assistant, Giorgio, met us at the flat and checked us in as well as out. The linens were clean, the kitchen had what we needed, and the showers worked consistently and bathrooms were nice.

Second, the location is fantastic. We spent almost a week in the city and I could not think of a better one. Great street. Lots of little restaurants that are good. Perfect proximity to the Vatican, Piazza Navona, the Pantheon, the Colleseum; in short, everywhere you might want to go this is centrally located but in a great location. The only thing I'd warn is that it's not very close to a metro stop. I didn't really want to be close to a metro stop so worked well for us. Close by taxis and hundreds of shops and restaurants plus walking distance of all the major attractions was just perfect. If you are a light sleeper it can be a little loud from time to time, but that's the city for you.

The pictures are accurate but make the flat look a little bigger and newer than it is; some of the furniture is quite nice and some is very worn down. Clearly you are paying for the location with the owner's rate, not for a fancier place to stay. Overall we would definitely stay here again.
