This is a good location for first time visitors to Rome. It was my first stop on a two month long trip through the country. I arrived late and communicated with the owner throughout the journey through the airbnb app. English wasn't great but we were able to decide on a meet up time and he was accommodating my delayed arrival.
The area directly around Roma Termini is sketchy so this is a good compromise in terms of location and convenience. It was very easy to get to my early train at Roma Termini. The apartment is adjacent to a lively piazza - some people have complained that the neighborhood is too loud but to those people I would say...why are you going to bed so early?
