We loved the apartment. Luca arranged for our pick up from the airport. There was a bottle of wine and strawberries waiting for us at the apartment. Apartment is just across the street from Colosseum. My family and I felt very safe and went out late at night without any problems. There are many tourists around since it's proximity to Colosseum. There is a metro station by Colosseum. A 5 min walk from the apartment. We took it a few times to Termini Centrale, two stops away, to catch trains to Venice and Pompei. There is a small market around the corner from the apartment. You can purchase all your basics there. We didn't cook at the apartment but if anybody wants to, there is a fully equipped kitchen. A block away we came across a wonderful little restaurant serving amazingly good Italian food. We loved it so much that we went there few times! Overall the apartment served it's purpose of being a base for our exploration of Rome. I read some reviews and people complaining. If you want luxury, you can find it by spending more money on a different place. We loved the central location and it was perfect for us! I would recommend it to my friends. If I ever go back to Rome, I would choose it again!
