The location of the flat is marvelous. Steps away from the Forum and Capital, it is as quiet and picturesque as it appears. A perfect area from which to explore a combination of ancient and christian Rome.

The flat has 2 rooms with the bathroom being en-suite in the bedroom, so if you're using the second room to sleep in the party needs to be family or very familiar. We were 2 adults and a child and it fitted our needs perfectly.

The one (major) discordant note is that for 4 of the 7 mornings we were woken between 8 and 9 by loud hammering, drilling and electric sawing on the balcony where there is reconstruction work underway. Bizarrely there was no work in the afternoon. Our hosts tried and failed to have this dealt with. In fact the worst morning by far was the final one. To be fair to them, in recompense they provided a free transfer to the airport and kept our bags safe for us as we did a last few hours in the city. There is no doubt that they are attentive and diligent hosts.

Without the noise it would have been great, but honestly we would have gone elsewhere if we had known about it in advance.
