Location! Location! Location! Honestly couldn't have asked for a better area to stay in. All the main Rome attractions were within walking distance (except the Colosseum) and there were restaurants just feet away. The street is actually pretty quiet considering how close it is to the hustle and bustle. We went on a passeggiata to Piazza Navona regularly!
The apartment is a little dated but that doesn't seem to be uncommon in Italy. Also, there isn't much natural light, so at times it felt like a cave, although that helps to keep it cool. The kitchen is tiny, but pretty decently appointed. We cooked a handful of meals.
Riccardo also fully stocked our fridge with water and beverages—it was such a nice gesture. He welcomed us, communicated well, and was really really nice.
