The apartment was fantastic. The whole place was very clean and looked just like the photos. Ivan and his wife were quite welcoming and very responsive to our needs. We also really liked the neighborhood and found some great local restaurants. I felt like it provided an authentic view of Rome without all of the tourist trappings. The apartment is also just around the corner from Metro Line A that goes into the heart of Rome and all the way out to the Vatican. Using the Metro line you can get to the Trevi Fountain neighborhood in about 15 minutes and to the Vatican in about 25. We would definitely stay here again!

A few local recommendations:
-1 block East is the Bar/Cafe Pompi that has excellent Tiramasu, great for a late night dessert and also breakfast :).
-Right before the entrance to the nearest metro stop there is a tiny shop that sells Metro tickets, you can get an espresso at the bar there for less than a Euro before you hop on the train.
-2 blocks west is Caffè Valentini di Felli. Stop in there for Apertivo (pre dinner drinks around 5 or 6pm), they bring out free snacks when you buy a drink and you can sit outside and watch the city.
-About 3 blocks west is Teverna Recina. Great for a sit down dinner and there were alot of gluten free options as well.
