The apartment is a bit dated but this is easily compensated for by the great location and the size of the indoor and outdoor space (it has balconies and a roof terrace). It is within walking distance of the main rail/bus station and many of the main sights. There are good restaurants, grocery stores, a variety of independent shops and a metro station on Via Urbana. Lots of stairs up to the apartment but there is a lift if you can’t manage them after a long day sightseeing in beautiful Rome.
