Tatiana's apartment is great, especially the nice balcony area. We appreciated that everything was clean and appeared as it did in the photos. It was also great to have plenty of towels and extra blankets. We were able to cook meals in the tiny but efficient hideaway kitchen. The building itself has secure entry and we felt safe once inside, but the neighborhood is rough around the edges. We were glad there were four of us ladies when walking around at night. There is public transportation to get to the center of Rome and it is fairly quick once you figure it out, but it seemed like the tram and metro were always packed to the gills. I would also recommend setting up a taxi to get to the airport a day or two in advance. We tried to do it the night before we needed it and had issues with my phone reaching Italian numbers (of course that hadn't happened the rest of the trip) so we had to walk about 6 blocks and catch a night bus to the station at 2am - don't leave it until the last evening like us! Other than that we enjoyed the apartment very much.
