We can definitely recommend a stay at Antonia’s apartment when visiting Rome. We stayed here for 5 nights with our two 13 and 14 y old daughters in mid-August and while it was certainly lively in the evenings (and temperatures very high), the windows shut out the street noise and the AC and fans kept us cool. When the power cut out once, Antonia was able to help immediately. The apartment is certainly located in the best part of town in terms of restaurants and being able to buy water and essentials late at night (we arrived after 9.00pm). It is lively and there are a lot of young people around but also many families with kids and we always felt safe. The walk to interesting sights will be 20 - 30 minutes which can be tough in the heat but taxis are available near the apartment (2 min walk) and cost us between EUR 10 to EUR 15 to get us to some of the most important sights.
