Four of us stayed in Marzia’s apartment for six days, and we could not have been happier! As other reviewers indicated, it feels more spacious than it looks in the photos, the many paintings remind you of where you are, while the appliances are more modern and effective than in any of the many places I have stayed at in Italy, especially the shower, washer/dryer, and air conditioning (though have Claudio explain it to you if you are not familiar with Italian AC remotes!). Location was perfect for us, half way between Colosseum and San Giovanni Laterano, so good access to public transport, close to tourist sites but still in a residential area, and the street is quiet at night. Breakfast was at Cafe Ristor nearby, and lunch was roast pork sandwiches at Pane e Vino a few minutes down the road toward the Colosseum. Lots of great restaurants and bars in this area. Communication with hosts and checkin were easy, beds were comfortable, as were the two couches in the living room. I am definitely glad we spent a few extra euros on an apartment that combines Italian charm with American-standard creature comforts,
