This apt was larger than I had anticipated for the price. The high brick dome ceilings gave a very nice appeal. I'm a hiker so I didn't have trouble getting everywhere by foot but it is out aways and knowing how to catch a bus would have helped. The are conviniences like restraunts and supermarket close but you have to travel quite a ways to get into the Rome core. Communicaion with host was a little slow but the person who I met was helpful and friendly. It felt quite safe and very quiet.
