This place is wonderful. We stayed in one of Andrea's other apartments four years ago and knew on our return to Rome that we wanted to repeat what had been a very positive experience. We were not disappointed. The space is clean, well laid out, and Andrea goes a long way toward making the check-in experience smooth and easy. Everything having to do with the apartment is provided in a binder and since Andrea lives in the building, he's available should you need him. The location can't be beat. If you crane your head out the window you can catch a glimpse of the Colosseum right down the street. We had a great dinner at I Clementini and we enjoyed the pizza at Trattoria Luzzi just up the street. There's a nice bar on the corner just below the apartment and two gay owned bars a few doors down. All are great for morning coffee, midday coffee, late afternoon drinks, and of the gay bars - both are very lively well into the night - Coming Out geared more for the under 40 crowd and My Bar for those of us who have a bit more grey in their beards. :)
Note that lively can translate to noisy - but, with the windows closed we did not have to resort to using the thoughtfully supplied earplugs. All in all, this space is very highly recommended. We'll be back!
