For a traveler who wants walking access to the city, I can't imagine a better location. Located in a quiet medieval alley (as noted in the description), I was able to access dozens of wonderful restaurants, shops and so many of the monuments of Rome. I did not need a taxi or metro one time during my stay; I walked everywhere. As noted, the "nest" is small but I had everything that I needed. Cristiana always responded to questions quickly and with helpful information. I dined only at places that she recommended, many of them "just around the corner" and enjoyed all of the meals. When I return to Rome (this was about my eleventh visit) I will check first to see if Cristiana's place is available. Highly recommended.
