Veruska was a wonderful host. She met us for check in and saved a parking spot for us in front of the apartment--we left our car there for our entire stay. She always responded quickly when we had questions or issues. The apartment was spotless when we arrived, and we like the setup for our family with the twin over full bunk. Although it is a basement unit and we kept the shades down for privacy, the inside was bright and cheery. The kitchen is small, but had what we needed to cook a few meals. We managed to squeeze five people around the table. There is a coffee shop and restaurant almost right upstairs, and a grocery store just a few doors down. A 10-20 minute walk will get you to many more coffee shops, delis, pizza shops, restaurants, and a cheap wash and fold laundromat. Our favorites in all Rome were 25 pizzas and Romane restaurant. The Vatican and St. Peter's Basilica were convenient to walk to, and the city center was easily accessible by bus or subway. Great value!
