This flat is wonderfully expansive and meets all your needs. We enjoyed the amenities - we were able to do our laundry, cook for ourselves (great grocery store right downstairs), as well as rest in air conditioned bedrooms (beds are more like queen size than double). The balcony is quite large and we used it in the evenings to people watch and enjoy the night air. There are several really great places to eat or get gelato nearby - Osteria del Cavaliere has amazing ribs/truffle gnocchi/tiramisu and Pompi has wonderful desserts. Be aware that the walk to the colosseum is about 45 minutes - we rented scooters to get back and forth and used taxis to get to the Vatican. Fiammetta was so gracious - she even gifted us some wine, spritz, and a few other fun things! She communicated well and pointed us in all the right directions. What a wonderful time in Rome!
