The apartment is very clean and as pictured. The terrace pictured is not off the apartment, but on the fifth floor and shared. It is located in a more residential area, outside of the immediate downtown area where most of the tourist attractions are. It was a 20 euro taxi ride to the apartment from the Rome Termini station. It is less than a 30 minute walk to the Vatican Museum from the apartment. We took a taxi instead of walking and it was around 10 euro. There are a lot of restaurants and shops nearby.
The host was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions we had. We had a very nice stay.
