The apartment is fabulously situated for a truly Roman view of the Colosseum.
We were tourists and out and about all the time. A great base in lovely surroundings. Wonderful local neighbourhood restaurants with a good balance of tourists and locals in walking distance and easy to get to all areas of Rome (taxi rank just outside and walkable to lots of areas too). I felt safe and travelled with my family, including a four year old and broad age range - apartment was fine for mobility and a well behaved child! There is an excellent supermarket over the road too for snacks etc.
The hosts literally get back to you within seconds regarding queries, very helpful. What a city.
