I am an international student studying and living in Italy. I decided to travel to Rome by myself for a weekend to visit the historic landmarks of the city, and so I stayed in this Apartment for 2 nights.
The apartment is located in a fairly lively neighbourhood, with many restaurants and bars, and also a supermarket, tabacheria etc nearby. However, I encountered no problems with noise during my stay. The apartment overlooks a small courtyard with some seats and tables - this is perfect for enjoying the morning sun with a coffee.
It is possible to walk from the apartment into the historic city centre, although it takes about 40 minutes. However, there is a Metro station very near to the apartment, and so you can easily take a train to the Basilica of San Giovanni in Laterno, and from there it is a 15 minute walk to the Colosseum, Roman Forum etc.
I had no complaints with the apartment - it was extremely clean and tidy, the bed was comfortable and the WiFi worked perfectly. Also there was some useful supplies left in the cupboard, such as coffee, olive oil etc.
Lorenzo was an excellent host. He allowed me to check in early, and both the check in and check out procedures were extremely quick and easy. He also emailed me during my stay to check that everything was okay with the apartment.
Overall, I would definitely stay here again. The apartment is perfect for anyone visiting Rome for a few days, as long as you are not concerned with being based directly in the city centre.
