This property was of excellent value. The location is unbeatable for anyone who will be visiting the Colosseum, Forum, Palatine hill, or Campidoglio museums; the windows of the property look directly at the Roman ruins and preserved buildings of Trajan's market immediately adjacent to the Forum - very atmospheric. The host is gracious and efficient: she was waiting for us outside the front door of the property when we arrived. The property is appropriately represented on the website: there is sufficent bed space for 3 couples if necessary, and the kitchen and bathroom leave nothing to be desired. A surprising and very convenient aspect was that the kitchen was essentially fully stocked with a supply of beverages and basic foods at the time of arrival; the bathroom is also fully stocked with all the necessities, as well as special touches such as perfume and cologne samples. The restaurant on the ground floor of the adjacent building is also pleasant, of good quality and inexpensive: very convenient after a long day of sightseeing.

My only precaution is that Piazza Grillo is a narrow but busy urban street with a cobblestoned surface. I found the road noise in the mornings and evenings such that I preferred to keep the windows closed and use the air conditioning when trying to sleep. Each bedroom has its own fully functioning air conditioning, so I did not find this an inconvenience.

All considered, this is a great place to stay if you are going to be spending time in the vicinity of the Forum.
