Marlène's cozy nest was a wonderful place to stay in Rome! We loved the central location - being close to Campo de' Fiori and the Pantheon and not that far from Piazza Venezia/Forum area. The apartment itself was just as described. It was very neat, clean, and equipped with all the essentials. It's definitely a small place, but it had everything we needed. We mostly ate out, but did cook a bit and found the kitchen nice to use. I was surprised by how quiet the apartment was - my friend from Rome warned me that the neighborhood might be loud, but we never had any noise problems. We visited during a cold week, but stayed nice and warm inside - the heater does a nice job of keeping the insides toasty.

Marlène was very nice to work with. She arranged a cab from the airport and met us at the apartment, gave us some tips about the neighborhood, and although we didn't need it, gave us a cell phone to use for local calls. I would definitely recommend staying at her apartment!
