The location was wonderful! I've been to Rome twice now and each time I have stayed in the Pigneto area, it is a very charming artistic neighborhood. If you are looking to be next to all the main tourist attractions this place is not for you. But from Marlene's place the sights are easily accessible as there are two tram lines and a metro line just 5-7 minutes away. Marlene was very quick to respond to questions and everything went very smoothly. Her apartment is perfect for two people, and the terrace was an added bonus. The place was quiet enough at night and surprisingly very cool despite the heat, we didn't even need to turn on the AC. I would stay here again without hesitating.
