This flat is in a "sub" floor apartment, which was nice in the Roman heat. The front door is an ode to the old style of Rome with a very unique key system, which was difficult to figure out at first. When you're locking the door from inside, it is also a bit confusing, but just different from what we were used to. There is air conditioning, which was also huge for Rome in August. Throughout our trip, we had difficulty with service, which made getting in touch with Vania quite difficult and we had trouble properly coordinating with her. When we met Vania, she gave us a pretty firm heads up that there was an area near the apartment to avoid at night as it could be dangerous, which didn't leave a warm and fuzzy feeling off the bat. That said, we were a 20 minute walk to the Coliseum, which was perfect and once we were there, we did not feel any nervousness about the area. Definitely recommend Vania's place, especially at her rate! Thanks, Vania!
