Irina is a fabulous host, she made sure we always had everything we needed. The apartment is perfect for budget traveling to Rome, especially for larger families or groups. The location is clean, quiet and about a 30 minute stroll to the Trevi Fountain and 40 minutes to the Colosseum ( with younger children). Cabs and public transportation are easily accessible as well. The option of having meals in her pub a few blocks away, at a discount, is also a plus. There are plenty of options for restaurants and gelato all around the apartment as well.
