This place was really nice. As described, with all the amenities we needed (including in suite laundry which was a plus with our little one).
Family friendly, the couch serves as a second bed for our little guy (though not a ton of space left when the second bed is pulled out), and only a few stairs to the elevator was nice with the stroller.
Area seemed a little sketchy initially, fair amount of traffic and lots of graffiti around, but found there's lots of pedestrian traffic and walking out in the evenings I never felt uneasy, it's a much nicer area than the walk from the metro station suggests initially.
A few decent places to eat within about a 4 block radius, as well as a couple of grocery stores, a big day market to the northwest, and even some interesting POI's nearby like an ancient Roman fish farm.
Overall, definitely a nice spot if you want to be out of the bustle around the city center but close enough that getting there isn't a chore. PT costs aren't crazy ($1.50 / person for 100 min on the bus or one ride on the metro), so making the trip downtown and back doesn't run a huge bill. Plus it's walking distance to the Roma-Tuscolana station which runs trains to/from the airport (not the Leonardo Express, the regular, less expensive but only slightly slower and just as frequent IC train), and let us avoid the hike thru Roma Termini with all our luggage which was nice.
5-stars.
