We were pleased with our stay at Claudia’s place. There was plenty of room for our group of seven adults, some related and some not. We were about a 10 minute walk from the coliseum. We were a walking group and even trekked (stopping for brunch along the way) to the Vatican. The taxi (van) ride back was welcome! We found the beds to be a little on the hard side, but we were so ready to sleep at night, it didn’t seem to matter too much. Amenities were a little basic by our previous experiences in the states (no complimentary soap in the bathroom), but there was a hairdryer. I just wish I had realized it before a brought my own! We took a car service from the airport to the apartment (around 70 euros) and were able to walk (about 15 min) to the Termini train station for travel to Florence.
