For a trip where you only need to visit the centre of Rome infrequently, this apartment will serve you well. However, for me, the apartment's location didn't suit visiting the centre of town as it's in a residential district served by infrequent buses and an infrequent commuter line.

The alternative (which I did nearly every day) is to walk into the city. This takes 45 minutes on pavements which are often non-existent and dangerous — not really to be recommended to others!

Once in the apartment, it's difficult to fault much, it's clean, has a reasonably comfortable double sofa bed and a single bed in a separate room. The shower is large and the host was kind enough to leave some basic provisions in the fridge. You do though need to be conservative with the internet however as it's not DSL, but works through a 4G connection.

The host is attentive, for example, coming in to take a look at the internet and prepare another bed after my first night. There was though a concerning moment before my arrival where he suggested I might like to stay at another apartment on account of some guests who wanted to stay on at the place I'd booked. I firmly said 'no' and moved in as planned. Given how attentive he was during the stay, I'm happy to overlook the un professional pre-arrival request.
