We were delighted with Andrea's accommodation. The living area was spacious and cool, even without the aircon but the aircon was great when coming home after a long, hot day. Shower stall is a bit small, so anyone oversize might struggle but we loved the apartment.
We found lots of places to eat & drink nearby. There are also some night spots in the street below, which ran later into the night but didn't bother us at all.
We walked lots of places, even back from the Vatican, which (despite the heat) was a great way of seeing more of Rome.
The taxi rank around the corner was convenient too.
We didn't meet Andrea but he kept in contact with us and helped us a number of times with our queries.
