Sara's apartment is perfect if you want a real, authentic experience staying in Rome. I like to feel like a local in a new city, and I prefer not to stay in very touristy areas like the city centre near the Coliseum and Vatican City, however, you are only about a 15-20 min Uber or 25-min bus ride (considering traffic) into the heart of Rome and all the attractions. Pigneto is a great up-and-coming neighborhood with great restaurants, coffee shops and gelaterias on every corner. The super market is 1 block down the road as well. My mother and I stayed here and it is perfect for 2 people, with the loft area making the apartment very spacious. We had breakfast in the private patio which was very nice. The only minor downside is the shower is in fact rather small, so I wouldn't recommend if you are not a smaller-set person. Other than that tiny detail, Sara is a great and super responsive and accommodating host, messaging me back right away and even letting me come to the house early to drop off my bags before she cleaned because my flight landed very early in the morning. When I come back to Rome (which I definitely plan on doing) I would stay at Sara's apartment again!
