Marzia and her husband Fabio were wonderful! They were so exceptionally warm and welcoming and incredibly helpful. Upon arrival from an overnight flight from NY, we were pretty zonked, and they offered us coffee at their home as soon as we arrived. We had Fabio pick us up at the airport for 38 euros, which was totally worth it. They were incredibly knowledgeable and offered loads of tips and suggestions for the Rome area (as well as for other destinations on our Italian trip -- Sicily, Naples, Positano, etc). They directed us to some lovely restaurants, and sightseeing destinations. The accomodations are modest, but we knew that going in and it was really all we needed. Not recommended if you are not comfortable with the person you are traveling with (the shower is clear glass that looks onto the bedroom :). Considering so much of your time in Rome will be spent outside, walking around, this space is really perfect. Oh, and the location! Amazing!! Overlooking the Vatican, super centrally located. Fabio and Marzia were very helpful offering directions, bus routes, train routes, etc. We had no worries or problems whatsoever getting around. There is a very cute and tasty cafe below the apartment. They have a very sweet happy hour where we drank Campari Sprtizes and they put out complimentary food. Yum! Overall, we can't recommend this location enough. The promixity to main attractions, the hopsitality of Marzia and Fabio, all of it was perfect! Oh, and their children are adorable! We would surely stay with them again. :)
