Just got back from a lovely week at Elena's place in Rome. The flat was clean, tidy and how it was described and we were greeted personally when we arrived. The flat is very close to two metro stations - Manzoni and Vittorio Emanuele which is great for exploring the tourist attractions (FYI the metro is €25 for the week for unlimited travel). Coming home to the flat after a tiring day was perfect: chilling on the terrace having some food from the kitchen with a glass of wine (supermarket 30 secs from front door) or alternatively watching the TV which was provided in the flat. In addition, the wifi provided was excellent.
We would definitely recommend Elena's place if you are considering a visit to Rome!
