The apartment, especially the balcony, is lovely. It's in a great location - about 50 minute walk to the colosseum or near the metro if you want to use public transport. The person who meets you isn't the owner and has limited English (far better than my Italian though!) So she can give you the basic instructions but anything other than that you have to message about. The main negative was that the water in the shower went from boiling hot to freezing cold quite frequently every time we used the shower. However overall we were happy with our stay and enjoyed the apartment.
