We stayed at Ivan's house for 6 days, Ivan took the time and showd us the nighburhood and all the places around and was very helpful.

The appartment is very nice and cozy and well taken care off.
note that this is a half bament appartment and you go down the stairs to get there, you also get a nice patio right out of the door.
The nighborhood seems to be multicultural, young and vibrent with good portions of pubs and resterunts around and the pubs works till late night.

There are busses and trains stations to the main attractions preety close but Rome public transport is crowded and slow, so getting there might be unconffort.

Its a very nice place that you can feel like at home there.
