The apartment is beautiful, especially the ceiling! Carolina's friend Giorgio met us at the apartment and gave us some good tips about the area and answered any questions we had and Carolina was helpful in helping us make our way to the apartment from the airport. The apartment felt very safe with a good lock on both the main door to the building and the apartment itself. There is an abundance of restaurants varying in price surrounding the apartment, there is also a helpful 24/7 small supermarket just round the corner. All of the major sights were within walking distance (even the Vatican if you plan your day well) and the walk into the centre of the city is lovely, especially passing the colosseum in the evening! However, if you do need to use local transport there are numerous bus stops and a metro station within a very short walk. Easily accessible from the airports as the Metro line B runs from the Central Station to right near the apartment.
