Lavinia's place was a great stay for us. The location is a bit outside the tourist zone, but the #8 tram is only 5min away and it goes right to Piazza Venezia. The value for money is hard to beat and one of the best gelaterias (Gusta) we've been to is only a few minutes away. Lavinia is very friendly and met us personally to let us in. It doesn't look like it in the photos, but the bedroom and bathroom (and connecting space) are all private. So you do have your own private mini-apartment.
