I had a lovely stay at Maria's place and would recommend it to anyone traveling in Rome. Her apartment is located in a fun and busy area of Rome near Piazza Navona. The vibe is a combination of international visitors and locals. There is a great energy to the neighborhood, it's close to so many important Roman sights, and there are art galleries, restaurants, bars, live music, etc. near the apartment. The apartment itself was comfortable (great bed), small but typical bathroom BUT its en-suite so that was fabulous, no breakfast, but she did supply some coffee/tea (although there are so many great spots right outside that it wasn't even needed). Overall, Maria was a great hostess, and I would stay here again.
