I had a really great experience staying at the apartment.
The place was spacious, with a tidy, minimalist look that was beautiful in its simplicity. My room had a large, queen-sized bed with large shelves and a closet. However, there's no table though so you have to do your work outside in the kitchen or living room.
The living room was grand, complete with a great sound system, projector, and blu-ray player; Plenty of room to have a lot of friends over.
The kitchen was also spacious well equipped with all the pots, pans and dishes you'd need for all your home cooking. There's a stove top, microwave, sink, dishwasher, refrigerator/freezer and a pantry to keep all of your food.
There is also a clothes washer and a board for clothes to dry.
Gloria was a very nice and thoughtful host. Her English is very good, she carefully and thoughtfully wrote up instructions on how to live in the apartment and is more than willing to help you if needed.
Outside, there's a nice baguette place run by friendly couple, great and affordable Italian restaurants nearby, grocery stores, electronic stores and convenience stores and within walking distance to Villa Borghese, a lovely with museums steeped Rome's deep history.
However, the apartment is a bit far from the metro and the buses that I normally rode on was always had an inconsistant stop time. It was either ten minutes early, or ten minutes late. You can access a website to track the bus at

Minor quibbling aside, I had a great experience with the apartment and would definitely recommend it to anybody interested in staying in Rome.
