Rita and her husband were extremely helpful and accommodating. Having them pick us up from the airport was by far the most convenient and cheapest. They were helpful with questions about the area. The location is perfect! Central to everything and I walked to the Collosseum and to the Pantheon, as well as several other sites. Just across the bridge (about a 2 minute walk) is the Trastavere area that is very fun to walk around with shops and cafes galore. The bed was very comfortable and after my 15 hours of flying, I was very happy to have a comfy place to sleep with AC. Even though the apartment is in central Rome, it is quiet. The only downside was it is on the 4th floor and there is no elevator. I traveled light so it was no problem, but my travel companion found it difficult. It was very quaint and well worth the value!
