1. Staying at Clara's place was great, more than great.
2. We stayed there for 30 days, "We" means two adults and two small children, one of which is a baby (and anyone who has kids knows that it is not easy to find a good place for kids).
3. The place is just 2 minutes' walk from Piazza Bologna where is a metro station (shops and other places are just everywhere). This is a genuine Italian neighborhood which is both very young and vibrant as well as close to the center of Rome. Also, just down the street, there is a small neighborhood market (not a supermarket but a real market) that is open until 14:00 which has fresh vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, cheese etc.
4. The apartment is at the back of residential building and is very quiet. It is not very big but it is well designed with plenty of storage space with almost everything one needs (including internet). If something is missing simply talk to Clara (the owner) and she will find a solution immediately.
5. The garden - a huge and beautiful garden (about 20 meters X 20 meters) - just for you - with 4 turtles, a parrot, small fish pond and cats. If you are an animal lover or if you are looking to occupy you kids for hours – this is the place for you. Also, we had many meals in the garden, saving us the trouble of cleaning after the younger kid (who usually throws everything on the floor…)
6. The host – Clara is a very warm person who truly enjoyed having us with her and made us feeling at home immediately and will assist you with everything you need, whether regarding the house or getting around Rome. Also, she speaks good English which is not too common in Rome.
