Location, location ,location! Andrea's apartment is just up from the Colosseum and has a view of the gladiator training cell ruins and the park beyond. The apartment is comfortable, simple and clean, has a well equipped kitchen,and is a wonderful base for seeing the sights of Rome. Andrea provided clear, helpful advice on how to get there, and met us at the apartment - checking in and out was smooth and easy. Andrea has a friendly and professional approach; he and his wife live in the building, and he made himself available if needed which gave a welcome sense of security for travellers a long way from home. From other reviews I had expected it to be quite noisy, but found it surprisingly quiet at night - there was a lot of activity on the Friday night we were there, but noise was at an acceptable level and didn't continue into the early hours. Would definitely stay again if I return to Rome.
