My friend and I had a great stay in Stefano's appartment. It has everything you need and you really feel at ease. It's Stefania who welcomed us (as we were supposed to arrive earlier, but had a strike in Roma this day). She was very nice, and spoke french. She showed us the appartment and even gave me a few tips for Rome.
We were suppose to leave the appartment on sunday in the morning, but our plane was at 8pm, for more convienience for us we were allowed to let our suitcase in the appartment for the day as it wasn't booked for the evening, so it was easier to enjoy the city without all our stuff !
The area is very nice you're pretty close from everything, you even have a "marché" on the sunday a few street away. If you want to leave the Dolce Vita, just go for it !
