Natalia was a great hostess! We arrived by train quite early & she met us at the flat and allowed us to store our luggage. She also gave us detailed info about all the features of the apartment & allowed us to complete the check-in process early so that we could begin exploring the city. The best feature of Natalia's apartment were the terraces - there were three and & the best view of St. Peter's!! Her place is directly across the street from a train station and bus stop, so that was convenient. You can easily walk to St. Peter's in about 10-15 minutes and there's a grocery store also within walking distance. The building was relatively quiet, but sometimes we could hear neighbors (as you might expect in apartments). There is an old-school, small elevator which is nice, but do take care to close the doors of the elevator properly or risk having a grumpy man ring your bell and tell when you've done it incorrectly. We would definitely stay at Natalia's place again!
