My husband, 4 month old baby and I stayed at Katya’s place with my parents for our family trip to Rome. The location was great being a bit outside the packed tourist part of town (which is crazy busy), so it was nice to jump on a short bus ride (normally only 10mins) home to a quieter and more authentic neighbourhood. Coliseum and pantheon etc are all walkable too which we would normally do but we opted for buses since to avoid more time in the sun for our young son. It was a really good base for our Rome explorations and in the evening there are lots of different restaurant options for dining in the neighbourhood. We tested several gelato places out here too and they were amazing. Supermarkets and laundry are near by and a market too that we didn’t get time to check out. The beds were comfy and there was a cot provided for my son. It didn’t bother us having the shutters closed as it kept the heat out as we were there during a heatwave. Ceiling fans as well as floor fans also kept us cool. We had no problem with the shower, great pressure and constant hot water. I’d have no hesitation recommending this place.
