Vera's place had a great location and was in a nice quiet local part of Rome. Multiple trams and buses along with the nearby subway took you to all the sites. Yet everything was also very walk-able. The apartment was clean and faced a quiet courtyard in an older building. Had everything we needed for our couple day stay in Rome. The beds where comfortable. The coffee shop/bakery next door is a great place to drink coffee and start the day. The testaccio market is just a 10 minute walk and has several great food vendors where you can buy an affordable lunch. Trappazino just down the road makes one of the most perfect sandwiches you will have in Italy.
