We are seasoned travelers to Rome and this apartment is perhaps the best "bang for your buck" in all the of city. Andrea is THE most responsive, organized, and helpful host we have ever had. Self-check in was a breeze with his detailed directions. His detailed guide directs you to places in the neighborhood (Celio), including a grocery store 2 min away. The apartment was clean and sparse. Pictures are representative of the place, save for the balcony was a bit tighter than I envisioned (but doable for 2). One should note that the apartment walls are a bit thin and there is noise on the street at night. The bedroom is very quiet because it is on the courtyard side, but I wouldn't sleep someone on the couch in the livingroom if they are sensitive to street noise. The location is just on the edge of the city center, so expect walking or taking the nearby Metro stop. For us, these were minor drawbacks that were MORE than made up for by Andrea, the cleanliness of the apartment, and the price. We would absolutely stay here again.
