We really enjoyed this loft during our stay in Rome. We walked to the Coliseum and Trevi Fountain from our place but did take the metro to the Vatican. To get to the loft you did have to go in an alley which was right off the main street. The area is in an up and coming area known as Monti. This location had many restaurants to choose from but was definitely away from the tourist spots. The loft had good A/C ( It was hot while we were there). The bed was more of a futon bed but we were so tired each night from walking that we fell right asleep. TV did not work too well but the internet was great. I would recommend you stay here for your stay in Rome. If you want a good place to eat, choose La Carbanara but get reservations!
