You cannot beat the location - a few mins’ walk to the colosseum and 5 mins’ walk to the metro station (we took the metro to Vatican City and used it for a day trip to Ostia Antica). For us, other places of interest (Capitoline hill, Trevi fountain, pantheon) are also within walking distance. The apartment is surrounded by restaurants and many cute bars. We also found a lovely bakery close to the metro station that we went almost everyday.
The apartment isn’t big, but works well for our family of three. The decor is quite unique - you can tell Maria puts a lot of effort and time making the whole place a comfortable sanctuary in the center of and Rome.
Maria has been SUPER responsive, from the moment we booked the place. She helped arranged transportation from the airport and we were welcomed by a complimentary bottle of wine. She shared with us a helpful list of good local restaurants and she always quickly texted back whenever we had any questions.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and recommend it if you want to find a nice place to stay close to the Colosseum.
