This is the perfect area in Rome. There is nightlife and great food (take the advice of Elisabetta and try the local food). It is very close to all the major sites - we walked to everything and only took a bus on the last day to go to the train station.

It's a little like having your own apartment which is good. Elisabetta greeted us and was informative about the area.

There was just a couple of things to say - there is noise at night from the traffic, but you're in the middle of a city, so it is hard to avoid. Beware of the beams in the bathroom - I almost knocked myself out a couple of times getting into the shower and ended up taking baths instead of showers.

Otherwise it was clean and tidy. Well worth it.
