We really enjoyed our stay. Marie Christina was responsive to our requests for information. We took the shuttle that she suggested from the airport (at the airport Bus Stop, platform 3), and we were at her flat in a bit over an hour. It was around a 10-15 minute walk to the flat, (less once you know the way). The flat really is near the Vatican, so the area is a bit touristy during the day (probably very much so during the summer). The entrance to the building felt as though it needed a bit of paint, but otherwise everything was very clean and the flat a delight. A mixture of contemporary with some choice bits of old furniture, it was really pretty. There was a welcome sweet pie which was a very nice gesture. The flat is a studio, so not large, and the kitchen area is compact, as is the toilet/shower room. However, at least the shower was a proper space, not a prefab shower with plastic doors! There is a tiny balcony. All rather lovely and quiet. definitely recommend. We loved the area. You can walk to the Prati area easily and there are lots of good restaurants there as well as the more touristy ones nearby. I would recommend this easily. We stayed on the other side of Rome on our way back for one night, and preferred this area. It's quiet at night, and felt safe. I think I would feel safe, in summer at least, as a single traveller. The double bed is large. It might be a bit of a squeeze overall for more than a couple, but with a child this space should work. Remember that if you want to visit the Vatican, it's best to book ahead through an agency. I've never seen such queues, we gave up (and nearly got pick pocketed by a seemingly friendly person asking us about the queues). Lots to see in Rome, we walked everywhere and didn't even use our travel card the second day.
