The location and industrial vibe of this flat cannot be matched! You are within a 2 mile walk of Vatican City and 1.5 mile walk in the other direction to The Colosseo. The flat is perfect for 1-2 people, however there is a pullout couch for an additional 1-2 people but I would personally feel crowded. I had some issues with the AC and hot water, I called Marida and two maintenance workers were sent over within an hour. Issues were fixed within a reasonable time and Marida was extremely helpful throughout the process! I did not cook, however there is a small two burner hot top with pots and pans available and numerous restaurants surrounding the flat. I did not find many grocers in the area, but I also wasn't looking terribly hard. There is also a washer/dryer combo which was a life safer! There was a strange smell in the flat, I think it was from the bathroom and not having much ventilation. This did not bother me, however I felt it should be noted. The neighborhood was quiet, there was construction occurring during my stay and it started around 0600 daily (lots of jackhammering through concrete). This wasn't too bad for me as I usually wake up and workout around this time. A quick walk up the alley and you're on one of the main shopping streets, this is why I included both quiet and lively in my review. There is an iron gate and another door to the flat, so safety was not a concern for me. I walked everywhere and did not use public transport, however there is a taxi station right around the corner as well as a bus station. You're also a 5-10 minute walk from the original Alfredo king. I would recommend this flat, you are literally in the center of everything!
