My son and I enjoyed very much staying at Costanza's place in Monti. Monti is a great neighborhood with many good restaurant choices that are not touristy. From Monti, the ancient sites are at your doorstep and a great deal more is in walking distance.
Costanza is an outstanding host with fantastic guidance on places to go (for wine, pasta, gelato, sites and more) both in the neighborhood and elsewhere in Rome. We very much appreciate her help in arranging airport transportation which made our life easier. I would happily stay with Costanza again if ever returning to Rome.
