We were lucky to stay in Barbara's apartment for Christmas's holidays and to go straight to the most noticeable point: we had a warm welcome by Barbara's family (which is living on the same floor) and Barbara, who was in a foreign country, was very helpful and managed everything by mail and phone, like the transit from and to the airport. Everything gone right and it allowed us to really enjoy our stay in Rome. The apartment itself is very well located between Vatican and downtown in a nice typical and quite area. Close to St. Peter with the legions of tourists (us included :-) ) but jet few streets behind the main avenue and so it was not noisy. I really enjoyed the access to the roof with the view on St Peter Basilic. The apartment is small (not a surprise, it is in the title) but charming and perfect for a couple. It was a perfect refuge after a day of walking in Roma with every facilities to cook and have a rest. The only inconvenient I can see is that the apartment is on the 4th floor and you'll have to go by stairs so it could be a problem for some people (but the recompense is the view from the roof!). My conclusion: small, charming apartment well located and with a very friendly welcome. Highly recommended!
