We were greeted warmly by Sara and was given the run down of the area, places to eat, shop and sight-see. Our time in Rome was limited so we really appreciated the local insights! The apartment is in a perfect location surrounded by bars and restaurants (just our thing). It was in a safe neighborhood and there was plenty of things to do in a small radius.

The apartment is also a 20 minute walk to the Vatican and central Rome. We walked to the Colosseum in 30 minutes. Perfect!

The house is above a bar, and the live band does play until 1am, but after a day of walking and sight-seeing, we were too tired to be bothered by it. It's a similar vibe to where we live in NYC, and we thought the neighborhood was fantastic.
