My boyfriend and I stayed at Gaia’s place for 2 nights at the very beginning of our trip. Overall, it was good. Very close to everything. We arrived to Rome very late on a Friday night and it was our first time in Italy. We rented a car at the airport and had some difficulties with the gps. Gaia’s sister was very nice and waited patiently for us while we made our way from the airport. There is a convenient mini market just two blocks from the apartment which was open 24 hours. This was especially helpful when we needed to grab a snack after coming in to Rome very late at night. We walked a lot while staying in the area (went to the Colosseum and Vatican which were both walkable if you don’t mind it). The weather was also very nice both days which made it easier to make the trek to the local attractions.
