I had already been in Rome once before, I knew the city and was looking for something close to Vatican City and Lina's place was perfect. It's about 7 minutes walking distance to the Vatican Museum entrance and about 12 minutes to St. Peter's Basilica. Metro stop (Cipro) nearby and a 24hr Carrefour market about 5 minutes walking distance. Many restaurants nearby (specifically a Mexican restaurant, which we frequented often).
Lina contacted us to inquiry about our travel needs while in Rome and offered suggestions, she arranged transportation from and to the airport for us which worked out to be MUCH cheaper than a taxi (which we I suggest you stay away from as they do charge more by taking longer routes) or if we had taken the train/metro as they charge per person and we are a family of 5. The apartment itself was roomy by European standards, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a kitchen/dining area. It sleeps 5 people comfortably, with 2 beds and a sofa bed. She did provide a crib for our 1 year old baby which was a PLUS! She had a full pantry full of dishes, towels and such and the place comes with a washer/dryer as well and good WiFi. All in all Lina's place is a great find, I highly recommend it!!
