Ana's place is absolutely beautiful, it's spacious, clean (despite a bit of dust here and there) and at proximity of the Colosseum, the Roman forum and a stunning park with a few ruins going towards town. At the other end of the street you have a church where a piece of the cross is being kept, for those of you interested.
When you come in from the street into a little foyer where you can either take the stairs to the first or fourth floor ( I stayed in the fourth floor apartment) or you can either take one of the two most gorgeous little elevators. As you go into the apartment you just feel at home straight away, which after travelling for hours makes you feel very relaxed.
Ana organised for a taxi to pick me and my friend up, the car was a beautiful Mercedes... That was a great service for 50€ , it meant that it was one thing to worry less about.
When we arrived the driver helped us contact Dorina, Ana's assistant who helped us settle in. She speaks a little English but if she doesn't know q word she will make you can understand what she is saying by pointing, on the plus side it gives you a bit of Italian vocabulary!
As we arrived late afternoon and we were tired from travelling we didn't feel up to going out, I found a little pizza place called Alice where they sell very nice pizza by the weight! It was probably the best pizza I had all week end.
The only down side to this apartment is the very noisy upstairs neighbours. It's alright during the day but until eleven at night you can either hear a pet walking about, a young child running, crying or playing about, so if you are a light sleeper I'd recommend for you to bring some earplugs. But once in a while you'd hear him laugh which was rather enjoyable.
So there, every thing you probably need to know. Ana is a great host, her apartment is beautifully situated close to the Ancient Rome area but the only downside are the above neighbours.
