Casa Orietta was perfect! This adorable studio is right on a bus line that takes you directly to the Vatican, which is actually in walking distance.
Orietta is a very thoughtful host and had breakfast items stocked for me. If she hadn't had been so thoughtful, I would've been very hungry the first two days, as my debit card company forgot I'd be in Italy. It was over a day before I could get any cash.
Very few places in Italy take credit cards.
She had plenty of tourist books and maps to help me during my visit. The water was very hot & pressure great for showers.
I highly recommend Casa Orietta for your stay in Rome. The studio is perfect for a solo traveler or a close couple.
