Barbara's place is perfect! It felt like a home away from home! I miss the balcony already. The location was very central, super close to the colosseum and trendy local hang outs. Restaurants and shops are so close but it is also a neighborhood so you don't feel like a tourist. But all the tourist amenities are right there. Barbara was very hospitable and offered to assist in getting transportation arranged. The place was great and she was great. Next time I'm in Rome I'm going right back to Barbara's!
