The property is in Trieste so out of the bustle of the city centre. But as the apartment is just a 10 minute walk from two metro stations, which runs from around 6am until 11.30pm, it is easy to get to. There are plenty of places to eat and drink within a 20 minute walk should you not want to spend all your time in the touristy part of Rome. The hostess was very accommodating and available at any time to help out as we navigated the local area.
