My teenage son, sister, and I were happy to have 3 separate places to sleep and 2 separate bathrooms for our Rome Marathon trip. My sister was especially grateful for the lift (elevator) after the marathon. Toiletries and a small hairdryer were provided. It was great to be able to do a load of laundry, too (detergent was provided). The Colosseum is about 20-25 minutes away on foot. The Basilica di San Giovanni in Laterano and the Holy Steps are also very close by and worth checking out. There are some nice cafes and restaurants nearby, as well as a few very close places to pick up basic groceries. We found the local servers and baristas to be friendlier than those in the most touristy areas. The neighborhood felt very safe, and the building has a locked entry gate, as well as a locked front door to the building and a security guard. We're really glad we chose to stay here rather than at a hotel.
