This adorable apartment is located in the heart of Pigneto. It is accessible by public transit but depending on traffic it can take a while to get into the center of Rome. Pigneto itself is a very charming neighborhood and there are lots of cute restaurants and little shops around the area. Also, there is a fair amount of noise at night so if you are a light sleeper this may not be the apartment for you. It didn't bother me but I thought I should mention it. The apartment is perfect and even has a tiny little balcony. The bathroom is huge compared to most bathrooms in Rome and included a washer which is great if you pack light and need to wash your clothes. I was glad that I was able to learn more about Pigneto and this sweet apartment fit a majority of my needs.
Public transit wise -- take the 50 if arriving from Termini station and when exploring the city take the 81 bus. It is basically the public transit version of a hop on/hop off. It goes to all the major sites and then back to Pigneto.
