Rita’s apartment is centrally located to all of Rome’s essential tourist attractions. My 18 year old daughter and I stayed there 5 days and walked to the Coliseum, the Spanish Steps , the Trevi Fountain , Piazza Navona and more . I would suggest a taxi or bus to the Vatican although we walked there too. It’s just a very hilly walk. Rita was very quick to respond to any of my questions. The apartment is very clean and new and gated. We always felt safe .
