We had a wonderful time during our four nights at Simone's place. Public transit just a few minutes walk but we opted to walk everywhere and enjoy the April weather. The Colloseum is about a twenty minute walk and we made it over to the Vatican in about an hour walking along the Tiber. There is a grocery store and an Eately within a few minutes walk. Simone was very responsive and helpful. We had an issue with a broken key and he was there with a replacement in less than an hour. There is no reserved parking spot per se, but Simone had staked one out for us when we arrived and we didn't have any difficulty finding another when we got back late from a day trip. He had some great recommendations for nearby restaurants. I would stay at Simone's place again when we visit Rome again.
