The apartment was very clean and there were biscuits and wine waiting for us. It's right across the street from the colosseum, 5 min walk from the forum, 10 min walk to Trevi fountain, 15 min walk to the Spanish steps and the pantheon. We didn't walk to the Vatican but it would have been less than 30 min. Brewdog has a taproom right outside along with countless restaurants and shop. Only downside is the fact that u can here the neighbors getting up and ready for the day, but that seems to be the norm here everywhere we stay! Was isn't the norm is a bottle of wine and water waiting for us open arrival! Nice touch Andrea! Great host with a very useful guide book he put together himself! Book it! U won't be disappointed.
