Our stay at Maria Christina’s place was wonderful! The roomy apartment was just as she described. The entry through a courtyard garden was lovely. The elevator to the second floor was handy with the luggage. The neighborhood, on a major boulevard, was very walkable, and the Vatican was within a reasonable walk. There were quite a number of decent, well rated restaurants, nearby and a wonderful cafe/pastry shop, with very good cappuccino and delicious cornettos, diagonally across the street. Also, there is handy access to many buses and the Cipro metro station is just a few blocks away. We bought passes and readily accessed points all over the city. We stayed over a week and Maria Christina, unexpectedly, offered to have the place cleaned at the midpoint of our stay- it was nice to get fresh towels, etc. We would definitely recommend and would consider staying here again, if we are lucky enough to make a return trip to Roma!
