Catharine's place was perfect for my 10-day work/pleasure trip to Rome. Situated within 10 minutes walk from St. Peter's square, with several good cafe and pastry shops on the way, i was easily able to get to my meetings at the Vatican each day. At the end of the work week, the proximity to St Pietro station made day trips to Bracciano, Tivoli, and Ostia very simple. Catharine provided fresh bread every day, and stocked the refrigerator on my arrival. highly recommend
