I can't think a better spot to stay in Rome. Ivana is awesome. We walked to everything. Groceries are nearby although Ivana provided us with some welcome goods as well including many delicious oranges. Having two bathrooms was a nice plus. Rome is a city so there is nighttime activity. For a quieter sleep, you have the option of the interior bedroom but we used the room along the street and loved it. The balcony is off the kitchen and provides a view of the beautiful 5th century Santa Maria Maggiore Basilica, a wonderful place to visit that is perhaps nearly as beautiful as anything you'll see at the Vatican, which operates it. I would stay here again and again!
