I always go sightseeing, and this location allowed us to really experience how wonderful Rome really was! The apartment was gorgeous and pristine. It has a beautiful view from the balcony, refrigerator, microwave, and toaster. It even had pans and hot plates for cooking. They had advised us that there was a Lidl grocery around the corner so you could buy things although we only purchased wine from there. Location of the bus stop 81 to Vatican City and everywhere else was literally steps away. We had to cross the street to purchase tickets for 1.50€ from a newspaper stand which was no problem. Ornella and her husband left papers in the room explaining where the bus station was, and which sights corresponded with each stop. This was our first time taking a bus in Europe, so it was a great experience and very easy. The shuttle was very easy. Her husband was there waiting at the airport with a sign. This was my first time in Rome, so I was VERY grateful that I did not rent a car and attempt to drive in that headache. The shuttle was very much worth it. We enjoyed many more expensive restaurants in the tourist area (lunch at a restaurant viewing the Coliseum set us back 79€ for two) but we found some of our most delicious (and definitely affordable) food and drinks of Rome came from restaurants and bars near the apartment. I cannot say enough good things! Choose this place if you have high lodging standards, and would like the best of both worlds in terms of experiencing Rome!
