Super close to Vatican City within a 5-7 min walk . Once we got to know the area we realized that we were only 1 1/2 blocks from the local subway station, which was very convenient to the main train terminal ( Roma Termini) from there you can switch to the other local lines to the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, Arch of Constantine,and Circus Maximus, all within a short walking distance from each other. I would definitively stay there again.
