Barbara's place was perfect for our family's Rome vacation. The apartment's location is perfect. It is within walk in distance to lot of shops and restaurants. More importantly, its about a 15 min walk to the Coliseum, 6 min walk to the main metro and bus station. You can take the metro to the vatican for 1.50 euro per person. Its just 6 stops away ( about at 15 min ride). The apartment itself looks freshly remodeled. It is very clean and has a modern look. The kitchen was our favorite place. She has included all the utensils, kitcheware for making meals. Also, the house has air conditioning for each room which was so nice for the hot summer days. Barbara also communicates quickly and very responsivebefore and during our stay. She met us personally on the day of check in and helped us to settle in. Our experience here exceeded all our expectation. We higly recommend this place!
