The area was the seller for me — down a quiet enough street, but near the busy (and restaurant filled) Campo de Fiori. Lots of options for eating, drinking, shopping all within walking distance. Rome’s biggest highlights aren’t exactly close by, but it’s an easy 25-30 minute walk to The Pantheon and Trevi Fountain area. Carmen’s place is simple and meant for the type of traveler who explores all day and just needs somewhere to rest their head. Please take advantage of the free breakfast buffet at Trattoria Moderna every morning — the coffee, croissants, quiche, and spinach dishes are so delicious! Why wouldn’t you want a yummy free breakfast every morning to start your day? Thanks for the great stay in Rome! Be prepared to pay an extra hotel fee upon arrival (she mentions this in the disclaimer).
