We really loved Barbara's place , The apartment is really clean, well stocked, safe and her service was superb. She made us feel that we were welcome to be there and received us with a basket of wine, fruit and various snacks, a really nice touch that we appreciate it! She outlined the points of interest , had a lot of maps, reading material of places to see. Despite being 25 mins from down town Rome, her place is readily accessible to public transportation that runs from 530 am till midnight. It is also surrounded by a pizza places, ice cream, convenience store and ATM. Overall it is a great place to stay, we felt at home and enjoyed our stay worry free.
