The apartment was 20 minutes walk to the Colosseum and 10 minutes to the Circo Massimo. We were greeted on arrival by a lovely lady who took the time to show us around the apartment and show us where things were. The apartment was in a quiet street within 10 minutes walk from the Piramide metro station (opposite direction to the Colosseum). It was really handy and easy to use, and took us closer to the centre, although most of Rome was walkable from the apartment if you prefer. Not many places to eat nearby but we wanted to go further into the city to eat anyway! The apartment was just what we needed for our 4 day stay in Rome!
