I couldn’t have asked for a better place than Monica’s! I requested to book last minute and Monica was very quick to respond. Neighborhood is centrally located and lively. It is just around the corner and down the street from the colosseum and public transport. There are many, many amazing places to eat and shop very close. We had some of our best meals
in this neighborhood. Remember to book a reservation as most restaurants fill up quickly! Monica has a very nice list of suggestions. My parents and I stayed in three different locations in Rome and this was my favorite. It has a lot of the sites nearby yet feels local and quiet enough to forget about the droves of tourists at Trevi fountain. And, yes, you can walk there in 10 min; approx 15 min to the Spanish Steps.
The apartment has an elevator- perfect for my parents. It is very bright, open and nicely decorated. Monica keeps it fully stocked with all your basics (and more) for the kitchen and bath. Three nice sized bedrooms (the smallest has a beautiful balcony!). Comfortable beds. Two bathrooms and a washing machine - a plus. There was a little noise at night but didn’t bother me much. I would highly recommend staying at Monica’s apartment and hope to return myself someday.
