Maria’s place is in a great location. There are plenty of places to eat and it’s only a 5 minute walk to the Colosseum. Make sure to ask them about the restaurant close by (if they don’t already tell you). It’s delicious and inexpensive. The place itself has all of the basic amenities. We weren’t looking for something super fancy as we were out exploring most of the day and happy to come back to Maria’s. Maria and her husband are the sweetest people and gave us a detail walk through of the place and provided many helpful tips for seeing Rome. I would definitely stay here again!
