Marbo's apartment was very convenient for our family of 5. There were plenty of beds and towels for everyone. The apartment is a very interesting use of space. We were only staying 2 nights and our main goal was to see the Colisseum. His apartment was perfect for that. Two metro stops from the Colisseum and four stops from the main train station (Termini). There are plenty of restaurants in walking distance. Our favorite was the Ostiense 10 which served Middle Eastern food and Italian food at great prices. If you are looking for an economical solution in this part of Rome, this is it.
