Great host and location!! Cristina is the nicest host ever! It's a 5 minute walk to the St Giovannie A line metro station which will get you to pretty much everywhere you may want to go in Rome. It's a 25 minute walk to the Colosseum if you don't want to take the 20 minute metro option. It's a residential area so you will get a taste of what it's like living as a local. There are markets & shops close by.
