Villa Dominici offers a unique and magical experience that exceeds expectations (the pictures really don't do it justice). This fairytale walled palace was the perfect mix of tranquility and accessibility with the location being the perfect base from which to explore Rome. We walked (a LOT!) with popular attractions such as the colosseum being around a 40 minute walk away. For the less energetic, the main train and Metro station (Termini) is a short walk away. Although we sadly didn't get to meet Cristina (we missed her by a couple of minutes), she was in regular contact and the perfect host. I've already been extolling the virtues of this amazing apartment to anyone who will listen and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to those wanting something a little more special when staying in Rome.
