Rita's place is a small, quiet apartment with everything you would need. She had it ready with snacks and coffee. She was so friendly and helpful, providing us with a map of Rome and restaurant suggestions. Although the flat is quiet with little noise, there are shops right outside the door; gelato, shopping, and restaurants. Not to mention it's within walking distance of all the major city sights. We walked to the Vatican, the colosseum, and the Trevi Fountain. I cannot say enough good things about this location. We felt very safe as well. So pleased with our stay and would love to go again if we're ever back in Rome!
