Monica's place was an ideal base for exploring Rome - within a few minutes' walk of Ottaviano metro station (Line A) which is really convenient for getting into the centre and to Termini station. The apartment is also within walking distance of the Vatican, and there is a bus stop just 2 minutes from the apartment which has a number of useful bus lines. The apartment is a basement one, which meant it was pleasantly cool in the hot summer weather. It was clean and comfortable, with a good-sized kitchen with hob, microwave and washing machine. Eva, Monica's daughter, checked us in and gave us her number and made a number of great recommendations for things to see and places to eat nearby. We had a wonderful stay in Rome and would definitely recommend Monica's place!
