This is such a beautiful and cozy home and felt as if it was ours, we didn't want to leave. We have already recommended Silvias place to many of our friends and family for them to stay in when they visit Rome themselves. We hope to return soon. I would say definitely utilise the metro as much as possible as it was a god send to us but we only really figured it out towards the end of our stay, however the Collusseum is only a 20 min walk away from Silcjas home along with some wonderful restaurants.
