Paola's apartment was beautiful and in the perfect location for seeing the top tourist attractions. It is only a couple of blocks from the Vatican, and only about a 10 minute walk to the metro that will take you to the Colloseum area. The apartment is on a fun street with restaraunts, but is also extremely quiet at night. Paola, was such a wonderful host and always very helpful. Our family had a great time in Rome and being in such a great location made it ideal.
