We stayed during 3 nights at Andrea and Carla's BnB in Rome.

Only 10 minute walk to Coliseum and Metro, as well as a great bus (no. 81) at the corner that leaves you at the Vatican in just 30-40 min depending on traffic.

Very quiet residential area, breakfast at a cafe nearby.

They were great hosts - plenty of maps and travel info. at the BnB and the bathroom was great. One has own key so great independence, but they were very worried about any needs we might have.

Would DEFINITELY recommend....and return when we come back to ROMA ;-)
