You cant get much closer to the Vatican-- Its right across the street. The place is clean and has all the ammenities we needed. The layout is very nice-- two spacious bedrooms separated by a living room. Traffic noise was a slight concern as its on a busy street, but there are heavy outside shutters to close that helped. The host and his family were very friendly. Its conveniently located near a fair sized supermarket, and also near the river for nice strolls. Taxi stop is also very close. I'd recommend the place.
