Very Close to the Metro!!! It was easy getting around as a tourist from the USA!! Buy a $5 metro ticket for the day and you can see all of Rome! Pina, Claudios mother recommended it and I am glad we listened! NO TAXIS!! Take the metro!! My family and I had a great time and it is located by excellent restaurants ( 1 block away)not overrun by tourists. A little shop is next door so you can pick up some drinks, water, snacks.. etc... Also, a bunch of nice little bakery shops are 100 feet from the apartment too!! We picked up some delicious breakfast items for the next morning. Claudio couldn't meet us but his mother Pina is a sweetheart and was very helpful when checking in! I will most likely stay again in a few months when I come back! I have nothing to say but great things!!
