We could not imagine staying in a better location. You can walk to everything. The furthest walk was the Colosseum which was about 30 minutes. Everything else is very close - about 15 minutes. There is a cute grocery store 1 block away. Piazza Navona was a wonderful place to watch people, eat and have a bit of wine. Piazza Navona is just down the street when you walk out the front door to the left. Also, when you walk out the door to the left and go down the street (50 yards), you will find taxis all day every day. Walking to the right of the front door (facing out) is a very quaint street with shopping and restaurants. This area of Rome has beautiful narrow cobblestone streets lined with pedestrians. People were very friendly. Everywhere around you there are cute places to eat with outside tables. The weather was perfect while were here in April. It was not too cold or too hot. Antonella was very communicative both before we traveled and while we were there. Antonella's place was very clean and beautiful. We had everything we needed. We are a family of 5 with three teenagers. Everyone had a comfortable place to sleep. We are from Chicago so the urban life did not bother us, but know that you are staying right in the middle of the city. This is not necessarily a quiet neighborhood. However, the city noise never stopped us from sleeping. This was not a problem for us, but you must walk up stairs to the apartment. Once you are there, the view is beautiful and it is a wonderful bright space. We would definitely choose Antonella's place to stay for our next trip to Roma!
