It's a great spot for budget travelers.
10min walking distance to metro, which cost 1,5eur for 100min, station Ponte Lungo. Therefore easy access to downtown, Vatican, Colosseum. Also possible to walk to Colosseum around 3km from here, great local market on the way, with all the fresh food, cured meats, cheeses, baked goods you can imagine. There is couple mini supermarkets in the area Coop and Conad, pizzeria around the corner and down the street there is a gelateria called Frandoro, where you can stack up your ice cream with as many scoops as you want. The place itself mirrors everything you can read in the description and see in the pictures, no surprises there. Claudio is great host, gives all the necessary info and is there to help you, if you have any other questions.
