Valerio’s Place is just as it looks - quaint and fun! Everything that you need is there as well as special little touches you didn’t expect. It’s an excellent location and easy to walk to many of the Rome sites. We felt the Metro was much easier to use than the buses (Our bus was delayed with traffic on our arrival so we missed our time with Valerio). Use the Metro - very easy. We also bought the Roma Pass which allowed us entry to two tourist sites for free and others at a cheaper rate as well as all public transport. Buy the pass at the Rome Termini - it will save you A LOT of time waiting in line. Also, if you go to the Vatican buy your ticket on line at least a few weeks in advance and pay for a tour. It is so crowed, you won’t see enough without a tour guide plowing thru the crowds for you. Valerio was very attentive and available via AirB&B text or phone. I would definitely stay at “The Place” again. Grazie!
