Domus Vera Colosseum

The right home for a couple who come to Rome wanting to spend their money on dinners and tickets rather than on square metres they'll never use. A self-contained studio on the second floor with lift, with a kitchenette and private bathroom.

It's small and doesn't pretend otherwise: it's clean, bright and has everything you need to sleep well, make a coffee in the morning and head out. The location does the rest.

It is hard to stay more central for less. The Colosseum and the Circus Maximus are walkable, so is San Giovanni, and the historic centre is a stroll along Via dei Fori Imperiali.

The area has everything: banks, bars, restaurants, a pharmacy and a Carrefour supermarket nearby. With two metro stops and surface lines at the door, you'll never need a taxi.
