We fly into Rome and spend 3 jam packed days walking and seeing and walking and seeing and etc, etc.
We were tired and the eye balls hurt from looking. We stayed at a cute little hotel - Hotel Trevi- just around the corner from the fountain. It was a most convenient place to walk and see all the sights. The staff at the hotel were very nice and helpful. The hotel is small, but the people are big hearted.
We could not believe what it cost to get a car to take us to the port - Civitavecchia. But we found everything in Rome expensive, but we still ate our share of the gelato (YUM).
Very clean. The views with the balcony were great. Alway get a veranda room.
