So glad you changed plans to stay based in Rome - now you don't have to worry about the other domino effect: adjusting four different hotel stays when you arrive two days late!

Best of luck.

What a wonderful 1st European experience. All your tips paid off. Loved our apartments' location near Michelangelo's impressive steps in the Capitol Hill area. Close to so much....but that didn't stop us from getting turned around alot! Hope to share more under trip reports later, but again thanks for all your good advise!

Marsha,

Welcome back. Looking forward to your report.
