The location is exceptional as you are actually close to all the classic sights of Rome. The Colosseum and Fori Imperiali are no more than an easy five minute walk from your door, and the “Cavour” underground Metro station is approximately two hundred meters away. It’s worth lingering a moment along the narrow lanes of the Suburra, the church of Santa Pudenziana and its Byzantine mosaic. This is the oldest church in Rome, dating back to the third century A.D, where as legend has it, Saint Peter found shelter during the Persecution of the Christians. A stone's throw away is the church of Santa Prassede and obviously the magnificent and imposing Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore. The “Suburra” – the previous name of this district located on the slopes of the Quirinale, and Viminale hills spreading as far as Esquilino hill, was a suburban neighbourhood of ill-fame. Patricians and new freedmen alike built their houses here, surrounded by taverns, brothels, prostitutes, thieves, traders and some respectable people. During the reign of Emperor Vespasian the Colosseum was built down the eastern part of the city, while on the south you could admire the Arch of Titus and the Temple of Neptune on the west. Today the district of Suburra is called “Rione Monti”, the first neighbourhood of the city, one of the few places still offering genuine breathing space.
