Prati
After 25 - 30 visits in the last ten years I consider this area the best compromise in terms of price, location, places to eat etc. Also fewer beggars and tourists so no rip off joints.
I'm there in Jan.
Somewhere between Lepanto Metro staion and Piazza Cavour. Easy walking distance to the Vatican, Navona, Campo, Spagna and Pantheon and then Metro to the other side for the Forums and Ampitheatre.
A three day unlimted travel pass (Metro, Buses and Trains) = 15 Euros. (Remember to validate it though only on the first use).
Also, big big tip, the queue for the Ampitheatre is for buying the ticket. If you visit the forum or Palatine first then you have a ticket for all three so you can bypass the queue.
Vatican Museums are open until six so don't be a muppet and go in the morning, go in the afternoon, if you can wait until about 16:30 before going to the Sistine Chapel you will be rewarded with a more comfortable viewing. Also try to go on a weekday (be careful though most museums are closed on a monday).

It was certainly very convenient; an easy walk to all the touristy bits.Comment
