The last two times I've been to Italy, I've used these fine people:

They're jolly good! See what takes your fancy. I couldn't tell you which places to avoid cos I've never really wandered around the back alleys after dark. I guess price and proximity to the centre/ metro are most important. The area round the train station used to be the prime site for cheap pensione's for student railcarders. It did show though. Last time we stayed near the Vatican. Not too touristy but still within easy travelling/ good walking distance of the main attracttions. Don't forget to take some sensible shoes. :wink:

You're welcome. Throw a coin in the Trevi Fountain for me.
