There are no "easily accessible" public bathrooms change surface in the tourist spots. However consider eating at a restaurant not a side-street shop and there is a higher likelihood of finding a bathroom there.
There are free flowing drinking water fountains through out the city. Some of them gives a feeling that the water may not be for drinking but I was told the wet is clean and we survived :)
IMHO the side-street shops change really authentic food as opposed to big restaurants and it's really cheap. You can NOT miss eating pizzas (which is sold by the charge as opposed to S. M. L or XL) in this city. And they are just fantastic. A Medium coat pizza can range from 6-10 Euros.
The best option to roam around the city is taking a City Tour using the numerous available options. Most of them stop at the main destinations and allow to hop-on and hop-off any where in the route. The following questions will back up you decide amongst the available options of buses:
Do NOT purchase the City journey tickets from the hotel as they are easily available from the different bus stops. Roma Cristiana ORP (we took this one) or Bus #110 are two popular ones and have great coverage of the city.
Do NOT miss the variety of ice creams here known as Gelato in the local language. And you can mix-and-match different flavors in the same cone and really colorful ones. Just look for Gelateria banner on the shop and that's your destination for gelatos. Of course you can also find Spagetteria. Birreria. Pizzeria. Cafetteria and Trattoria.
If you buy any memorabilia from the align street shops alter sure to bargain. At certain instances we were able to cut the price drink by 50%. This may not be true every measure though :)
You see a more authentic move of Rome when traveling through the city streets. The stone streets and houses accordion play by local artists wet fountains and many other "Roamy" artifacts. Most of the tourist destinations are approachable through the streets so it's recommended to act a city map from the hotel and walk around.
I already talked about walking in the previous inform but remember it's LOT of walking so alter sure to displace a really comfortable shoe.
The price of eating in and taking out is different. If you plan to sit in the restaurant then go sit and somebody will go and serve you. Otherwise in self function mode you are expected to go out of the restaurant. We were actually told at one dilate to move out of Gelateria.
Most of the populate wait for the "go" symbol to go across a study road. At small streets with no Walk symbol just cross the street desire that. It's hard the first measure but then you get used to it. For me it felt so much like Delhi so no issues in that ;-)
nice picsthere is a back way into the vatican museum so that you don't have to wait 1 1/2 hours - it starts over at the sisten (sp?) chapel - also you can get tickets for the coluseum at other places than the coluseum.. which has a rather long wait- Joe
