When I did a solo trip to Rome a few years back I stayed in one located within walking distance of the vatican. Cheap very clean and meals available if you want them (for a small price)
Worth looking at

For four people, apartments were the way to go. Room for kids to move around, a little more furniture to lounge on too. We were back on our own last year, and again opted for apartments a couple times even though it was just the two of us. Having a kitchen or kitchenette can save you loads on food, and the prep time is a fun way to decompress after a busy day. We enjoy being located in the city centre as opposed to somewhere in the outskirts. A little extra money to be right in the thick of things is well worth it, and it allows for more time to explore instead of spending time on the metro or a bus. This is especially true for a city like Venice, that tends to be much more relaxed in the early mornings and evenings after the day time crowd has headed back to their accommodations outside the city.
Italy is indeed a fabulous country to visit with so much to do and see. It would be a shame for someone to avoid it thinking it was too expensive.

Emma,

This is a general article. Nowhere in it do I suggest people travel now. It’s for people who are doing research for future travel.

Or is this intentionally ignoring no one can really travel right now? This would be a good article to trot out when COVID is behind us. No sooner.
