Hello! I’ll be visiting Rome next week and I’m thinking about attending a concert at MONK. Has anyone been there before? Would you recommend it? I’m hesitating as it’s a little bit far from the city c… more
Monk is cool! The sound is usually pretty good there. It's a bit out of the way, you're right, but if you're not bothered about being right in the heart of things, it's worth it. For dinner beforehand, check out Trattoria Monti – it's a bit closer to Monk and does amazing pasta.

You'll need a magnifying glass though, those mosaics are tiny in places!
