I can't remember whether it has a lift, although you could probably check the website. If your disability requires a lift, you might find that a problem as so much accommodation in Rome is in old and historic buildings that don't have such things. @ Paula The Residenza Madre Pie might suit you well as it’s close to the Vatican.

I'm going as single this trip and there is a real advantage as they have single rooms- they don't charge you the dreaded "single supplement". Recommend giving them a look as they make the booking for you and I'd expect all the places Santa Sussana mentions will be on their website. I think you'd save a lot of time and effort.
