Beautiful apartment, at first unsure of the neighborhood - got quite a few unfriendly stares - but found two places to eat nearby - delicious and a great value. The last night was a place so incredible with a sweet waitress and an excellent Romanian cook. We had the best carbonara - so creamy, not gross or too greasy - we had in or outside of Italy. Use the Taxibeat app to easily get a cheap taxi to anywhere if you have mobile service. We found it more convenient than the metro. The view from the apartment obviously incredible, spacious and quiet, clothes dried super-fast, host easily reachable, loved it. Even had a real-live excavation going on a few blocks away viewable from the rooftop. Note: don't get tempted to buy too much from the grocery store because though it's delicious stuff, you want to eat the great restaurant food as much as possible!
