Giancarlo is a phenomenal host and his apartment is great. It looks even better than the pictures, large and inviting, very clean and as a bonus there is heat if you're visiting in the winter. Within walking distance of the metro, major bus transit and even a local train to the airport. Also within walking distance of a lot of great restaurants and the testaccio market. Very easy to get to all main sites using either the bus or metro just around the corner from the apartment. Giancarlo was also very responsive to all queries, gave us some great recommendations on food, shopping, etc. We also arrived from the US and weren't sure if we'd be able to use our phones to access the intercom system, so Giancarlo met us at the apartment personally to let us in and show us around. Cannot recommend enough! This place is a gem, run by a great person. Grazie mille, Giancarlo!
