Pina was great, she was very helpful and always communicated back. She did not speak English and we did not speak Italian so talking was hard but that's why google translate is life.
The apartment was clean and cosy and had a very home like feel. It was close to the bus stop and semi close to the main train station. The neighborhood was okay, not ideal for us unfortunately, it was pretty loud and had a lot of tagging on the exterior walls. But from touring Rome a lot of neighborhoods where this way and only a few (pricey ones) where not.
But the restaurants around the apartment where delicious and authentic! And the neighborhood was young and hip, lots of cool dive bars.
