Located in Testaccio, a surprisingly un-touristy neighborhood given how central it is, the apartment was very close to the Testaccio market, a great collection of different vendors selling all manners of produce, fish, meats, and other foodstuffs. It was also within walking distance to the Roma Ostiense train station and the Piramide Metro stop, making it very easy to get to different parts of the city, as well as to and from the airport.
The interior of the apartment is comfortable, “shabby chic” and fully stocked with all the appliances and accoutrements one could ask for. In addition, the place was spotlessly clean, and fairly quiet for an apartment in the city. If you’re looking for a casual, comfortable place from which to explore the city while getting away from the inexorable press of tourists, this is a great option.
