We spent eight delightful evenings at this very comfortable and clean apartment. Rome sightseeing is spectacular, but also crowded, loud and tiring. The Gianicolo neighborhood, where this property is located, is away from the tourist locations which suited us well. Getting downtown was easy, cheap and fast taking buses with pickup/drop-off locations a block away. In the neighborhood there were local outdoor markets to shop for fresh fruit, meats, fish and vegetables. A local fresh pasta maker is minutes away and we found the bakery that supplies many restaurants with bread and pastries. We used the kitchen to prepare meals from our fresh foods purchased in the markets, but also found our favorite restaurant in the neighborhood for when we didn't want to cook. Communication was superb with the hosts. Two thumbs up for this apartment, location and host.
