We had a great 5-night stay at Barbara's place. We loved the neighborhood. The apartment is half a block from the river and just a couple blocks from the Mercato Testaccio, which was convenient and fun. The 'Cemetery for Non-Catholics' is a few blocks away and a lovely place to walk around. Pizzeria Remo was one of the highlights of our whole Italy trip and Trapizzino is another casual restaurant well worth checking out.
Barbara is super-responsive. Her friend was waiting right on time to check us in. The place has everything you need for a great stay in Rome.
