Giovanni's apartment is cool, quiet, kind of old-world modern, with comfortable spaces to relax and unwind after grueling days in the thick of Rome. The location is fantastic - just one block to a tram stop, which connects you to anything, but exceedingly quiet. Giovanni provides a great list of very close-by vendors so you can pick up some fresh food for the apartment to enjoy on the terrace in the mornings. And as a life-long local, he has some great insight into good restaurants (such as the best pizza in Rome, just around the corner). We arrived late, and Giovanni graciously accommodated our messy schedule. He was waiting for us at the door when we arrived and informed us that the restaurant across the street had great salads, and anticipating that we might be hungry, he let the owner know we might be stopping in. In truth, this is exactly what we needed! If I go back to Rome, I will absolutely stay here again.
