Giovanni's apartment is definitely in a beautiful courtyard building designed by a famous architect. The position is perfect for sightseeing, as it is close to all the main tourist attractions, which are very busy, but close to the more interesting parts of Rome, Trastevere just south of the river and the Jewish a Ghetto, where the the Jews were held on a papal order for 300 years.
The apartment was perfect for our stay. Cosy and simply furnished on the 1st floor. Giovanni had booked a taxi from the airport, which at 40 euros is worth doing. Flavia met us and showed us around the apartment, which also had city maps and restaurant recommendations.
