We had a really good time in the apartment. Everything was sprakling clean and we were greatful for the snacks in the kitchen. It was nice to wake up the first morning and not worry about breakfast. We also found some basic ingredients for a quick lunch even though we didn’t use it, it was such a nice touch. We felt that Giuseppina really minds that her guests enjoy their stay. She also organised self check-in for us as our flight was late (my understanding was that she normally meets her guests).
The location is a bit far from the centre, 45-50 minutes from the main sights and areas by public transport. Taxi is around 15-30 euros to the centre. Pigneto as an area is rather real than the centre of Rome. Not touristic, simpler restaurants and bars but we didn’t mind exploring this face of the city too. We found a cool bar nearby and an amazing fish restaurant that was the recommendation of Giuseppina. The area is great for fish restaurants!
