The area is a pleasant non touristic place, where you mostly find roman people, having a ‘normal’ life.
It is close to the A line metro that gets you very rapidly in the center of Rome, the Vatican, villa Borghese gardens, etc.
Massimo is a very kind person, and very helpful to get touristic information on the places to see, how to reach them as well as on practical matters as shops and restaurants in the area.
