Giorgia's appartement is a super nice place. It's exactly what she promised. I was there with two kids ( 15 and 20) and it worked out fine. The neighborhood is a little ' rough' but once you used to it is super nice. Nice bars and restaurants, not a lot of tourists, really a nice relaxed atmosphere. We traveled everyday by bus to Roma Termini with the express bus 50 which worked out fine. Termini is the perfect base from where you can easily visit all the hotspots by metro/walk.
