Roma is magnificent, a must go city in Italy. Giorgia is a great personality, and all her food stuff is organic and good quality. She even baked a couple small cakes for me, and very tasty. Living in their neighborhood is like living in a beautiful park, so many huge trees and flowering shrubs, quite nice. The trek to downtown and back is quite a lot, so be aware if you plan to stay a long time, because it can be tiring daily for several days or more. For just a day or two it's not big deal. The bike trek to the river's edge is not easy because of small sidewalks and busy narrow streets, a Roma characteristic overall. Once at the riverside, it's possible to ride to town on the bike paths. It is not very close, though, so expect a serious bike ride whenever you go there and back, and I say this as an avid bicycle commuter. It's no problem for a day or two, but is time consuming and tiring daily over a long period of time. Riding in the city of Rome is like becoming a gladiator for a day. Only experienced riders with a big presence and awareness should ride in the actual city, and your bike could get stolen while locked up. It's also sketchy riding back at night with no helmet and limited lighting. Taking the bus and or trolley might be best. Expect a commute, but realize, you will stay in a very cute apartment with a big bathroom and a lot of privacy. If staying for several days or more, it's a good idea to work out the breakfast expectations beforehand, so you're on the same page. I cook a lot when I travel, but many people don't, so it just depends on the person. I rent places with kitchens, because I want to actually cook everyday. The patio in the picture with a table, chairs, and pergola is a community patio above the apartment and up the stairs about 25 meters from the apartment back door. It's rarely used, so often available, beautiful, and quiet, but not easily accessible to use as a dining room, like I imagined. The garden is beautiful. The pool was closed while I was there, but might be open now.
