What a wonderful apartment, in a cool area of town. Sonia's place was spotlessly clean and she had left cookies and fruit to greet us when we arrived. The diggs are stylish and modern. Very contemporary on the inside. Grand and historical on the outside. Great walking and EATING in this neighborhood. No shortage of excellent restaurants and bakeries.... and all just a simple stroll down the street. The atmosphere in Testaccio feels safe and hip. All ages and very laid back. The apartment courtyard is really neat too...the variety of birds that congregate in that area sounded like an aviary or birds sanctuary. The Italian songs the birds sing are different from what I hear in my yard in California. Sonia was lightning fast to respond to any questions, and she even called our taxi for the next day's VERY early flight home to the US. Her notes and suggestions on restaurants and destinations are very good. Sonia went over and above to insure this rental is perfect! I would stay there again and if you are lucky enough to book this place you will not be disappointed. Thank you again Sonia!!! We loved it!
