We lived at Alessandra's place for 3 months and loved it. Testaccio is a great location - lively and fun, walking distance to the centre, very pretty, with excellent restaurants. Alessandra's apartment is modern, comfortable, bright and warm, located right on the river in a beautiful complex, and Alessandra is a very helpful and accommodating host. It was the perfect base to get to know Rome and we would happily stay there again.
