We loved our home away from home in Testaccio, the perfect place to feel like a local. It was close to a number of grocery stores, cafes and wonderful playgrounds. The people in the area are so lovely and welcoming. Despite previous reviews, we never really heard much from the outside. If you do have small children, it's worth noting that there is 1 set of stairs to the lift and it's too small to roll a stroller in to so you will need to carry it upstairs but the apartment is very family friendly.
