We were not greeted by the host, Lina. Her husband met us and he was unwelcoming, impatient and unhelpful. Unpleasant experience. There was no information in the apartment. When asked about local recommendations we were told to use Google! The toilet seat was broken so he came back later to fix it. The apartment is much older looking than in the photos. The bathroom needs work. The kitchen is fine and has everything needed for cooking. The apartment was clean. The bedrooms and sitting room are spacious. The beds are fine but pillows hard. The location on a main road means it is has loud traffic noise all night. We needed earplugs. The aircon works but old and so noisy we could not use it when we went to bed. Fan in sitting room much better. Testaccio is a great location but would choose another place to stay.
