Unfortunately we didn’t had the chance to meet Federico but he arranged that we were welcomed by Sandra who’s a very friendly person! The apartment is as nice as described in the pictures, totally clean with a lovely bathroom and we had all the necessary we needed to have! At first the neighbourhood seemed just regular, but after spending some days in the area we are convinced that this is going to be the new ‘place to be’ in the future, certainly by night. Just give it a few more years. If you don’t want to meet any tourist, than Pigneto is the place where you have to stay. A café/restaurant you definitely need to visit is Café Necci, a lovely place where is it great to sit outside. During the day there isn’t that much to see in the area so we always went back to the city centre. As described you can easily take the tram just 100 meter from the apartment, which is very practical! It is definitely worth staying at this apartment, certainly if you don’t like the mass tourist places in Rome.
