Staying at Giovanna´s was the best we could wished for. Starting with a warm welcome at our late arrival she showed lots of hospitality during our 4 day stay in Rome. Even though she was stuck in work she helped with route finding and planning our day trips and alway had time for a little chat on her beautiful terrace. A lot of small details (coffee, tea and cookies for our convenience, flower arrangements, furnishing of the apartment) made our stay as relaxing as possible. Some reviewers complained about the long distance from "Pigneto Quarter" to the city center - it´s less than 4km, so no big deal to walk and the public transport is great. So no need to complain. The general traffic conditions in Rome are on another sheet :)
We loved the quarter pretty much - away from the crowded city center there were lots of very good trattorias, restaurants, bars and an everyday market with fresh fruits and vegetables.
If we ever come back to Rome this would be our first address.
