Giulia's apartment was meticulously clean and beautiful. Though we arrived when she was on holiday, she was perfectly accommodating and we easily found our way to her apartment. The apartment is located on a piazza in Testaccio that is close to many of the neighborhood's restaurants, bars, and the market (though many of these things are closed in August). Easy to get to and close to many different forms of public transportation, it was a great home base for us as we explored the city.
