Alessandro's apartment was a perfect starting and end point for my daily trips to Rome's various attractions and highlights. The Testaccio neighbourhood radiates an honest, relaxed atmosphere, and makes you feel at home very quickly. Well-connected bus stops are just around the corner, as well as down-to-earth trattorias and restaurants, gelaterias, and supermarkets. Aventin, Palatin, Colosseum, and Trastevere can be all reached afoot in less than half an hour.

Alessandro and his friend in Rome, who was the contact person on-site, were very obliging and helpful. The clean and tidy apartment offered all necessities (kitchenette, fridge) and some nice extras (AC, WiFi, TV). I can unconditionally recommend Alessandro's apartment!
