We were not able to meet Giusi during our trip. However, her friend provided all the details about the place and made sure we were situated. Her friend was attentive to our concerns (the shower door was loose) that were noticed of the place when we arrived. She arrange for repairs. Giusi's place was really close to the Vatican and to public transportation making it easy for us to explore Rome. There was also a super market a few doors down from the apartment, which was very convenient (the employees were friendly and helpful with us). The weather in Rome during our stay was hot and humid, and the AC in the apartment helped us cool down. A plus about the apartment was that it was quiet during our stay, which helped us get the sleep needed to regain our energy after long days of exploring the city.
