Description:
Testaccio is an intriguing part of the city whose name derives from the 'Monte Testaccio'; a mound of broken clay pots (amphorae) which were stacked here in ancient times and upon which the neighbourhood was built. The area therefore contains much archeological evidence of everyday life in ancient Rome, and many bars and restaurants have been built into the hillside to allow visitors to view the underground remains. Nowadays Testaccio is a very typical Roman neighbourhood, famed for its nightlife. There is also a fantastic fresh farmer's market every morning between Monday and Saturday, and the area's restaurants are commonly thought to be the best representatives of true Roman cuisine. Balassi puts you right in the heart of this vibrant area and is a wonderful apartment for visitors looking for something off the beaten track. Still centrally located and just a short hop over the Tiber river to the popular Trastevere area, the large, well equipped studio is also surrounded by buses and the metro system which will take you far and wide across the city. When you want to relax, the apartment's ample balcony is perfect for appreciating the wonderful views of the Roman skyline in summer while the cute fireplace will warm you up in the cooler months.
