I stayed at Filippo's little apartment for 12 days. And it was a pleasant experience. The biggest plus for this place is the proximity to the Bus station and metro station. It doesn't take more than 30 minutes to reach any of the major attractions if you plan your trip in a logical order. The park right next to the apartment is absolutely gorgeous! There are a lot of little boulangerie and other stores where you could get your groceries done in the neighborhood. The apartment itself is tiny, cozy and full of personality filled with a million books :p. Filippo was very kind and pleasant to have a chat with. He is willing to help with any queries you might have.
If you are on a budget and are planning to have a packed trip full of activities during the day, I would recommend this place. At the end of the day, you come to a bed that is super comfortable!
Finally, Merci beaucoup Filippo for hosting me :)
