Franco was the perfect host! We met him at his apartment and he gave us a binder of helpful information including phone numbers of his children if you can't reach him and excellent restaurant recommendations. His apartment was also impeccably clean and very spacious. The bathroom is large - a rarity in Italy! He also left bottled water and beer for us in the fridge. The air conditioning was also a rare luxury that we really appreciated in the summer heat. The location of the apartment is also very conveniently located with cafes and restaurants right next door and the historic center just about a 10 or 15 minute walk away. We would definitely stay here again!
