We stayed at Luca's place for about a week in January. The location is fantastic for access to all of the city via the Metro station at Cavour, just a short walk from the apartment. The place was very clean and tidy and felt secure. As others have noted, there is a bit of morning bustling at the school across the street, so if you're a night owl this might not be your first choice. 7:30 seems to be the time when traffic picked up. overnight was very quiet in the building and on the street. The local scene at Piazza Santa Maria dei Monti was super friendly and we were welcomed like locals. We would return to Luca's place.
