Alessandro's Rome apartment is exactly what we hoped it would be. It was especially clean, convenient, and worked well for me and my family. The modern layout was rather unexpected, but fun. My only note for future renters (and it was not a concern for us) is the fact that the shower stall may be too tight for large people. Alessandro (Alex) is a great host, and he met us exactly when we agreed, and did a great job explaining the home and local area.
