Gianluca's brand new place was a super clean, comfortable and spacious apartment in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of shops and restaurants nearby to choose from. The location was so awesome, close to the Vatican and transportation to other city attractions. Gianluca was so very quick to respond to our questions, helpful and a genuinely really nice guy! He knew so much about the area because he grew up close by and you could tell he is very proud of his neighborhood. The apartment had everything you could want, and even though our stay was a short 3 nights, it seemed that with everything that is provided in the apartment, a longer stay would be ideal--so much better than a hotel! When we come back to Rome, we are staying at Gianluca's place!!
