Gianluca's place is great. It is an apartment with a common area, and he really puts in effort to make you feel at home(i.e. milk, juice, etc in the fridge). The room is clean and comfortable, and the location is very convenient. It is 5min walk away from Termini and we often walked to attractions (i.e. colosseum) or took the metro from Termini. There are many restaurants and shopping nearby if you know where to go. The street the apartment is on is a bit dark and quiet at night so I would suggest not coming back too late at night. Overall it is great value for money, Gianluca is a nice host, and this is definitely one of the best places to stay in Rome.
