Francesco was great- we got in from the airport at 3am because our flight was delayed, and we asked him if he could pick us up for 20 euro. Lo and behold, an hour later he was there and we saved big on the 60 euro taxi ride there. It was amazing hat he came to pick us up so late at night! He's a fun guy and speaks enough English, Spanish, Italian, and other languages to get along well with.

As for the room- the place is not in a posh neighborhood by any means, but it's a direct 1/2 hr tram ride away from the center (the tram stop is just a block away) so it doesn't get much more convenient. Our room was very spacious, with extremely comfortable beds lofted on a second level (watch your head!), a desk, chairs, and even piano and guitar (which we were too busy to use). They have a cute and well trained dog that we loved to play with.

Do be aware that sometimes the inhabitants smoke, but I'm sure if you ask them not to they'll oblige. Overall we had a great experience with Francesco who was very fun and welcoming!
