Alonso's place is simply fantastic and he's a great host that takes all the extra steps to help make your stay perfect. He is at your service 24/7 providing transparent communication - phone, email, text etc. The apartment has everything including a kitchen if you are the type that prefers to cook small healthy meals rather than eating in restaurants. At the very least a blend between home cooked meals and the occasional meal out, Alonso's place provides this option. Everything inside the apartment is new and therefore very clean and tidy. Access to every major site in Rome is a few steps away by the metro or, many sites are also accessible by walking. The Vatican and the Vatican Museum is at your door step with access to the Sistine Chapels which in my opinion are locations that must be seen when in Rome. Conveniences such as speciality foods and groceries or the desire for an evening gelato or capucinio are also close by. Overall, I would rank Alono's place a 5 star choice and would stay there again when in Rome. Good luck with your travels and enjoy ROMA! CIAO!
