Lucio's home was the perfect place for our stay in Rome. Although the apartment is out of the tourist area, the metro literally runs under the building. We got a little turned around as we came out of the metro directly infront of his building and were too close to see the exterior. Once we got ourselves on track, the check in process was so easy. Lucio warmly greeted us, gave us water, and showed us around the apartment. He spent quite a few minutes explaining everything to us and helped with some tourist "tips" then left us on our own. There's a decent grocery store 5 min walk away, cafe on the street level, and an amazing restaurant for appitivo and pizza called Interno 93. There was a mess left by the person before us and when we messaged about it, Lucio was so apologetic and said he thought he had gotten it cleaned up. All in all, we wish we were able to stay here longer but he was booked sadly. If we come back to Rome, we will definitely try to stay at Lucio's apartment.
