Alessandro was such a great host - he picked us up at the train station when we arrived to Rome and he gave us tips on where to eat great carbonara (down the street from the apartment - try it, it's a dream!) cooked with the real italian "emotion".
The room is great (a bit hot in the summer heat) and spacious. I liked the residential vibe of the neighborhood and getting to the city centre is fairly easy. I highly recommend staying at Alessandro's place.
