Marco's apartment is ideally located in the city's historical center: not only are you in the middle of the action, a few minutes from Piazza Navona, on a charming cobbled street, but the Vatican, the Colosseum and the Trevi Fountain can all be reached in less than 30mins! Marco, who speaks a very good French, is extremely welcoming and accommodating. Plus he is kind enough to think of a few little presents that will make a stay at his apartement even more enjoyable (I loved the biscuits!). Be aware that the old building can be quite noisy, though, and that the internet connection tends to be capricious - which is something that may be common in Rome anyway.
