Giacinto's cottage was exactly as advertised. It was clean and comfortable. The kitchen had all the necessary supplies for our week long stay. The master bed was comfortable. The area is very quiet in the evening. We do not hesitate recommending his home as a place to stay while in Rome.
Giacinto kindly arranged for a car to pick us up at the airport and met us at the door on our arrival. Along with explaining how everything worked he had a guest handbook and maps of the area with helpful guides to some of his recommended restaurants.
The location of the cottage was perfect. It sits looking over Trestevere. It's a 10 minute walk downhill to the #3 and #8 street cars that will take you to most sights in Rome.
