Fabrizio and his wife Fabiola are very nice hosts. They respond immediately to questions and are very helpful in providing information about the area and transportation. The apartment has a very pretty courtyard garden area that is great for dining or just hanging out reading a book and is extremely well stocked with olive oil, snacks, spices, etc. The apartment also is within a 3-6 block walk of buses, trams and the subway, so easy to access the rest of the city, or you can walk out the door and about a block over to an arterial street and just wave down a cab. While we were in Rome it was unseasonably hot and Fabrizio was kind enough to bring over fans which made sleeping very comfortable. They were great hosts!
