Giancarlo was a friendly and professional host. We didn't meet in person but he communicated well and made sure everything went smoothly during our stay. His friend Stefano met us at the door and helped us settle in. We were also able to leave our bags after checking out and got help ordering a taxi to the airport :) The apartment is spacious and is located only a few minutes walk from the Colosseum. There are restaurants and supermarkets nearby as well as a metro stop which is useful for visiting sights further afield and beating the midday heat.
