Giovanni's flat truly is in the heart of Rome. My husband and I were able to walk to all the major sites (Colloseum, Vatican, Trestevare, etc.) The apartment was right off a main section with shopping and restaurants, but it was never so noisy that our sleep was disturbed (and I'm a light sleeper).

Giovanni was extremely responsive to any questions we had leading up to our trip, and even though he wasn't in Rome for our arrival, we had no logistical issues meeting up with a friend of his to pick up our keys and check in. We would definitely stay here again.
