Alessandro was a great, friendly host, one of the best I stayed with via AirBnB. Highly recommended.
He made our journey in Rome as smooth as possible. When we had the bad surprise to see the metro network closed when we arrived from the airport, he promptly helped us with all the information we needed to reach his apartment via the bus network (as we wanted), and waited for us to arrive. He also gave us many useful informations about the places we can eat in the area, the department stores, the status of the subway network for the day we leave and the best places to spend the New Years Eve in Rome outdoors.
As we arrived on the Christmas Day and most stores were closed down, he had the nicety to welcome us with some basic food we can prepare for the evening, including a handmade pie.
The apartment corresponds entirely to the photos and the description, is spacious and clean. There is a clear intention to preserve some of the original elements of this old building apartment (like the doors, door knobs, kitchen sink, etc), which gives it an authentic touch.
Wifi is reliable. The neighborhood is calm and within walking distance to the subway (3-5 minutes) and the Vatican City (10 minutes)
