Franco's place was a gem of a find! He was such a hospitable host and checked in to make sure we were ok and inquired if we needed anything. The location is about 10 min walking from the collesium and a 5 min walk from the metro. Also, walking distance to some lovely restaurants. It's great! It can get a little loud at night because of the cars and other patrons living there, but it is fine enough to sleep through. Would definitely recommend.
