Gene is a wonderful host and the room was spacious. We slept well each night on a very comfortable bed. The patio off the bedroom was a nice treat and we enjoyed sitting outside with a glass of wine in the evenings. The location is great and the view of St. Peter's at night can't be beaten. Make sure to ask Gene for restaurant recommendations. Each place he suggested was excellent and the food was always delicious. Gene is very knowledgeable about the area and had recommendations for other museums to visit and things to do which aren't listed in the typical travel books.
