Alberto was a wonderful, supportive and responsive host. He was happy to meet us although we arrived quite late in the evening due to a delayed flight.
The flat itself has a really interesting layout. It's a series of spaces semi-open to one another. So the living area is screened off from the bedroom area (no doors) and the bedroom is next to the kitchen and courtyard side entry.
The location is what makes this place one to consider for sure! It's just off of Via de la Pigneto where there are restaurants, bars, a market, etc. And the area in general, Pigneto is alot more fun and more laid back than the centre of the city.
There are two tram lines that stop very close by and take you to Termini and it's easy to move around from there. That said be wary of the buses, I think it was the number 81 that was continuously unreliable on time.
We discovered in Alberto's CD collection some of our favourite musicians, and were able to listen to them on the sound system which was nice.
My only comment would be on the bed sheets. The pattern / aesthetics are pretty old fashioned which contributes to a slight feeling of general worn-ness /old around the bed.
