Francesco's place is awesome. We arrived a couple of hours earlier than our check in time and he let us check in with no problem. He was away at the time arrived but the concierge from the building was expecting us and his lovely daughter was there to open the door and show us around. There were snacks and breakfast available. Maps with attractions of the city and restaurant recommendations as well. The room is very private and it even has a cute little balcony. The location is great, it is about 5 mins walking to the Vatican and 2 minutes walk to the metro. Super accessible. At the end of our stay we had problems booking our next destination and Francesco was super nice by allowing us to stay an extra night to accommodate us. If we are ever back in Rome we will definitely stay with Francesco again and we will be sure to send all of our friends his way.
