Giancarlo is a brilliant host. Very friendly, he can communicate pretty well with limited English (better than my Italian!) and more complicated things through his friend Tony who speaks excellent English. No question was too trivial! Giancarlo and Tony are always really helpful. Giancarlo waited for us when we arrived even though the taxi driver got totally lost and it took ages to get from the airport! Tony was terrific and when I called him spoke to the taxi driver and gave directions. Maybe it’s a good idea to get the private car that’s offered. It’s hard for a taxi to get into the street and it drops you nearby. The apartment is great, small, but efficient use of space. It has everything you need. Very comfortable bed. The kitchen is well stocked with all utensils, fridge, freezer. There is even a washing machine. There is great airconditioning too. And the building has a lift!! Such a blessing after a long day and sore feet. The location is really good. Easy walk everywhere. And the street is lovely and quiet. I would recommend the Ristorante Montevecchio right there in the little piazza nearby, for its food, friendly staff and great ambience. I would happily stay at Giancarlo’s place again next time in Rome.
