We had a great time while staying at Marco's. He was there to greet us when we arrived and provided all of the information that we needed. It is definitely one of the most centrally located spots in Rome you can get. We walked everywhere. An added bonus was that they were filming a movie or tv show on Marco's street, so every night we got to watch the filming live on set. The bathroom is certainly "unique" for an American and what we know, but it is functional. Thank you, Marco!
