Francesco is an excellent host, very responsive and communicative. The apartment was very clean when we got there, anything we needed was already there. Francesco was kind enough to hold our luggage as we got to the house early. Location wise the apartment is in walking distance from all major attractions. Even Trastevere, which is a 30 minute walk, was not a problem for us to walk and we did so almost every day. Never had to use a bus for anything, even the Vatican as we enjoyed our walk while sightseeing.
The neighborhood is very good with some bars and restaurants around that are worth a visit if you don't want to go far from the house.
Overall a very pleasant stay and would recommend it.
