Francesco was flexible with check-in and greeted us at arrival. The apartment is exactly as pictured here. It is very clean and very spacious, especially for Rome. Having an underground garage space provided was vital for our rental car. Keep in mind that the garage doesn't open until 6:30 AM so if you plan on any very early trips that require a car, you will want to plan ahead. There were only four of us staying in the apartment, but it could have easily accommodated another 1-2 people. The bedrooms have A/C, though we scarcely needed them for our late September trip. The best part about Francesco's place is the location. It literally takes 2 minutes to walk to the Colosseum. Francesco was a wonderful host, full of information, and passion for his city. We look forward to returning again some day!
