Our stay at Alessandro's was all the way enjoyable. Alessandro is a very friendly person and spirit of a true artist. He did all his best to make us have a comfortable and easy stay at his apartment.
The rooms itself is really small, but you will be astonished of how all the amenities you would need is still available in this small space. It looks exactly like the photos and was really clean when we checked in.
The locations is a bit far from the center of Rome, public transportation is available right from under the building, and Alessandro will take the time to explain how to use it, but the time you spend commuting to and from the apartment will add up and somehow take from your time in the city especially if you are staying for a short while. you need to allow 30 minutes to an hour depending on the time of day for one way commute from or to the apartment.
The only problem that we had is that we couldn't leave anything charging while we were out of the room, because all of the power sockets shuts down when you take off the smart card which is attached to the apartment keys. We couldn't charge our power banks throughout our stay, but you can overcome that be bringing separate charger for each gadget to be able to charge them all overnight.
All in all, I do recommend considering Alessandro's rooms for your stay in Rome, it's a good deal and an opportunity to get to know a person worth knowing.
