Alex’s place is perfect for stay in Rome. It has nice restaurants and cafeterias nearby. There is very good supermarket which very good for stocking up on bottle water ( 20 cents compared to 2 euros in city center. Location is close to SAN giovanni. Alex is an excellent host, he got his friend Roberto to pick us from the train station and drop us back the airport. He even got a doctor to the house when my wife got sick. He provided excellent suggestions for sightseeing and shopping in Rome. Will stay here again for sure.
