Alex was extremely helpful and encouraging from the moment I arrived at the apartment at 1:30 in the morning. The room was spacious and the bed comfortable for my three-month stay which was pretty much all I needed. Monteverde is a wonderful neighborhood without too many tourists and excellent restaurants throughout. I would highly recommend staying at Alex's apartment for all those stopping by Rome to briefly enjoy its fantastic architecture, culinary delights, and rich historical heritage. Alex's apartment is located near the train station and it is only a 20 minute walk to Trastevere, the popular neighborhood next to Monteverde.
