This was our first time in Italy and Rome in particular. We were driving and need to park, so Mario met us outside and helped us find parking spot (which was very close to the building). Mario is a great host, kind and welcoming person. Met us with the present that we were enjoying with the dinner on his balcony overlooking the city :)
As we figured, Mario is a recognized artist and his apartment is a real museum or arts gallery - so many pieces of art everywhere! At the same time, everything is clean and organized. Building is in quiet neighborhood but just two minutes from the metro station - really convenient! Overall, great experience! Highly recommend!
