We've had a great stay at Giovanni's place. There is nothing, absolutely nothing we could complain about. Apartment is large, wonderfully quiet, clean, well equipped. Giovanni not only left us with kitchen packed with food, but also shared a bottle of great wine on our arrival. And he provided us with wireless connection: he'd voluntarily bought new router for our convenience. Area is safe, clean, 100-200 m from many restaurants and bars. Supermarket + local market are also in the area. Well connected with rest of the city (Metro, tram). I would definitely stay at Giovanni's home again and I do recommend it, if you're unsure.
