Marcello's place was as described. it was clean and I'm a neat freak and I was very comfortable there. He was super responsive, as when I arrived I was so tired I couldn't figure out how to get in, but he answered right away and eventually, I managed. He was also available if I needed anything, let me know where extra toilette paper was, etc. I met him one day as he was there having the boiler changed and he was super sweet in person as well, and so apologetic that the water would be off for a tiny bit...not a big deal..And as far as water goes good pressure in the shower and hot water lasted. The area can be noisy at night as there are three bars just outside, but for the price, location & host some noise can be dealt with. I am a single female and I felt safe. And everything is within walking distance, the only time I took the bus was coming and going with luggage. The area is fabulous. some good restaurants as well: grano granis, Ristorante Pizzeria Italia, not Ego..
