Marco made us feel very welcome.It was wonderful to have a host that could speak English. He was very keen to help us with directions to the tourist attractions. The room was comfortable. From the balcony you can see the fountain and area with many restaurants.
Its what we expected. The security downstairs was great.
Neighbourhood safe enough. Just had to watch the paths for large gapping holes. The nearby train station/ metro always had lots of police on hand and people were friendly and wanted to help if we were looking at a map.
