Alessandro was a good host, and the studio was clean, quiet, and very conveniently located—just a couple of train stops from a lot of major attractions. The apartment was okay overall, but it's important to note that it's a very tight space—one definitely not suited for children or the elderly, due to the extremely narrow and steep staircase that connects its two levels. My partner and I are both young and fairly petite—both slim and just over five feet—but everything in the studio (most notably the tiny, diamond-shaped shower stall and miniature sink in the bathroom) still felt very small and cramped. We recommend the place if you don't plan on spending too much time in it, and don't mind the limited space and spotty Internet.
