My boyfriend and I stayed for one week at Francescos apartment. The apartment looks like in the photos and is really cozy and comfortable furnished. Because the apartment is in the 3rd floor it was a little bit hot when the temperatures reached 29°C or more outside. In this case there is an A/C you can use. Because the A/C was a little bit loud during the night, we left it on over the day, so the apartment was cool when we arrived in the evenings. We used the “fan only” option while sleeping and that worked perfectly fine. Francescos TV receives a lot of channels so if you like to hang out at the evenings there is always a good movie playing. The kitchen is very well equipped and everything you need for cooking is available. In case you don't want to cook, there are some restaurants and street food carts nearby. Groceries can be bought at various supermarkets right around the corner (5 min walk). The subway which takes you right downtown is also reached in 2 min. For example, it took us about 20 minutes from the apartment to the Time Square. The subway is departing nearly every 5-10 minutes so you can just go outside and won't have to wait long.
Even we did not meet Francesco in person, he helped wherever help was needed and responded very quickly via text. Overall, we can recommend staying at this apartment and would book it again.
