This Airbnb was exactly what we needed for our family. We are a family of five, my husband, myself, and children 3,6, and 10. This was our first international trip and the apartment had all of the amenities we needed to cook dinner for our children and enough space to keep them occupied in between outings. That being said, we have a lively bunch and it was stressful having the kids in another person’s apartment worrying about their noise and breaking things. When the kids needed to run around, there is a playground only steps away; it was a wonderful convenience. Additionally, we used the market and cafe daily. The location was perfect and we got to have both a local experience and walk to the sights (15-20min with kids).
Other tips for this airbnb are:
-Find the laundrymat and plan your wardrobe accordingly if going in the rainy season because there is no dryer. (It was fine, we knew it going in to it, but we underestimated how dirty the kids clothes would get.)
-Pull up a chair to the kitchen window in the morning, have your coffee, and watch the people.
-As others have mentioned, the Trastevere area is not quiet. On most nights we could hear bars letting out until 1am and you can hear the market and shops setting up in the morning. We got used to it and it wasn’t so bad with the shutters, windows, and blackout curtains closed. I used a white noise app on my phone and it helped.
-The spaghetti restaurant right downstairs was good and convenient.
Flavia was exceptional at communication and responsiveness. Her place is stylish, clean, and located on the 4th floor with a working elevator. She was kind and even offered to watch our daughter for an evening, which we unfortunately did not get around to doing. Overall, this was a great experience. Book here, you wont regret it.
