A wonderful getaway from the city's business. Mariastella is a passionate and generous hostess! She waited for us after a miss-hap with flight schedules, welcomed us with fruits, snacks, and drinks and gave us great directions. The apartment is near a commercial area (sales of kitchen and house furnishings) but is very tranquil inside. A taxi ride (taxis respond to Uber calls in Rome--what a great solution!) can be 5-30 min, depending on traffic, to historic areas from the Vatican/Trastevere (west of the river) to Colosseum/Pantheon (east of the river). Things to note: summer schedules change in Rome some some nearby stores and restaurants were closed for us. Each room is an en-suite, 3 with showers, 2 with tubs, so it's something to think about, as well as mattresses, you get your pick from softer to firmer, which was located in the studio room (that can be rented separately) when we visited.
