Daniela is very proud of her home as evidenced by its cleanliness, comfortable and up-to-date furnishings, modern appliances and what appears to be a recent renovation of nearly the entire apartment. The kitchen was well equipped with cookware, dishes, etc. An easy to use washer is located of the kitchen balcony, and two drying racks laundry detergent are provided. Both baths were beautifully tiled, with newer, high-quality plumbing fixtures. Adequate number of towels were provided as well as complementary shampoo, but bring/purchase your own soap. The beds were comfortable, and ample bedding provided. The apartment has four balconies, with the one off the living room providing a nice view of street life on Via Trastevere.
Daniel and her husband were very responsive to questions about train service and an issue we had with one of our power transformers (bring your own). She thoughtfully cleaned the apartment midway through our stay, and provides a binder of information on services, groceries, transportation, etc.
The flat is located on the southern end of Trastevere and the numbers 8 & 3 trams are a 1/2 block away. Using the tram and bus service is a great way to experience local life. It costs $1.50 Euro for 100 minutes of use. The tram takes about 10 minutes to get to "downtown." There are plenty of excellent carry out pizza places, restaurants, groceries, etc. Check out the huge market on Sunday mornings - antiques, flee market stuff and good deals on cashmere sweaters and scarves.
