My husband and I had a wonderful stay here for our honeymoon August 2021! The flat is beautiful and feels like luxury. Hosts were very quick to respond, and even had the room cleaned and ready for us early which we appreciated so very much.
PROs: clean, beautiful artwork, spacious, large shower, hot water, two sinks, blow dryer, full kitchen with all necessary utensils, large closet, blackout curtains, large screen TV, comfortable bed and soft pillows, extra blanket provided, secure safe, very close to bus/metro/train station, many good restaurants available within 10min walk.
CONs: a bus stop is located directly outside the flat doors (this is great if you plan to ride the bus) but it can be rather noisy with the traffic especially early morning, the air conditioner is only in the bedroom so if you close the bedroom doors the rest of the flat can become rather stuffy and hot, you have to walk up several stairs to get to the flat and the lift is very small I would not recommend for anyone with disability as accessing the flat would be rather difficult.
Notes: They did provide soap, shampoo, hair nets, toilet paper, towels, and trash/recycling bins. No one ever entered to make the bed, take out trash, or change out towels during our stay - I’m sure if you request this service it can be done but this was not a necessity for us given our length of stay so was not an issue/concern for us. The shower floor is slippery just be warned - you’ll want to place a towel on the floor of the bathroom as the drain setup is a little off so the floor can become very wet (also the fan shuts off automatically). There is a nice blow dryer included in the bathroom with heat settings and pointed nozzle attachment so you don’t have to bring your own! There is no coffee machine but there is an espresso kcup machine however the cups provided did not taste very well we used this once when we decided to sleep in and skip the cafe but would not recommend. Even though this is very close to bus/train station if you plan on eating in trastevere a lot (like we did) it is still a long way to there - I wouldn’t recommend if you plan on spending a lot of your holiday in this area as you’ll end up spending a lot of time on buses or a lot of money on Taxis (there are good restaurant substitutes nearby however if you’re willing to change plans). Most of the must-see areas in Rome are within a 30minute walk just make sure you’re willing and able to make this trek or work in bus time/taxi fees to get to everywhere you plan to go - it was 100 degrees when we traveled so we ended up spending up a lot on taxi fare in order to get to places more quickly than bus/train (which can sometimes take longer than walking) as we did not want to spend so much time in the heat. Also keep in mind this is located in Termini area of Rome, very convenient, but also probably one of the most dirtiest areas of Rome especially right around the station. Overall, we were very happy with our stay and I don’t think we could have selected a better place to spend our honeymoon! 5 stars for everything but location, and even then we overall felt location was worth 4 stars.
