Ilaria's apartment is really lovely - spacious, comfortable and tastefully decorated with everything you need for a holiday stay. Trastevere is a great area to stay in - it's easy to walk to all of the tourist hot spots by day, and for the evening there is a great selection of bars and restaurants. I would really recommend the area, and Ilaria and Roberto are fabulous hosts. They were both extremely friendly, helpful and thoughtful - Ilaria was very responsive in terms of answering emails and queries and Roberto had printed out a personalised guide book to Rome for us. We had a slight problem with the water boiler one day (nothing serious - it turned out to be low pressure due to the cold weather), which Ilaria fixed straight away during the day while we were out. Overall, it was a very good experience. The only disadvantage to the apartment is that it is noisy. There were people talking outside on the street between 1am and 3am most nights - even though Rome was freezing cold when we were there - as well as noisy mopeds frequently driving past and rubbish trucks clinking glass bottles early in the morning. Although the walls are very thick, there is no double glazing to keep out the noise, so we did have interrupted sleep quite a few nights. It's a lovely apartment, but I would not recommend it for light sleepers.
