Trastavere is an awesome place outside of the craziness of the city. No Gucci stores and tourist traps here. Very bohemian, hip, and amazing food all around. But still walking distance to the central sites in Rome. We only took a taxi to get to and from the train station with our luggage.
The place has a really nice rooftop terrace but unfortunately it was a little cold and windy for us to hang up there.
All in all and awesome stay!
