Our stay in Carla's apartment was our first ever Airbnb experience . We could have not been any more fortunate than to choose Carla.
First , keeping in touch with Carla was very easy , she is readily available . She helped us with getting from the airport to her flat even when our flight was significantly delayed ; her daughter Carolina waited for us and gave us a helpful tour of the area and the local restaurants .The apartment is in a beautiful area of Trastevere which is the older part of town , quaint and historical. The apartment itself is lovely , with a living room, bedroom , small fully equipped kitchen and bathroom. There is a washing machine which we certainly appreciated. We were greeted with a plate of cookies and fresh fruit .
The location is ideal for walking everywhere ; we walked easily to the Vatican, Pantheon, etc. There are a number of wonderful small restaurants around , our favourites were Enzo's and La mani in pasta( reservations strongly recommended) . The street itself is quiet at night and the very large windows are double and block any potential noise completely.
Carla was reachable immediately and we kept in contact throughout our stay . She texted everyday to make sure we have everything we need and to ask if we need any help.
We absolutely and unequivocally recommend her apartment as a true home away from in Roma ! Grazie Carla!
