Maria Luisa is a super sweet lady who made my boyfriend and I feel very welcome at her apartment. We enjoyed much privacy and a very clean space. Her granddaughter, Petra, was very helpful too, being on hand via text in case we had any questions in English. The location is nestled in a quiet area within walking distance of the Vatican and the Trastevere neighborhood. If you're keen on exploring where the locals like to spend their time, I highly recommend wandering around Trastevere! My favorite discovery was the Piazza di Santa Maria, where we found lots of bars and young people hanging out at the fountain steps. I just wish we could have stayed longer! <3
