My boyfriend and I spent 5 nights in Luis' apartment in Rome. To begin- Luis was extremely helpful and was not difficult with our late arrival. (We had numerous problems at the airport and arrived 2 hours later than what we had planned) He waited for us until we arrived. He provided us with some recommendations for places to eat in Trastevere. He was also able to accommodate a night checkout considering we had to leave the house 7am the following morning.
The apartment is as pictured, a little bit rugged and quaint. But has all the amenities that you could need. Perfect for those that dont need to spend a lot of time in the studio but would like a comfortable place to unwind and rest in the evenings. We didn't use the kitchen very much (food in Italy is amazing) but everything was fairly clean. The bed was very comfortable although the stairs may be harder to navigate for elderly people. Bathroom is quite small and the shower is located right next to the toilet (a very danish bathroom!) The water heater doesnt last for very long (note: you must give the heater time to fill up again before a second person showering) The apartment is everything you need for a stay in Rome, everything was clean and functioning well.
The location was our favorite part- we walked EVERYWHERE... close to Piazza Navona and Praca de Fiori, Vatican and St Pedros Square, and even ancient Rome. Location is fabulous and you dont have the hefty price that apartments in Centro Storico will ask, The apartment is quiet but close to all the great (and greatly priced) restaurants in Trastevere and the fun bars that were filled with youngsters Thursday & Friday night. Our trip was fabulous and we'd be back to rent with Luis ANY TIME :) . Muchos gracias Luis, for being so helpful and kind and providing us with a comfortable place to stay.
