Mario was a great host. A great example of this would be his flexibility to help us store our heavy luggage case temporarily after check out to ensure we did not have to haul it around Rome for half of a day.

The flat has lots of character and Mario has enhanced to this by decorating it out very tastefully. Amenities in the flat are even better than expected, in particular the speakers which can not only play in the flat but also on the terrace! The terrace has also been decorated out nicely and is well maintained.

Vitally important these days is a good wi-fi connection and the flat has this. Another strength is Mario has clearly outlined recycling within the block of flats so you can enjoy your holiday whilst doing your bit for the environment!

Would agree with a previous reviewer that it wasn't 100% clear in the description that the terrace isn't directly linked to the apartment but this is not a massive issue as it is only a short walk up a small flight of stairs. The terrace itself is spacious and quiet with picturesque views over the city. This is an outstanding feature it has over other properties in the same area.

It has convenient access to the city by day. By night it is surrounded by excellent bars and restaurants. We therefore found it to be a great location to conveniently retire to after dinner and drinks. Trastevere is the ideal location to enjoy Rome from and Mario's charming flat is the perfect place to stay.
