We stayed at Laura's apartment for a 4-day trip to Rome. We were newbies to the city and the apartment is so perfectly placed for eating, drinking and exploring. We ate twice for dinner in Trastevere, once on our first night and once on our last night. It's also lively in the daytime - we enjoyed a breakfast and lunch there too! You can find a delicious restaurant on every street close to the apartment. Our favourite in the immediate area was Ombré Rosse which is about 5mins walk from the apartment - their pasta is the best we had in Rome! There are lots of wine bars and places to drink including two pretty squares in the vicinity. It can be buzzing at night but certainly not in a distracting way - we slept very well each night! Though the apartment is on the second floor, the staircases are short and it's very easy to manoeuvre with suitcases. The only downside is not having a balcony but there are very few places with balconies in Rome and it's a good reason to go to one of the many piazzas to soak up the sunshine.
Laura met us promptly and gave us a clear run-through of the apartment, including tips of where to go. We walked everywhere during our stay. We took a taxi to and from the airport - Laura can arrange an airport transfer for €50. We got a meter taxi on the way back and it cost €48 so very similar. There is a taxi rank on the main road by Piazza Trilussa. Our only notes on the apartment were the lack of wine glasses - we used the tumblers provided but certainly would have been nice to have proper glasses to use! Everything else was very clean and well equipped.
The apartment is small and simple but for a short stay to Rome, it's ideal. We would definitely recommend it.
