Location: The flat is located 5min from the Roma Trastevere train station (~30min direct train ride from the FCO airport - very easy!). It is ~15min walk to the heart of Trastevere where a significant number of wonderful food options are located and it is under 5min walk from the flat to grab a coffee/pastry for breakfast. Most of the main “attractions” are located across the Tiber River and are >30min walk or much quicker Scooter/bike rental away. Additionally, a grocery store is ~5min walk away.
Checking-In: Very easy! Celeste has a nice video to explain how to open the doors. The flat has 2 doors - an exterior door you can bolt/lock and an interior door with a key lock and additional safety lock. Net/Net - very strong security (Patio additionally has a lock with additional door to secure).
Bedroom Area: The bed was comfortable (felt like a foam-type mattress) and the apartment was clean (floors/surfaces). The sheets on the bed/pillows were clean.
Bathroom: The bathroom was as pictured, however, the lights above the sink (4) did not work and an additional light was out on the ceiling. The supplied bottles of shampoo/etc are very small. If you are staying for a number of days, bring extra. During my stay, the hot water was not working one evening, but, Celeste as able to reply quickly via text with a response for me to fix and regain hot water.
Kitchen: Generally as described, however, the apartment did not have a set of wine glasses. Glassware is available under the TV. The stove/Fridge work well and there is a tea kettle to use on the stove. No coffee pot was out for use (see “location” for coffee options). The breakfast provided were two sweet rollers in packages and 2 small fruit drinks. Tea packets were available.
Patio: Very nice and bright but also offers nice shading. The lights are also done well so you can enjoy in the evening. However, the cushions in the photos are not as pictured - during my stay there were very thin brown cushions without back cushions.
Overall, the apartment was a nice landing spot to tour around Rome and enjoy quiet downtime on the patio. Celeste was accommodating for my early arrival and fixing the water issue when it raised.
