Overall, I really liked this apartment. It's very big and modern and has a huge patio. The air conditioning was very nice too!

I do have one complaint though: After reading other reviews in which guests said that Francesca was very responsive and helpful, I was a little disappointed when we arrived. Other reviews said that Francesca met them, showed them everyone, and showed them how everything worked, and we did not get any of that unfortunately. She was not there to meet us, so when we arrived someone let us in (the cleaner I think?) but she didn't speak English so she just gave us the keys and left, so we didn't get any instructions about anything. So there were a few things that were confusing that we had to figure out on our own. For example, we didn't know that to get out of the gate, you have to press a button on the wall. We also didn't know that to get back into the gate, you have to press the key symbol before putting in the code. Also, when we tried to cook dinner we couldn't make the stove work for a long time. Then we realized that when the handle for the gas is pointing as "Closed", it actually means it is open! I guess it is labelled wrong. So we had it pointed the other way and were wondering why the gas wouldn't work, and finally I turned it to "Closed" and it started working. So that was a bit confusing! So, I was a little disappointed with the communication, and I was very surprised because the other reviews said Francesca was very helpful. So maybe she was just very busy that day.

I do feel bad complaining because for the most part I really did like staying there! I also really liked Trastevere. It's important to note that this apartment is not in the main part of Trastevere, so you will have to walk 15 mins. We didn't mind that too much though. As a home-base this is a good apartment, and it's also close to the train station so that was convenient for arriving and leaving.
