Giuseppe’s place is within walking distance to a ton of fabulous restaurants and bars. Augustarello is not to be missed! For my fellow gluten free/celiac folks, there are a couple of restaurants offering tasty options nearby as well. Try the gelato to the left and around the corner of the apartment. Gluten free, dairy free, sugar free, soy free - SO FLAVORFUL! A perfectly light and delicious dessert to have as you walk back home from dinner.
Giuseppe’s place is close to the metro, so you can easily navigate within Rome. We preferred to walk everywhere, and even that wasn’t bad. It’s about a 40-45 minute walk to the Colosseum and the Vatican. Otherwise, there’s also an app called “mytaxi”. If it’s too hot to walk or you’re running behind schedule, it’s a fraction of the cost of an Uber.
The apartment itself is great. The pictures really don’t do it justice. It is sparkling clean. There is a TON of closet and storage space. The WiFi is excellent and the outdoor space is HUGE. There’s a washer, which is always so convenient, and all of the other household necessities (coffee maker, cups, plates, silverware, pots, etc.). You can comfortably fit four people, six if you don’t mind sharing a small bathroom. Speaking of bathrooms, the water pressure and temperature is great. If you do travel in a group, no worries about running out of hot water!
The building and area are safe. Giuseppe’s place is on the first level, after a few stairs. The neighbors are friendly and the area is pretty quiet despite being in the heart of town.
Trastevere is one of the best neighborhoods to stay at in Rome. Giuseppe’s apartment delivers in all the ways that matter. You won’t be disappointed!
