We had a rough start upon checkin; we were required to meet the host (for Italy requirements) so I told him we would meet him at 6PM, but he had interpreted that we would be arriving at the train station at 6PM. Since he doesn’t live nearby, we had to wait outside with our luggage for long time.
The place itself is very nice, and really well situated in Trastavere. There were cafes just a block away that we could have a leisurely breakfast at. For other meals we had tons of options to walk to at a very close distance. On one day when we ended our excursions at the Trevi Fountain, it was a very pleasant walk to get back, though it looks far on a map.
The apartment is well stocked, and even has a washing machine. One issue we found is only one of the bedrooms has A/C, so Giovanni was very kind in bringing us a fan to use to keep cool at night.
We loved the vibe of staying in this community as compared to staying in Rome itself, and would come back here again!
