This apartment is perfectly situated in Trastevere (a hip and happening area of Rome where locals and tourists mix). Our host arranged the taxi service from airport ($50euro but worth it after a long flight/jet-lag). The apartment is beautiful, spacious, and modern. The terrace is spectacular, not for the view, but just to hang out it in after a long day. The bathroom is excellent, shower was hot and great water pressure. The bathroom has a window and no curtain which made me feel a bit uncomfortable because I was worried neighbours would go out on to their roofs and be able to look in (never saw neighbours there but they have some plants on the roof which made me think they go up there sometimes).
Apartment is a short walk from fantastic restaurants and the river which had a very exciting, lively atmosphere at night. The Pantheon and Trevi Fountain are about 30mins walk from the apartment with a lot to see along the way. We walked everywhere! The Vatican is a short bus ride away and many bus routes pass along the Main Street which is about 2 mins walk.
There is a lift to this apartment but it’s super tiny. For good exercise, take the stairs!
The apartment was clean. The air conditioner worked extremely well and quickly. Kitchen was good but no microwave—we found creative ways to heat up our leftovers.
Host communication was excellent. We definitely recommend this apartment.
