We (mature couple) loved Sarah’s flat in beautiful Trastevere. So tasteful, comfy and a brilliant location. Check in had to wait half an hour on the steps – but from there on in perfect. Very secure entrance. The flat is on the 4th floor with lift and there are a couple of short flights of stairs to get to the lift. Then another short flight down ¬to the front door. Large living area with comfy sofa, beautiful old dining table and new TV – internet access only to apps like Netflix. AC works well and makes the room so refreshing as it was 28C every day. Nice floorboards too. Lamps everywhere. Super clean but had nice lived in feel.
Bedroom roomy with double glazed windows looking out onto the lovely street and blackout shutters. King bed really comfortable and there is a big, quiet ceiling fan. It’s a short residential street and down one end you find Cosimato Square where there is the daily morning market, 2 supermarkets and restos, gelato etc etc TIM shop for your Italian sim. In the evening families gather and kids run riot in the playground. It’s lovely. Walk around the corner and there is a shaded bus stop where you can take a variety of useful buses. Walk another 20 metres and you are on the main street where the 3 and 8 trams run. It is all so easy. Up the other end of the street is a beautiful walk to Janiculum Terrace with spectacular views.
The kitchen was lovely and had lots of condiments and equipment. Easy to cook in. Microwave too. The bathroom had a shower / bath combo which we found a bit tricky to negotiate as it was set a bit high but that was our only slight issue. Highly recommended and great value. Sarah booked us a car to get to Termini, on time and great price. Oh wifi great too. Thank you Sarah! x
