I stayed in this lovely flat for 6 months over the summer and I would highly recommend it to anyone wishing to visit Rome.

The flat really feels like home and has everything you could need for your stay. The building is probably the only building built in the centre in the last 10 years (based solely on walking around and seeing only old buildings), so it is very secure and quiet. Aircon works brilliantly (vital for the summer). The large terrace is a great extension to the apartment and the sofa bed is large and apparently comfortable (so say my friends).

Just outside the apartment on Sundays is the large market on via portuense. The colloseum can be reached on foot in about 25 mins, and buses, tram, train and metro are all nearby for wherever you want to go in the city. The main area of trastevere which is full of restaurants, bars and tourists is a short tram or 15 min walk away. The apartment is just outside this hectic area so much more peaceful. Testaccio which has a lot of Romes clubs, a great market every day, as well as nice restaurants is only a 10 min walk. Trastevere station is less than 10 min walk which will take you to fiumicino airport.

Francesca is a delight of a lady and makes an excellent host. Very good knowledge of the area and the best places to go and always helpful and flexible.

At the end of the trip I did not want to leave the flat, but if you get a chance to stay here I would definitely go for it.

Enjoy your stay in Rome :)
