We were looking forward to our first visit to Rome and we were not disappointed. Ilaria was very easy to communicate with prior to our trip especially when we changed our arrival time. Unfortunately we didn't get to meet Ilaria during our trip, she had her son Edoardo meet us at the check-in. A very funny guy.

The apartment was huge with every thing we needed. Trastevere does get a little noisy at night but hey that's to be expected.

Although the apartment did not have wi-fi, every bar and cafe in the area has free wifi so sit down have a beer and a snack and check your emails.

Besides the taxi to and from the station, we walked everywhere; Vatican City is only 20 minutes, Colosseum and Roman Forum is 30 minutes.

After walking past the big hotels and tourist areas we knew we made the right choice to stay here.
