This flat has a lot of character and is a fantastic location. We didn’t cook (as you are in the heart of Trastevere, so why?) but the kitchen was cleverly appointed. We appreciated also having a washing machine to do our laundry. The owner has good taste and the flat felt small but special in the way it was designed and decorated, which we appreciated.
Communications with the host and manager were quick and responsive. The manager helped us with the bags up several flights of stairs, so he went above and beyond!
We had problems with plumbing and the shower didn’t drain, which flooded the bathroom and had us trying to take away 6 inches of water late at night. Water stains on the floor seemed to suggest this was not a one time occurrence. We also got a note from the downstairs neighbor that we were two loud. We are an older couple so I’m not sure what we were doing - we assumed it was cleaning up water in the middle of the night - but guests must be mindful of a sensitive tenant below.
The television (which was actually an impressive screen with projector) didn’t work at all. Disappointing to have it there teasing you and not be able to use it.
Also, something to be aware of is the windows are single pane so offer no soundproofing. It gets very loud at night (there is a great wine bar across the street) and people gather to drink until the wee hours. We were only in the flat a couple of nights so we weren’t that bothered. But worth noting for light sleepers or longer stays.
As these are things that can be fixed, hopefully they are an anomaly for our experience and other can enjoy all the flat had to offer and a superb location!
