This location was perfect for us. It had all the charm of staying in the Trastevere neighborhood while our host, Al, was extremely helpful and quick to respond whenever we messaged. He made local restaurant reccomendations, helped us find the local laundry mat(which is right around the corner), tips since we were traveling during the Christmas holidays, and even set up a shuttle van to take us to the airport.
The only thing I might warn travelers about is that this a busy, lively, neighborhood. There are a couple of bars just around the corner where a crowd can gather out in the street. You can hear them from the upstairs bedroom but it's very quiet downstairs. It wasn't that loud and wasn't really a problem but if you're a light sleeper, it's something to consider. Also the neighborhood felt very safe to walk around in, even late at night.
The actual location is a very short walk from most sites. We used Uber a lot and it was very convenient to have a car pick us up at the Piazza Trilussa which is just around the corner from the apartment.
Thank you for being a wonderful host, Al. We look forward to our next trip to Rome.
