We very much appreciated that Colette and Raffaele came downstairs to meet us and helped carry our luggage up to the apartment and shared so much information with us about things to see and do during our stay in Trastevere. We were very comfortable in the apartment and loved that it was so quiet inside no matter how busy and loud it was outside! Friday and Saturday nights were wild and crazy, throngs of people everywhere, but once inside the apartment we really couldn’t hear much at all, even with the bedroom door open to the terrace. It was quite surprising that it was as quiet as it was and we loved having the door open and having fresh air during the night. The private terrace was an added bonus! We appreciated the fruit, bread, cookies, tea and everything else that was waiting for us upon arrival.
The location is ideal, it wasn’t far to walk to all the sites everyone wants to see while visiting Rome. We did wander up to the Trevi Fountain and Pantheon but, after spending several days in Rome last year and visiting all the famous places, this time we spent most of our time wandering Trastevere and immersing ourselves in the local lifestyle. If we ever return to Rome we’d definitely want to stay at Colette’s apartment again. Thanks to Colette and Raffaele for making our stay such a positive experience!
