Massimo's apartment in Trastevere is beautiful, spacious, and in an ideal location. There's a tram stop about a minute from the apartment that takes you to Campo de' Fiori, or further to Piazza Venezia. The apartment is also within walking distance (20-30 min) to many squares, the bridge across the Tiber River, and lots of restaurants.
Massimo met us at the apartment right when we arrived. He gave us several suggestions for places to eat, some of which became our favourite meals. There was a vase of flowers, slippers, and a cake! Such a warm welcome.
Our flight back to Vancouver was very early in the morning (before the first train from Roma termini) and Massimo arranged for a car to get us to the airport.
We look forward to staying there the next time we visit Rome.
