The apartment was very easy to reach from the airport and was a short bus ride away from Trastevere Station. Lauro was out of town so his father met us at the apartment. It is located in the quieter part of Trastevere which suited us perfectly. There are a few bars and restaurants around but it is a very residential neighborhood. The busy social part of Trastevere is a short 10-15 minute walk away. The apartment is also very close to the historical center, and, besides a trip to the vatican city, we explored the city entirely by foot. Truly an ideal location. The apartment is basic but clean and very spacious with two bathrooms. The kitchen was functional and the seating a little tight, but we spent most of our evenings out and about. Internet at the house was very useful indeed and everything was functional and comfortable. We had no occasion to contact Lauro's father but he made it clear that if we needed anything at all to contact him. Overall this is an excellent and comfortable place to stay and a truly ideal location from which to explore the center of Rome.
