Host: Ekaterina is a wonderful host. Her communication was timely and thorough. I did not have to take any initiative to reach out to her for check-in instructions. She provided that information in good timing and worked around my schedule. She also provided suggestions for the area via a google map prior to my stay. Unfortunately I did not meet her face-to-face but her staff Valentina met me in front of the apartment and she was extremely welcoming. She did a walk through with my husband and I, showing us the amenities and other perks in the apartment. The bottle of water, coffee and tea were also a nice touch.
Apartment: The apartment was extremely comfortable and had all the amenities that we needed. It was on the second floor so there weren't any complications to carry bags up the stairs. Its only one flight. The building is older but the furnishing and decor gave it such a modern yet contemporary feel. There was more than enough space for two people. It was a bit colder in the apartment at night but overnight it would warm up significantly.
Location: The location is simply amazing for walking around and exploring Rome. We were 25 minutes by foot to the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, and Colosseum. There was also a local bus and tram 5 minutes away. And it took us about 45 minutes to travel by train and then tram to the apartment. The Trastevere neighborhood has great restaurants, bars and gelato so you don't even need to travel far for those things. Restaurants are literally across from the apartment and less than a 2 minute walk. Because of how lively the neighborhood is, you can hear voices as late as 2am and as early as 8am. This wasn't major for us as the noise wasn't obnoxious. It's usually just people walking by and not hanging out near your window.
I would highly recommend the apartment.
