Maurizio is an amazing host with a lovely loft in a very good location. From the start he is very responsive with answering our questions and always available to help or provide tips during the stay. He gave us a recommendation for a gelato place around the corner that was the best gelato we've ever had.

His flat is beautiful and clean. A very comfy bed and a clean bathroom. Outside, the balcony has an amazing view and is a perfect place to enjoy a beer or wine. We did not need air conditioning, his place has many windows and doors which you can leave open while sleeping and it's very well ventilated and refreshing. However, there will be a bit of noise from the street from cars/bikes in the early morning. Such is life in the city though and I feel you will still not get a better place with a beautiful view in the city.

Location is great as well if arriving by train to Roma Trastevere. Easy few minute walk in a safe area. Walking to Trastevere where restaurants are is easy and about 45 minutes. A very good location to be in and we always walked into the city. Of course there are trams and buses but we always made the walk and felt safe and comfortable doing it (as well at night along the river).

There is also a great wine bar just outside the apartment. I would definitely recommend you have the house wine with a meat and cheese platter. There is also a grocery store close.

I would highly recommend that if you arrive to Rome you stay with Maurizio for an easy and comfortable stay. Close to the train and a easy walk into the city. Stay away from tourist locations and enjoy the real life of Rome.
