This was our first time in Rome, so we hoped for a good, comfortable base for our sightseeing. Chiara's apartment is in a cute building on a quiet side-street in Trastevere, and as soon as she greeted us in her beautiful home we knew we'd made the right decision!
The apartment was spotless and super-chic with plenty of space and great amenities- tea and coffee, towels, an iron and wardrobe space were all readily available, and the shower was hot and reliable. All important things for us!
The best feature is the location- there was no need for public transport as we were walking distance from ALL the main tourist attractions. The area of Trastevere is also buzzing- lots of cool restaurants and bars and an exciting mix of people! It did mean there was a little noise at night, but it didn't go on late and was far enough away to ensure we got a good sleep (which was particularly important for my pregnant wife!)
Chiara was a GREAT host- super-friendly, recommended places to eat and responded to messages quickly. We absolutely loved our time here and when we return this apartment will be the top of our list!
