Not much more to add here, other than that this is a great apartment in a perfect location. I really fell in love with Rome on this trip, and a big part was due to Daniele's apartment. Trastavere is Rome's lively, eclectic neighborhood just across the river from the more touristy spots. A 15 min. walk to the Forum and Colosseum and the Pantheon, maybe 20 to Vatican City. As others have mentioned, the noise is pretty bad at night, and not just the weekends. We arrived on Monday and Trastavere parties every day of the week. But wear earplugs and you'll be fine. Also, there is a washing machine and tons of great Rome guidebooks to supplement yours.

As far as getting there, we arranged with Daniele to get picked up, and a gentleman was waiting outside arrivals with our name on a sign. Very easy. That said, you could take the train to Trastavere Stazione for 8 Euro each, and then from there, take the #8 tram (outside the station, across the street - you'll see the tracks) north toward PZA VENIZIA about 5 stops. Get off right before you cross the bridge and then walk 5 mins to the apartment. At the very least, once you're more familiar with the neighborhood, I'd suggest taking that way back to the airport and save some dough.

Thanks Daniele and Ludovica! Looking forward to our next visit.
