The best aspect of this apartment is its location. There were many cafes, bakeries, restaurants, and groceries within a block, and many many more within Trastevere. The location is within walking distance of popular tourist sites, including the Vatican, Colosseum, Pantheon, Spanish Steps. We didn’t need public transportation or taxi at all in our 3 day trip to Rome.
The location however was a problem when sleep time came. It was quite noisy, from both late-night groups in the street and transportation vehicles. We are not fussy sleepers, but we were in and out of sleep all night long.
The apartment itself was clean and roomy, with mostly modern furnishings and a fully equipped kitchen. The building, containing several apartments, was in need of maintenance. There are two flights of stairs from the entrance to this apartment.
The host did not check in with us to see if we needed anything. However, she responded quickly when we contacted her by email. This is clearly a rental property, a business.
