The Airbnb is located in the lovely area of Trastevere!
The apartment is a nice 2 floor flat - for European size, is spacious with a bathroom and working kitchen. The bedroom and bath are on the upper floor. Being in Trastevere, you literally have rows of restaurants just outside your doorstep. For spending the day exploring Rome and being out on tours, it was nice to come back to relax and freshen-up before dinner. We had a few days to pick out the restaurants that we wanted to try, and were able to make reservations to a few saving on waiting time. The only down side of living by a busy street is the noise. As long as you keep the window shut, it will help cut down on the noise outside.
The Airbnb is nice located that you can walk to some of the major attractions - Campo Di Foire, Piazza Venezia, Jewish Ghetta, the Vatican. Otherwise,
Transportation to and from the major sites are easily accessible as well by bus or tram#8.
Birgitta was equally a wonderful host! When we arrived, she was in the apartment waiting for us with a bottle of wine. She was very helpfully with orienting us to the city and answering any of our questions as well as providing suggestions to restaurants in the area. After she left, we noticed she had left the fridge stocked with some beverages, provided us with fresh fruits and pastries for breakfast. As we were staying for a week, she would occasionally check in to see how we were doing throughout our stay. On the last day, she arranged to have a taxi pick us up and take us to the airport for our flight back to the US.
