We spent a month in Maria's apartment in Trastevere and it couldn't have been more wonderful. Maria was the perfect host and always available to answer our questions, and her housekeeper Silvana in absolute delight who was on hand whenever we needed her. For this of you have visited Rome before and for those who are visiting for the first time, you could not ask for a better location. Although the tram stop is outside the front door, we never used it as we walked everywhere; everything seemed to be in reach within 30 minutes. We also ran along the river each day, which is again just a few minutes up the road. We can't wait to return to Rome and will definitely book to stay here on our next visit,
