We stayed at Sweet's place in June 2017 for 4 days. The place is nice and is located in a very lively area of Trastevere. The house is clean and is well sized for 2-3 people. I've listed some pros and cons of our stay below which would have helped me make my decision about this place before I booked it. I suggest everyone read these before making a reservation.
Pros:
1. Location is great and right in the middle of a lively street in Trastevere. It is close to the taxi station so not a long walk with bags, etc.
2. Lots of restaurants in the area. There is also a Michelin star restaurant right around the corner. We didn't try because we didn't know about it but we should have done better research I guess.
3. House is clean and has all the appliances you need for a short stay.
Cons:
1. There is no air conditioning in the bedroom. This house is not ideal for Rome's summers which can get pretty hot. There is a fan in the room but no AC.
2. The ceilings are very low in the bathroom and living room. This did not bother us much but could be a problem for a lot of people.
3. Water from the bathroom shower gets out of the shower area. The shower head is quite low and not very convenient.
4. The mattress and the pillows are terrible. The owner needs to invest in better pillows and a better mattress. I'm not sure why these are so bad as the rent for this apartment was fairly higher for the area.
5. There are a lot of stairs to get to this apartment. And there are about 4 door locks to be unlocked and then locked before you get to the apartment. This is sort of inconvenient as there is no proper lighting for every door. Gets annoying when you have to do this in pitch darkness 2-3 times a day.
6. The owner had another lady check us in. The lady didn't really offer any tips or suggestions about the area and was not very helpful in general. Our experience would have been much better if the owner had a few recommendations or tips located in the apartment or even checked on us once during our stay.
Anyway, we had a decent stay. The place can be made a lot better. I don't think this was value for money in any sense as we paid more than USD 150 per night and there are plenty of other AirBNBs that are probably better and cheaper in this area.
