We are three friends who travelled together to Rome and enjoyed the location in Trastevere a lot. Although the apartment is on the main road it is still quite tranquil. One gets a good exercise walking up the steps so you better be good by foot. There are plenty of restaurants and the piazza di Santa Maria with the beautiful church is close by. I guess it took us about 30 Min by foot to get to the capitoline hill. Franco was very forthcoming and helpful with everything. Great time!
