This place is located in an area where there are many restaurants, coffee bars and people. The place its self was very clean and cozy for a couple wanting some time together, it had everything we needed. The area does not look like its safe because of the graffiti by it was actually very safe, many people are around the are because of the place, its called Trastevere and its known for a wide selection of places to eat and may shops. Be ready for lots of walking and make sure to wear comfortable shoes the streets are made of cobblestones. This place is located very close to all the happening spots but not so close that you are bothered or affected by the all the people there. This place is a just about 200 feet from were all the shops and restaurants are at and about a 5 minutes walk to all transportation stops as well to get you to the touristic places. The host Gianluca was very accommodating with us in our changing arrival time, he was able to change our scheduled meeting time and met us at the apartment. One thing to caution you about if you drive into the city and that is there is no real parking area close to the apartment but Gianluca will tell you about a place you can go and park the car. I regret renting a car in Rome, it's much better to either walk or use public transportation to get you around the sites. Overall, my wife and I were very comfortable here and we would stay here again if we ever comeback to Rome. Thanks to Gianluca for being a great host and for all the tips on where to go and how to get there.
