My partner & I had been flying for 22 hours, so we were pretty buggered when we got to the apartment at about 9am.
Paolo was a true champ by getting the apartment clean for us (even though check in was not until after 2pm).

The apartment is at the southern end of Trastevere, so a good 15 minute walk to the main cobbled area where everyone gathers for food & stalls selling all sorts of bric a brac. The balcony a true delight, shower with excellent water pressure, area very quiet, great mattress. excellent air con.

What we enjoyed is that the grocery store, cafe, gelato bar & a good restaurant (Osteria Pistoia) all downstairs, & the bus stop 5 mins walk.
If you walk south to the Ponte Testaccio (about 5 mins) this takes you to another very hip area called Testaccio with very good restaurants, beautiful tree lined streets. Ketumba was a great restaurant.

Thanks Paolo, hope to see you one day in Sydney ;-))
