The host: The host was waiting to greet us when we arrived at the flat, was very friendly and spoke good English. He ensured we had everything we needed, and made sure we had a phone number to call if we needed anything. He also went out of this way to help us find luggage storage when we mentioned we were flying out late on the checkout day.

The flat: The flat was amazing, the pictures really don't do it justice. It's very spacious, the kitchen is fully equipped (although lacks an oven - the microwave possibly doubles up as one but we didn't try), the bed is very comfy, the shower is great and terrace is lovely (half covered if it rains). It's also very quiet inside.

The area: It's right in the middle of Trastevere, there is loads of nice bars, restaurants and pizzarias on the doorstep. It' very close to the river, tram and bus stops and the river. We walked everywhere (we like walking). Pantheon: 10-15 mins, Forum: 25 mins, Vatican: 20 mins. We really enjoyed it. Trastevere felt very safe, and is very quaint.

All in all, highly recommended!
