We rented the apartment for 6 weeks while teaching at nearby John Cabot. The location is fantastic, in a quite area of Trastevere with great access to public transportation and walkable to a lot of the big Rome attractions. The kitchen was very functional, well equipped and had basics like spices available. The bathroom was clean and very serviceable. If you are visiting Rome in the summer you will appreciate the three air-conditioners; we only needed to run one at a time. The apartment is on third floor (walk up); most of the units in the apartment seemed to be residents and so were always quite. There is a roof-top terrace where we enjoyed a few meals overlooking the city. Maria was always very prompt in responding the the few questions we had. She arranged to have someone come in once a week to tidy up, change the linens and towels. I feel that we made a great choice staying at Maria's and would recommend this apartment to anyone who is thinking of visiting Rome.
