The location of and views from this apartment are incredible. But ultimately, we found that this apartment was not the right fit for us. This place is ideal for a couple or pair of travelers with a light load to carry, who don't mind a lot of stairs, are no taller than 5'10", and don't plan on doing much cooking. For us, at the end of our 3 week trip, hauling our huge suitcases up to this super vibe-y, bohemian penthouse loft, was just a bit more than we wanted to deal with. The apartment is gorgeous in the daylight with the windows open, but the wooden stairs to/from the bedroom and living room are tricky in the evenings and at night, as the apartment is not well-lit; I happen to be on the clumsy side, so I had a few run-ins with hot lightbulbs and some unfortunate slips on the wooden stairs.
All of that said, if you are looking for a cool place to hang out on the roof with a bottle of wine and some amazing snacks, this is the place for you. And the location in Trastevere really can't be beat. You're close to several bus stops, so getting around the city is easy. And there's no reason to go anywhere else in town for a great local drink or bite to eat. We ate within a 10 minute walk of this apartment every night and had super authentic cuisine, free of tourist-trap menus and price tags. A great place for the right travelers, unfortunately at the end of a long trip, we just weren't that perfect fit.
