We stayed at Enrico's apartment for four nights in early August 2014 with my husband and 16month old son. Enrico wasn't there to meet us, but he kept in contact prior to and during the trip and had his housekeeper meet us there for check in without any problems. Our flight was delayed by over two hours and he was great with the flexibility as well.

The apartment is in an amazing location - Trastevere quickly became like home to us with the amazing views of Rome from the living room windows, the abundant cafés and restaurants and even a great little park and playground for our son. We had probably our best cup of coffee at a nearby cafe and arguably also the best gelato. Oh - and yes, our most delicious meal of pasta was also there too! So great food all around. There is also a fresh fruit/veg market in the piazza daily until afternoon and a supermarket close by too.

We were about a 1/2 hr walk to the Colosseum and also to Vatican City but no more than a 15 min bus ride away. Locally - There is an amazing lookout just five minutes walk from the apartment along with an old church that is said to be where St.Peter was crucified as well as a 5-10 min walk to The Basilica of Trastevere.

The apartment is very secure with a secure gate and door as well and we felt very safe. It's quite local but still with a number of tourists around which gave us a real feel for Italy.

The apartment is spacious with two bedrooms, fully functional kitchen and cooking basics, washer, great wifi and working air conditioning in every room. The only two things I would mention is that when trucks go by on the road below it does shake the living room a little, but it's fine. Also there is a bar right below at the foot of the building which can have some noise until quite late, but you cannot hear it from the bedrooms., so we slept peacefully.

Enrico was also very kind to provide us with a portacot for our son.

We truly enjoyed our stay there and would recommend it to anyone wanting to visit Rome but get away from the crowds and still be close to the main tourist areas
