Lavinia is a wonderful host. She met me and helped me with my bags, there were beautiful flowers waiting for us. She is a gracious and kind person and checked in with us every few days to make sure our stay was going well. She had great suggestions for things to do and for restaurants. The apartment is beautifully decorated by her artistic touch, all the linens and fabrics were beautiful and there were fascinated framed photos of Trastevere in the past. The internal courtyard was wonderful to have breakfast and the neighbors were all friendly. It is seconds away from so much that is happening in Trastevere but quiet. The interior courtyard with a sweeping view up to the Gianicolo is not to be missed. It could be a setting for a film. We look forward to visiting again!
