My family of 6 stayed here for 10 nights and loved every minute in Rome. Like everyone else says, the apartment is clean, lovely, quiet and well set-up, you will really have a nice sleep after the tiring day, and Chris and Aldo are wonderful hosts. You don't need to bring Rome travel books since they have them all as well as all sorts of maps. They helped us planning our itinerary, they included lots of little thoughtful touches to make us feel completely at home and lastly they even offered us some refreshments, what a nice gesture! The location is close to the Trastevere River along which you can walk forever. Their Wi-Fi service was great which is very important to us. All the five star reviews are well-deserved. We would definitely stay here again and will tell our relatives and friends about this Stunning Roman Vacation Apartment in Trastevere-Janiculum.

My family of 5 and I were very fortunate to have found this clean and nice apartment in the central part of Trastevere area where historical spots are just walk away and bus stops are close by. We spent 7 wonderful and relaxing days in this large flat and no one felt cramped. The apartment appears larger than in the published online photos, there are lots of windows that bring the sunshine inside the house. It is clean and very well maintained, kitchen has all the basic stuff that you need for cooking, 2 bathrooms were clean as well, bedrooms were comfortable and the living area is very spacious. The accommodations were perfect - picturesque, quaint and quiet, we had a very nice sleep. The staff gave us a very warmth welcome when we first arrived in the apartment, Chris had done a very nice job in helping us our itinerary, booking tickets & attractions, giving us tips on where to go and recommending nice restaurants, we were very impressed by the service he gave us even on the e-mails right before we booked this flat. And during our stay, he was very available to help us when we needed assistance. When I come back in Rome, I will definitely stay here again. My family recommends this apartment to everyone.

Great apartment, but far from city attractions
Guest: Family Vacation's
(Houston, Texas, USA)
Date of Stay: 10/09/11
Review Submitted: 10/19/11
The apartment was very nice and cozy. It is especially large for Rome. We had 7 people staying there and no one felt cramped. The only problems we encountered was that it was far from all of the attractions and it is on a hill. You have to climb several flights of stairs to get to it or wait on a bus that can sometimes take a while. This was only an issue because we had older people in our group with weak knees and backs and had to find other ways around climbing hundreds of stairs. So about 2 hours of each day was just trying to get to the bottom of the hill and in a main area to tour around Rome. One other, slight inconvience, is that you have to be abnormally quiet around and inside of the apartment. We practically wispered and "tippy-toed" the entire time and still a lady from down stairs was yelling at us in Italian. We were extremely quiet because we were worried about the 300 Euro fine we could get if she called the owner and still that was too "loud." Dont get me wrong this is a great apartment and if you are staying for weeks and have a lot of young/middle age adults it will be great. But if you have small children (make noise) or older adults (climbing stairs) or a short stay with crunched time, it probably won't benefit you as well.
Owner response:We are glad that your family of 7 have stayed in our apartment in a nice way however we would like to clarify some few things: The apartment is located few meters away from the center of Trastevere (rather than two hours) and buses and taxi stand are nearby, the stairs (named Scala Righetto) is easily accessible and not long, it takes you to the historical center in few minutes . Personally, living for years in that area, we do not spend much time waiting for the buses: the bus which takes you all Rome runs every 10 minutes as published on the bus stop. The flat is located in a residential area in the center of Rome and in a very quiet building with only 5 apartments and all inhabited by the owners for years who are accustomed to silence and peace. We let our clients aware, not knowing their habits, to observe a certain silence and pay respect to the neighbors. The lady from downstairs who you have heard shouting simply told us that the shared elevator is to be kept available because you might have been using it a little longer, but not because your party was making noises, everything said in Italian that's why there might be some misunderstanding. Please take note that the 300 euro security deposit represents as a guarantee in case of damage to the apartment but not a fine for disturbing the peace so you won’t have to worry about it.

The apartment has a pleasant location away from the hubbub of the city center. We had a car that we parked in front of the house without problems and could so easily get to the center. The apartment is very large and beautiful, only the sanitary facilities should be modernized a bit and a dishwasher would be useful. The supervision and help of the manager was really perfect!

My family, friends and I found ourselves impressed in this very large, spacious, clean and beautiful apartment. The location was perfect and historical spots are just few steps away and when you're tired of walking you can always take the public transportation which takes you very close to the property. There are many wonderful restaurants, bars and flea markets, supermakets, pastry shops nearby. Chris gave us a very warmth welcome, he even offered us refreshments upon our arrival in the apartment! He then helped us plan out our itinerary and gave us recommendations on how to spend our holiday in its fullest. We highly recommend this property to everyone!

Spacious, breezy, beautiful apartment

We stayed in this apartment for about a week with our two teenage sons. It is much larger than it appears in the photos and is quite beautiful -- lots of windows that bring in nice breezes. The apartment was very clean and well maintained and the kitchen has everything you need if you want to cook. We used the company's driver from the airport and Chris met us at the apartment exactly as planned by e-mail. Chris is very friendly and gave us a lot of advice and detailed maps of the neighborhood -- most of these he sent by e-mail when we first booked the apartment. He was also available during our stay to give us advice by phone or e-mail, which was helpful. The apartment is a bit of a walk to get to central Rome and getting home is an uphill hike. We found that the bus and tram were both very convenient and we tended to rely on them to get places more efficiently.

Everything was fine and we had no problems . My family had a very wonderful time, we could just stand at the living room window's balcony and look out at the nice view outside forever. The staff gave us a very warmth welcome. I will definitely come back in the Eternal City and stay again in the stunning apartment.

The apartment was perfect for our needs. It is situated right in the heart of Trastevere with easy access to buses and taxis, although you can walk just about anywhere in Rome from this location. The staff were very nice, polite and gave us a very warmth welcome, they helped us planned our Roman vacation, suggested to us their favorite restaurants and a lot more, they were of big help to us. Oh, they even provided us with a cellphone so that we can always call them in case of assistance, what a kind gesture! The apartment is safely located and in a very, very quiet neighborhood.We loved our stay here. Will certainly recommend this to everyone.

My family, friends and I had a fabulous week in Rome and the apartment really contributed to our lovely stay. It is very charming, superbly located as it is very close to historical areas. Logistics were seamless and the flat really lives up to its description! The staff were very helpful, explained to us some of Rome great spots and even recommended us the best Roman authentic restaurants. Their service was just great, they even left us with a mobile phone so that we can always get in touch with them and they were always available to help us. I will definitely recommend this beautiful apartment to my friends and relatives so that they can also experience what I have experienced.
