UNIQUE TRASTEVERE, Rome

The apartment sits in the real heart of Trastevere, a neighbourhood filled with cobbled lanes, jasmine, and bougainvillea. You can reach the Roman Forum in 14 minutes on foot, Piazza Venezia in 1 km, and Campo de' Fiori in 1 km. The area is served by bus and tram lines, making it easy to reach the Vatican or central Rome (about 20-30 minutes on foot or a short ride). Despite its centrality, the street itself is calm and quiet - a rare advantage in this bustling district. Rome Ciampino Airport is 15 km away, and the host can arrange a paid transfer.

The apartment has one bedroom with a double bed and an additional single bed, making it suitable for couples or a small family (up to three guests). The bathroom includes both a bath and a separate shower, with free toiletries provided. The kitchenette is well-appointed: stovetop, dishwasher, microwave, kettle, and cookware - enough to prepare breakfast or simple meals. The living area features a dining table, a flat-screen TV with Netflix, and a washing machine. Original stone vaults and parquet floors add character. Note that the apartment is on the ground floor and has very limited natural light, creating a cosy, air-conditioned retreat after a day exploring Rome. The comfortable bed and quiet street ensure a good night's sleep.

For those who prefer to dine in, the kitchenette includes a microwave, stovetop, and dishwasher, and the minibar offers drinks and snacks. The host provides a thoughtful welcome package of wine, snacks, and bottled water. If you want to explore the neighbourhood, Trastevere is famous for its restaurants - Spirito DiVino, Alembic, Le Mani in Pasta, Da Enzo Al 29, and La Cornucopia a Trastevere are all within a 5-minute walk, offering excellent Roman and Italian cuisine.

The apartment has a spacious in-room hot tub/Jacuzzi that can be enjoyed in privacy - a rare amenity for a city-centre apartment. The large flat-screen TV with Netflix is positioned so you can watch it from the tub, making it easy to unwind after walking 20000+ steps through Rome. There is also a small outdoor patio accessible from the apartment for a breath of fresh air. Bicycle parking is available for guests who want to explore the city on two wheels.

WiFi is free throughout the apartment. The building has a lift (elevator) for easy access. For security, key-card entry and a free safety deposit box are provided. Bicycle parking is available for free. There is no on-site parking; the host can arrange paid airport transfer from Ciampino (€50 day, €60 night). Laundry is convenient with a washing machine in the unit. Housekeeping before arrival is included; additional daily cleaning can be requested at an extra cost. Late check-out is possible subject to availability. The host, Mauro, is known for being extremely responsive and helpful, and provides a welcome gift on arrival.
