We recently visited Rome for a 3 day stay in the beautiful Trastevere area. The apartment was centrally located, well furnished, modern and clean. Although check in was 3:00 Paolo allowed us to store our luggage in the apartment upon our early afternoon arrival in Rome. This was well appreciated. There are two long and steep stairways leading up to the apartment which should be mentioned as a concern for older adults. The person cleaning the apartment was very kind to carry our 4 suitcases up all flights of stairs upon our arrival but we needed to carry them down. This could be a concern if you are not in shape and have trouble lugging your baggage. Also, the stairwells were poorly lit after dark due to some lights which appeared to be burned out. Paolo and Norah greeted us at the apartment at check in and gave us a through run down of local attractions, including supermarkets and tram lines, that included a map he had marked up for our purposes. Norah gave us a list of restaurant recommendations, including addresses which was appreciated. He showed us around the apartment including the beautiful roof top terrace which is found by climbing a few outside steps. The beds were comfortable and linens (towels and sheets) were very nice. A few items that didn't meet our expectations were spotty internet access. This was especially a problem for us and our family in that we could not communicate with our children back in the US, communicate with airlines, tour guides etc. Another issues was the lack of proper shower/bath accommodations in the second bathroom. No shower just a tub with a hand held sprayer and no curtain made it difficult to keep the floor dry.
