Trastevere charming loft

Really helpful greeting and superb position. Loved staying herer

All was fine - much appreciated

Our second stay in this Trastevere apartment. We love the location - in spite of the roadworks! - and it's a great base for exploring Rome on foot, stocking up at the Cosimato market, visiting local restaurants, popping out for a coffee. The evenings turned cold but the heating was quick and efficient and there was an excellent shower. Coo...Read Moreking facilities are adequate with a very good hob and a rather slow mini oven & grill. If we're allowed one criticism, the sofa bed isn't the most comfortable chair with very little back support. I would have loved an armchair with some extra cushions. Don't let the steep stairs put you off, it's worth the climb and it's lovely to be high up above the street. It feels very safe and secure. Do visit the Gianocolo Park for some of the best views in Rome and the Botanical Gardens which are just round the corner. Some of the the local backstreet restaurants are excellent and traditional and much quieter than the main streets. We also recommend the Testaccio market - within easy walking distance. If you want to go further afield it's an easy walk over one of the bridges into the very heart of Rome. We're very happy to recommend this property and the service provided by Rome Loft.

Everything was fine and went well. My only comment wold be that the person who "welcomed" us to the flat when we arrived on Monday 22 June ( Roberto possibly?) had a very off -hand attitude and was so casual in his manner as to be off putting. You might want to consider how this might impact on other customers in the future. Otherwise a...Read More very good holiday experience

We had a wonderful week in Trastevere and the warm October weather was an unexpected bonus. We loved the area, full of character and atmosphere. Our loft apartment was tucked away down a rather shabby cobbled back street which we became very fond of. It was spacious and comfortable, well equipped, light and airy with an excellent shower, good ho...Read Moreb, air conditioning, radiators, a comfy sofa and a firm bed. (We did sometimes worry the bed would roll over the edge of the mezzanine into the room below but we were spared!). We found a wealth of good places to eat and drink, enjoyed the entertainment in the square, went to the Botanical Gardens (just round the corner) and gazed at the stunning views of Rome from the Gianicolo Hill at the top of Via Garibaldi ( a flight of steps close by took us to the entrance). We recommend the SIT bus service from Fiumicino Airport to Piazza Cavour followed by a taxi to the property ... it's easier than facing the scrum at Termini station. From the accommodation, t's an easy walk to the pedestrian bridge, Ponte Sisto, and from there you can hail a taxi if you need one. We took one to the Borghese Gallery (having pre-booked our tickets); it only cost a few euros and was easier than negotiating the buses and trams. But mostly we walked and explored and marvelled. Overall, highly recommended accommodation in a really interesting part of the city. The booking process was efficient and accurate and everything was as described. Lots of lovely places to shop and eat & watch the world go by within walking distance. We would love to go back.

This is a calm and beautiful apartment in a great part of Trastevere. A wonderful place to return to after a day walking Rome. Mr Honey was a diligent and very pleasant host. Negatives? Perhaps the bed isn't quite up to the standard of the rest of the apartment. Would I stay there again? Definitely.

One detail we would like to share with you is that the availability of english speaking television, particularly news channels or movie channels, would have been very much appreciated. It would also have been appreciated if a map of central Rome had been left for us. THANKS!

We could not have wished for more, not only did the apartment have everything we needed it was full of character with traditional furniture, good attention to detail and being dual aspect it was very bright and airy. The bedroom area was very spacious if a little low but this really didn't matter as you only sleep there and the 'walk in w...Read Moreardrobe' is downstairs.It's situated in a very lively area with quaint cobbled streets but is very quiet at night as slightly away from the main streets. It was easily reached from the airport by public transport which is very cheap and efficient .Mr Honey Sing met us on his bike and gave us a detailed tour . We felt this was a well cared for and well managed apartment and would definitely return there again.

I loved my week-long stay in this apartment. The apartment was gorgeous with terracotta tiled floor, well furnished and well equipped for self-catering. With windows on two sides the apartment was light and airy (but aircon also works well) and I loved throwing the shutters open in the morning and seeing the rooftops. The apartment is situated in a...Read More quiet street in the heart of Trastevere so minutes' walk from great restaurants, bars and small supermarkets for supplies. Only a couple of notes of caution: the apartment is on the top floor reached by two flights of steep, narrow stairs and the bed is on a mezzanine floor which would be unsuitable for those unsteady on their feet. I loved staying in this apartment and hope to return for another stay in the future.
