San Callisto - one of a kind house with garden

The garden was a nice area to get away from the crowds. Check in was difficult as contact numbers provided were not responded to, but ultimately we were met for access. Kitchen was well equipped if you choose to cook. Washing machine and dishwasher available, but if you plan to use bring your own soap. The bedding was comfortable, but towels could use an update. Many restaurants and night life available throughout the area.

Matteo was great to work with at check in. Really nice property with great location and nice air conditioning.

Great neighborhood and location in the city. Place could use a deep clean to improve its appeal considerably.

Good location.

This apartment is in the perfect location. The environment is typical of the neighborhood with restaurants and shops. The one detractor is the graffiti outside the location, but there is graffiti on most every building in that area. The door lock is a single key you have to take with you so if some staying with you want to stay, they have to be locked in if you leave and take the key. Be careful with that aspect of the apartment. The rooms are spacious and very clean. It is quite in the upstairs bedrooms and the back garden is lovely.

Very homey rustic spot to enjoy the sites, sounds, and foods of Trastevere.

The location cannot be beat! Right off of a small Piazza in an alley, the apartment was the perfect base to explore the eclectic Trastevere neighborhood with bars and restaurants at your finger tips! We found the beds comfortable and the back patio was an added bonus! The stay was perfect for 4 adults and 2 kids who slept on the pullout sofa. The kitchen was well equipped to cook in, but plenty to do just steps from your door!

First the cons. The title says elegant place. There is no elegance for this place. It is rustic urban. A bit rundown and tired in the furnishings. Second the place says air conditioning and we needed air conditioning. However, the one unit didn’t work making the front bedroom very very warm. The managements answer was open the windows. However, the street noise is very high especially we were there on a Friday night. The noise didn’t stop till after 3 AM. I know that is not an issue with the unit but certainly opening the windows wasn’t going to make things any better. a few small nitty things include there was no garbage can or recycling bins in the kitchen. The pros the management was accommodating enough to allow us to bring our luggage early. Communication was pretty good until I asked about the air conditioning then they went silent.

Our stay at this property had its highs and lows. On the positive side, the communication with the host was excellent. The team was friendly, responsive, and quickly helped resolve an issue I caused during our stay, which I greatly appreciated. The location in Trastevere is unbeatable—vibrant, full of life, with amazing food, shops, and locals. You truly get the best of Rome's charm in this neighborhood. However, the property itself left a lot to be desired. It’s aged and didn’t feel well-maintained. The second bathroom was very small and barely usable, and several features, like the sticky doors, made the space feel neglected. The cleanliness was also an issue—it never quite felt clean, which detracted from the overall experience. The description of the place was accurate but didn't convey some of these details that would have been good to know beforehand. Overall, while the location is fantastic and the team is great, the property itself could use some work to make it feel more comfortable. My partner and I are middle-aged, and the price range suggests that this property is targeted toward a similar demographic. However, if you’re younger, you might overlook some of the things we found bothersome—such as the state of maintenance or the smaller bathroom—which we tend to take for granted at this price point.

Overall disappointed with property. It felt tired and dingy. Beds weren’t made up when we arrived, dishwasher still had dishes from last visitor, outdoor cushions were left in the rain, so we couldn’t use them to sit outside. While the location was good, we didn’t spend much time in the unit.

First floor unit, very comfortable place with lots of dining right out the front door. Easy check in/check out. Host gave suggestions for things to do and places to eat.

This apartment was in great location. Lively but quiet in the apartment. A real Roman experience. We loved it!
