Guest Reviews

• Kiara (9/5): Fantastic host, and a clean comfortable stay in a superb and quieter part of Trastevere! Would definitely recommend this - Location, washing machine, not having to take out the rubbish to external bins, safe&secure, being able to open the windows for the breeze, host & his helpfulness, space of the lounge room and bedroom. Couch cushions tended to slide towards the ground when sat on & the front door was a little tricky to open.
• Curtis (10/5): Our stay at The House of the Sun in the Trastevere neighborhood couldn’t have been any better for my wife and I, and I w - We were most impressed with the space and cleanliness of the apartment. We also greatly appreciated the plentiful amount of natural lighting and nice big windows we could open up for fresh air. The space was very well laid out and had plenty of room for my wife and I to spread out and store our belongings while on a 17 day Italian vacation. The washing machine came in very handy, with plenty of hangars to hang dry clothing as well as an iron that was available for use as well. Last but not least I can’t express enough how amazing the host was! Our train ended up being delayed and the flexibility the host provided was super helpful. The host met us at the property in person and gave us an extensive walk through and provided many restaurants, and activity suggestions. Neither one of us can come up with one thing we didn’t like about the property. It was perfect for us!
• Per (10/5): - Very nice apartment in a quiet part of Trastevere, with several great bars and restaurants in the close neighborhood. Marcello the host went out of his way to make the stay a great experience for us. Highly recommended!
• Raphael (10/5): Inesquecível - O apartamento é lindo, muito bem localizado, bem equipamento e extremamente limpo. O host foi muito gentil e nos indicou alguns restaurantes ótimos na região. Tivemos uma ótima experiência. Super recomendo.
• Rendon (10/5): We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment was wonderful and in very hip area but away from all the noice, highly recomme - Nicely decorated will all the necessities needed while on vacation. There is nothing to dislike about this property.
• David (10/5): Would highly recommend - Great location. Very modern inside. Eye helpful host. Air con was a godsend A touch noisy at night but quietened down significantly late evening onwards.
• Ash (9/5): A great find in a quiet part of trastevere. Had an upmarket feel - Light and airy. Clean and not tatty
• Antonella (10/5): - Tutto super! Lo consiglio a tutti...collegato bene con tutto! Un appartamento super silenzioso anche essendo al centro di Trastevere! Top ci ritornerò 😊 Nulla
• Filipe Manuel (10/5): - Ficamos numa rua sossegada, apesar der ser uma zona com muitos bares e restaurantes, a habitação tinha vidros duplos. Correu tudo bem, nada a dizer. Chegamos às 2 da manhã e o senhorio estava a nossa espera, cheio de sono 😁 Recomendo. A fichas podem ser melhoradas, com adaptadores novos.
• Juan Aunión (10/5): Unos días maravillosos - El apartamento está completamente nuevo y acondicionado con todo lo necesario. Tiene un buen aire acondicionado (importante en Roma en verano) y todos los útiles de cocina necesarios. Lo mejor de todo la atención de Marcello (nos atendió en español). Nos recibió él mismo y nos explicó todo lo necesario, además de aconsejarnos sobre sitios para ir a comer y supermercados.
• katarzyna (10/5): - Ładne i funkcjonalne mieszkanie, urządzone z dbałością o szczegóły. Na miejscu wszystko, czego potrzebujesz. Zaangażowany i pomocny gospodarz. Lokalizacja miejsca świetna.
• Nataliia (10/5): -
• J R P (9/5): A very comfortable spot in a great part of Rome. Restaurants and attractions all in walking distance - The owner, Marcello was very accomodating and went above and beyond to make our arrival and stay great. He arranged private car transfer to the airport at the end of our stay and suggested some great restaurants. It's a great place to stay in the best part of Rome (in my opinion?.
• Edgar (10/5): Apartamento excepcional - Apartamento simplesmente Maravilhoso Ótima localização , restaurantes maravilhosos a poucos passos Marcello, anfitrião excepcional, educado disponível, nos deu dicas de mercado, restaurantes, reservou um transporte para o Aeroporto( motorista Vlad, muito gentil e pontual) Apartamento completo,confortável e limpo Gostamos de tudo
• Nicola (9/5): Comfortable apartment and great location - Location was excellent. Comfortable and well stocked with everything required. Host was friendly and very helpful with recommendations. Nothing
• Amber (10/5): Exceptional - Marcello was amazing. He went above and beyond. The place was very clean and cozy.
• Andrew (10/5): A great location in Trastevere, superbly appointed apartment. Marcello was so helpful in providing advice on restaurants - It was spotlessly clean, very spacious with a well equipped kitchen. Marcello met us at the apartment to show us around. The apartment was beautifully decorated, it was clear Marcello was rightly proud of the property. We loved the property, so there was nothing to dislike.
• Philip (10/5): Exceptional - Location is fantastic, within walking distance or short tram/ bus ride of all major historical sites. Roomy and quiet with air con and everything you would need. Marcello met us in person and gave us a good quick check in process. Very helpful with additional recommendations. You need to be fit enough to carry your bags up 5 flights of stairs to 3rd floor. Rome is an expensive city for accommodation, but price is relative to other options in central area.
• Tom (10/5): Perfect location for a visit to Rome - Location was ideal- 30mi. Walk to Vatican and 30 min the other way to Coliseum. Roomy apartment with all the amenities, building was older but apartment had been recently renovated.Marcello the owner is an amazing host - helped us with everything we needed and super responsive Only downside was it was on second floor and we ‘over-packed’. But the exercise was good training for some of the walking we did
• Kristina (10/5): Exceptional -
• Paul (10/5): A real gem, perfect for our weekend stay in Rome. Our host, Marcello, couldn’t have been more helpful, he took the time - Location was perfect, away from the madness of central Rome but with more than enough bars, restaurants and life to keep everyone happy. The apparent was big enough for our party of 3 and had all the facilities we needed for a long weekend break. Nothing!
• Tina (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tessa (10/5): Great location! Clean. Has all the amenities you could think of. The host is a wonderful person - Great location! Clean. Has all the amenities you could think of. The host is a wonderful person

• Runar (10/5): Exceptional - Unbeatable location, very service-minded and responsive host, and a beautiful, spacious apartment with all amenities – highly recommended!
• Eve (10/5): The perfect place to stay on our Rome trip - House of the Sun was the perfect place to stay on our Rome trip. It’s beautiful inside, featured everything we needed and in a great location. Restaurants are close by and there’s a great coffee spot downstairs which did a perfect cappuccino! Marcello met us for check-in and showed us around the space, answering any questions we had. He also gave us local restaurant recommendations and offered to book for us if we needed. He was just a text message away with any questions. A great host, and a wonderful place to stay. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
• Hugo (10/5): I had a great stay at this accommodation! The location was excellent – very central, yet quiet, which made it perfect fo -
• Andreea (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment is impeccably clean—truly exceeding the standards shown in the photos—and its location is ideal, with easy access to the main attractions. Noise from outside - people talking, or garbage collection - was easily audible inside the apartment, especially during the night. If you're a light sleeper or sensitive to noise, this might be something to consider. It was not a big issue for us.
• Anzilotti (10/5): Exceptional - I really like the apartment, luminous and really well designed. The host is very gentle and takes care of the place.
• Harsharn (10/5): Amazing spacious property in great location! - Amazing location with good transport links close by. Walking distance to main attractions. Spacious and clean property. Property owner was accommodating with early check in and bag drop off, and had great communication overall. The water in the shower was a bit inconsistent sometimes. It would go hot and cold by itself.
• Annamária (10/5): Great stay, clean - The apartment was clean and spacious. The host was incredible attentive and always ready to assist. It's close to wonderful restaurants and bars, very accessible for public transport and so close to the center and the sights. It's in a quiet street. The property is in the heart of the most charming and picturesque neighbourhood in Rome. Walking distance from a really great restaurant:(La Tavernetta 29 da Tony e Andrea)I definitely recommend! Nothing
• Joanne (10/5): Absolutely wonderful! We were so lucky to have booked this appartment and will be returning soon and telling our friends - The property was wonderful- spacious, very clean, modern and in a perfect location. We loved everything about our stay here. Marcello, our host, was incredibly helpful and was there to show us how everything worked. He even booked a local restaurant for us and gave brilliant recommendations, along with helping us to book a taxi on our return to the airport. It was perfect! Nothing at all to dislike.
• Mark (9/5): An amazing location in Rome! Perfect for the rest of the City. - I recently enjoyed a delightful 3-night stay at a charming apartment that exceeded all my expectations. The moment we walked in, we were captivated by how beautifully maintained the space was; it was pristine and tastefully decorated, making it feel like a home away from home. Location is everything, and this apartment is perfectly situated near all the major tourist attractions. I was just a short walk from iconic sites and vibrant cultural hotspots, making sightseeing incredibly convenient. Plus, We felt completely at ease each evening, as the apartment is located in a safe and welcoming neighborhood. Our host, Marcello, was truly amazing. He greeted us at the flat, even though it was later in the evening, and took the time to give us a full tour of the apartment. His hospitality made us feel right at home, and he provided fantastic recommendations for local eateries, helping us discover the best spots to enjoy authentic cuisine. One of the highlights of our stay was the abundance of distinct local eateries just around the corner. From cozy cafes boasting freshly brewed coffee to exquisite dining options showcasing local flavors, we were spoiled for choice. There is small family bakers outside the door, selling small biscuits. You’ve got to pop in and get a pick and mix. However, I did notice a couple of areas for improvement. Adding USB sockets would greatly enhance convenience for modern travelers, making it easier to charge devices without needing multiple adapters. Additionally, ensuring a consistent hot water flow would significantly improve the overall comfort of the stay.
• Jayant (10/5): Best host and very helpful - Amazing property, and marcello the host was extremely helpful
• Helfrich (10/5): Perfect stay in Trastevere - Perfect apartment in the Trastevere district. I can only recommend it. We had a great welcome from Marcello who gave us lots of recommendations. The apartment is very well located, very functional and very very clean. Nothing to complain about. Go for it!!! Nothing
• Viktoriia (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment was absolutely perfect! It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The neighborhood was simply wonderful—very quiet and cozy, making it the ideal place to relax. And Marcelo, the host, was fantastic—kind, helpful, and always available if we needed anything. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back. Highly recommended! -
• Debora (10/5): Amazing - I had an amazing stay at this apartment in Rome! The location was perfect—close to all the major attractions yet tucked away in a quiet and charming neighborhood. The apartment was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. The host was incredibly friendly and helpful, offering great local tips. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Rome!" Nothing
• Rado (10/5): Modern Comfort in the Heart of Trastevere - Stayed two nights at House of The Sun in Trastevere, and it was absolutely spot-on. The location is unbeatable—right in the heart of Trastevere, surrounded by the best vibes, amazing food spots, and easy access to everything you’d want to see in Rome. The space itself is super clean, modern, and spacious, with furniture that feels high-quality and stylish—definitely not your average rental. It had a polished, comfortable vibe that made it easy to relax after a day of exploring. The host was awesome—friendly, helpful, and always quick to respond if we needed anything. It’s clear they genuinely care about making guests feel at home. If you’re looking for a clean, cool, and perfectly located spot in Trastevere, this is it. Would 100% book again!
• Helena (10/5): Exceptional - Marcello was an excellent host, very responsive. We loved the apartment, it was spacious, clean, bright and very comfortable. The location was excellent and we would definitely stay here again! 10/10
• Albert (8/5): Very good -
• Mindy (10/5): unforgettable family memories! - The location was amazing. We walked to the Coliseum and so many great restaurants. It wA very comfortable size for 3 adults. Very clean, well stocked kitchen! Marcello was very gracious. 😊
• Carina (10/5): Exceptional -
• Josefine (10/5): Exceptional - Super location and very clean and spacious. Marcello is an amazing and available and communicative host.
• Adela (9/5): Hidden gem - Marcelo is a very nice host, and the apartment is very clean, brand new, better than in the pictures. Bed was comfy, mattress offers good support (we are picky so we were surprised how well we slept). WiFi is fast, we worked remote heavily for one day without problem. Location is perfect, and the caffe on the corner was the best way to start the day. Very good quality and fair prices. Do not skip it!! We would recommend the place and would definitely return. In shower it is a bit difficult to set the water temperature, easily goes from too hot to too cold. The apartment has great soundproofing, windows manage to block the sound pretty well. However during weekend it still gets noisy at night, but it is something expected. These are not real issues, the place is great, hidden gem!
• Elisa (9/5): Very comfortable and authentic. - Location is lovely, also the host is very attentive and the room is spacious. There was sounds in the street at night because there is a lot of restaurants. Also early in the morning when they clean.
• Maja (10/5): Exceptional -
• Hovhannes (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice apartment in the heart of Trastevere. And Marcello is an excellent host.

• Daniel (10/5): Fantastic apartment in a quiet and well-located spot in Trastevere. - Marcello, our host, met us at the apartment and gave us the keys. He then spent nearly a half hour showing us around, pointing out where we could find everything we needed and how everything worked. This apartment had everything we could want, even a safe. It was on a quiet street near restaurants and shopping. The building does not have an elevator, but the steps up were wide and easy to manage. The apartment includes a large living room/dining room, a well appointed kitchen with everything you need, a bedroom with a queen sized bed and a large closet with drawers and poles and a bathroom with a great shower. There is washing machine that worked flawlessly. Nice touches in the bathroom were lots of towels, a big medicine cabinet and a scale. Everything was spotless. At the end of our trip, Marcello arranged for a taxi to take us to the airport. I have nothing bad to say whatsoever. I wish every apartment and host were as good as this one.
• Rachela (10/5): Wonderful. - Marcello was super attentive and a great host. He arranged our taxi from the airport and met us at the apartment to give us the keys and provide a walk through. The apartment is a great size with comfortable beds and pillows. Air conditioning and wifi worked great. The large windows open up for a great view of the alley. The location is excellent. We loved our stay. Thank you, Marcello!
• Cein (9/5): Superb -
• Carol (10/5): A rare opportunity to step into the local life and explore Trastevere from a loveaccomdation base. - House of the Sun is true to its name and pictures. It is a spacious, comfortable and functional apartment with all the facilities for cooking and relaxing. Large windows allow beautiful light and breezes flow through. Excellent wardrobe storage, washing machine and a well equipped kitchen. Marcello has decorated the apartment beautifully and has created a stylish oasis. The apartment is private and quiet yet walking distance to cafes, restaurants, supermarkets and sights. Marcello was excellent in communicating throughout the whole process and arranged an early checkin for me , which was greatly appreciated. I liked everything and had a very comfortable stay.
• Kylie (10/5): Beautiful place to stay in a great area of Rome! - The apartment was absolutely lovely with everything as described! Marcello was excellent at communicating regarding arrival time, key handover organising a taxi for us etc, he couldn’t have been more helpful 😃 There is a washing machine, clothes horse, iron etc and everything in the kitchen you would need. The location is brilliant in a quieter street of Trastevere but close to restaurants and shops. Absolutely loved our stay here and would definitely stay again! Thanks Marcello for your lovely apartment and all your help 😊 Nothing.
• Aneta (10/5): Great location and host support. - The location was great, everywhere was close, there were many restaurants on site offering local (and not only) dishes. Special thanks to the host Marcello, who we could always count on. The apartment had everything we needed.
• Philippa (10/5): Perfect apartment, location outstanding! - Lovely, clean and quiet. Spacious with everything we needed. Bed was big and comfortable. A great washing machine. Comfortable lounges and air conditioning was wonderful in the heat of summer. The apartment was very secure and safe. The location was perfect with many eating options. Taxi rank close by. Marcello was very easy to communicate with and responsive to questions. Definitely recommend his apartment. Nothing. Wish I could have stayed longer!
• Katherine (9/5): Excellent - Nice large unit with all the things you require for a short stay in Rome ! Comfortable bed and fully stocked utensil kitchen ! Very tastefully decorated and with in walking distance to all the sights of Rome Aircon was fantastic in the Rome heat Great places to eat locally! Thanks Marcello I would re book with you on my next return to Rome Marcello was always available to talk for any thing that you may require on your stay Nothing
• Sanjna (9/5): Wonderful! Highly recommend!! - This property was wonderful for our stay!! We loved coming home to here and Marcello was exceptionally helpful! The location was perfect for Greta food and about a 20-30min walk to major attractions! It was air conditioned which was really nice and had a great coffee shop near by! Not a big deal for us and not a deal breaker at all but just a note that there is no lift so if you have lots of luggage you have to carry to second floor
• Lisa (10/5): Highly recommend House of the Sun Trastevere - book it! - This property is a great find. It is in a lovely central location in Trastevere, close to all the restaurants but not too close to be disturbed late at night. It’s very spacious with a separate living room, kitchen, bathroom and walk in wardrobe. The bed was comfortable and both main rooms were fully air conditioned. Marcello was easy to contact and responsive to all our questions and queries and was accommodating for us to leave our luggage and early check in. Check in and out was easy. The property is tastefully decorated and was very clean. I would recommend this property as a base for visiting Rome and would definitely stay here again. As a bonus, cafe 67 is located in the same apartment block and they do a great cappuccino and the best custard croissants I have ever had. This property is located up on either the second or third floor so wouldn’t be a good choice for anyone with mobility issues or anyone unable to lift luggage upstairs, this didn’t bother us though.
• Samantha (10/5): Perfect for my partner and I to stay for a couple days in Rome. Felt like we were retreating to our own place after big - Amazing location and such a lovely and roomy property! N/A
• Elisabeth (10/5): A stylish and spacious apartment in the heart of Trastevere, Rome’s cool hipster neighborhood. - This is a really pretty, spacious, and very functional apartment in the heart of Trastevere. The apartment is tastefully decorated, hip and stylish with high ceilings, tall modern windows, air conditioning, nice furniture, fully equipped kitchen and modern clean spacious bathroom. We were so comfortable (the place is really big!) and we loved our stay in Rome in this apartment! It was so close to the main piazza by foot yet just far enough to be away from the loud tourist crowds so we had quiet peaceful night’s sleep. All of it was great! No complaints!
• Rebecca (10/5): Exceptional -
• Erin (10/5): Wonderful - highly recommend - Very clean, has everything you need like a hotel and also an Airbnb, great for an extended stay. Very well located, tons of restaurants and piazzas within walking distance, but outside of the super touristy areas. High quality furniture and comfortable bed. Bigger than the photos. Hot water, good water pressure. Very secure building, big windows that you can open to hear the street, or close and it keeps the sound out relatively well. AC and heating. Marcello was very communicative and easy to work with. Literally nothing - highly recommend this place
• Sergey (10/5): Exceptional - Special thanks to the owner- Mr. Marcello! He was very kind and everything was great!
• Thearia (6/5): Pleasant -
• Jana (10/5): Hidden Gem! Highly Recommend - The apartment exceeded our expectations with its generous space, impeccable cleanliness, and was well equipped. The beds, including the sleeper couch was incredibly comfortable, perfect for a good night’s rest after a day of exploring Rome. Although the neighborhood has an amazing vibe and energy during the day the apartment allowed for a quiet peaceful sleep. Marcello's attentive communication added an extra touch of hospitality, enhancing our overall experience. Nothing not to like.
• Andrew (10/5): A great place to stay in Rome ! When we go back we will book with Marcello again - Fantastic location, newly renovated Spotlessly clean, well equipped . The host friendly, helpful and accommodating. Had some good recommendations for local restaurants Really nothing - it was all great. Located in the quieter end of Trastevere, but still close to everything .
• Paul (9/5): Perfect for a short break in Rome - Very comfortable, well-appointed apartment in a great location, a quiet corner of Trastevere but an easy walk or bus journey to all the main sites. Marcello was a great host. Highly recommend.
