Pros

Located in Rome's equivalent to New York's Greenwich Village
Cons

“What stands out is its location in the heart of Trastevere, putting you within easy reach of neighborhood attractions and other parts of Rome; plus, the train station is walkable for airport access. I think the rooftop bar is special, offering 360-degree views during the summer months, and the fact that it was once a seminary gives it a certain atmosphere. A solid choice for experiencing Rome's charm.”
