A seamless blend of traditional charm and contemporary flair, this apartment is quite a gem. The high-quality finishes are straight out of a magazine, while those searching for character will appreciate the wooden ceilings dating back to the 1400s. Two single sofa beds offer sleeping space for little ones in the lounge, though we think this pad is best for a couple. As for the location, you'll be based in Trastevere. Known for its bohemian atmosphere, local trattorias, and artisan shops, this neighbourhood is the perfect stomping grounds for those seeking an authentic stay. You're also an easy stroll into the centre if sightseeing is on your to-do list.

Home truths:
*The living room has two single sofa beds. We think they are best for kids.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them during booking.
*The en-suite bathroom has two glass walls. It’s not the most private, but we love the contemporary finish.
