Great location in Trastevere!
Pros:

We stayed in the One Bedroom Apartment with our adult child. The entrance is next door to the main entrance and is on the second floor...about 40 steps up because in Italy the second floor is the American third floor. We received very clear communications and directions for entering the apartment and for details regarding cleanings, payments and check out. Someone was always available via What's App to answer our questions.
The room was very spacious with a separate twin bed for our child. There is a kitchen area with stove top, sink, large refrigerator, microwave and a clothes washer. It was stocked with dishes, etc. The bathroom also had plenty of supplies. We really appreciated the many hooks in the entrance and bathroom as we were there during the rainy season and it helped to hang wet items.
The location is great and very near the Piazza di Santa Marie in Trastevere and many restaurants, shops and grocery stores. There is even a public water fountain right outside the buiding door! It is a less than five minute walk to two taxi stands, the bus stop and the tram stop, and therefore, it was easy to utilize all of those to reach the Vatican and all other parts of Rome.
We really had a great stay at Hotel Residenza San Calisto as our home base!

Pros:

Ιδανική τοποθεσία .
Προσωπικό ευγενέστατο και ιδιαίτερα εξυπηρετικό .
Τα κρεβάτια πολύ βολικά και αναπαυτικά .
Καθημερινή καθαριότητα και πάντα νερό στο ψυγείο μας όλες τις ημέρες !

Cons:

Το δικό μας δωμάτιο είχε παράθυρα σε εσωτερική καλυμμένη με πέργκολα αυλή , συνεπώς κάπως σκοτεινό .
Δεν μας ενόχλησε αλλά ήταν το μόνο σημείο που έχω να επισημάνω για μελλοντικούς επισκέπτες .

Perfect place in Trastevere
Pros:

Perfect location in the heart of Trastevere, luckily farther from the touristy and loud part. Everything is close, convenient bus and tram service. Very nice room, pleasant service.

Cons:

The door is not soundproof at all, you hear everything from the small corridor. Can be a bit annoying while guests arriving or leaving.

Underrated Gem
Pros:

This quaint hotel in Trastevere offers everything you want in a Rome stay - perfect location with local charm and major attractions within walking distance. The managers and staff were exceptionally sweet, welcoming, and accommodating. They went above and beyond for my late after-hours check-in, ensuring I had everything needed to get in and settled without any issues. Having stayed at other similarly-rated Trastevere hotels, I genuinely feel this one is underrated and would absolutely return. Highly recommend.
