highly recommend
Pros:

We would highly recommend Residenza San Calisto. It's in the heart of Trastevere, steps away from the busier nightlife but tucked away on a quieter side street. We arrived later than expected but the self check in was super easy and convenient. Would definitely stay here again.

Charming and Clean Hotel in a Great Rome Location
Pros:

This was a very clean and charming hotel in the Trastevere part of Rome. The hotel staff was extremely helpful and kind. The area has many smaller and medium sized restaurants and is well located on the west side of the Tiber river. A less crowded area, but very charming and full of great restaurants. The hotel was very clean, great A/C, a wonderful staff and a fair price.

Lovely stay that I'll happily repeat
Pros:

I traveled to Trastevere with my family to attend an academic conference. The staff were so warm and welcoming. They communicated with me a few days before departure to prepare me for checkin, which made traveling into Trastevere so easy. The room was spacious, quiet, clean, and cool, especially considering the heat wave the city was experience. The staff cleaned are room everyday! I know others mentioned it, but the intentionality of maintaining a clean welcoming space was so amazing after a long, hot day walking around. We were even greeted with complimentary wine! This was especially nice since our schedules didn't allow us to make it to Fabullus. The location is ideal for walking to so many major attractions. The restaurants, cafes, and piazzas nearby were fun to explore as well. We will happily stay here again! Thank you all for a lovely stay.

Hidden gem in Trastevere
Pros:

I would definitely recommend staying at this hotel! The staff were friendly from the beginning. We were going to be arriving late and they made sure we had all the info needed for a self check in. As far as location, you couldn’t be in a better spot. Trastevere has so many good restaurants all within walking distance from the hotel. You’re not too far from the big sites either. A huge plus having stayed in July was the air conditioning. It worked great and kept our room cool which was a welcome respite from the heat outside. I would totally stay here again next time I’m in Rome!

Brilliant hotel
Pros:

Very beautiful hotel in the heart of Travestere but away from the crowds and noise. The hotel staff couldn’t do enough for us and were very responsive even during their out of office hours. If we go back to Rome, we’ll definitely be staying here again.

Pros:

Ubicación cercano a los principales atractivos turísticos de Roma. Barrio tranquilo y seguro.

Cons:

Nos enviaron a un departamento y no al hotel que suponíamos habíamos contratado. Si bien la ubicación del departamento no estuvo mal, la publicación no fue clara en informar que el departamento estudio era en un barrio diferente al del hotel, al que justamente habíamos elegido por el lugar en el que estaba. Además, fue una complicación para dejar las valijas desde el check out hasta la hora de salida de nuestro tren.
