Sonder Trastevere Apartments Piazza Trilussa

I arrived late at night, exhausted and dreaming of the room I had actually booked. For some reason, I was given a different one. The room I got instead strongly resembled a crime scene—or perhaps a haunted community center. Scratched walls, broken boards… But the true highlight? The rich, bold, and sticky aroma of raw sewage wafting through the air. It was so thick and fragrant, you could taste it. Naturally, we asked for a room change. Silly us. “No rooms available,” they said—but they did suggest we run all the taps for five minutes, like we were trying to summon a sanitation demon. Spoiler alert: it didn’t help. Housekeeping promised to come and pour cleaner into the sewage. Nothing changed. And let’s talk amenities. The light bulbs in the loft were more decorative than functional. The coffee machine? Dead. The dishwasher? Also dead. I half expected the bed to burst into flames just to complete the theme of “everything is broken.” In addition, the hotel was in the city center, so we could hear people partying outside. They promised earplugs. Guess what? Those were missing and never delivered.

Do yourself a big favor and stay away from this apartment! Noisy all day and night, huge windows without shutters. You won't be able to sleep for one minute during your stay here. Customer service is a complete disgrace. Just try to get a human response or a refund. Un believeable.

Great apartment, very well equipped and clean. And most importantly had air conditioning! To our surprise it was very quiet at night. The service from the sonder team was great. They helped us organize the transfer from the airport to the apartment. Highly recommend!

Great location. In the middle of everything. No issue with noise from the street. Easy to get into. Safe. Great amenities. Lots of space for people up to 4. Similar to pictures. As expected. Only issue is we could not figure out the A/C so nights were uncomfortable. I would recommend.

Sonder Trastevere was a great place to stay for our weekend trip to Rome. Location is key when spending just a few days in any city, and this is definitely in one of the best areas of Rome if you want a more lively spot with bars and restaurants just outside. The pre-arrival experience was smooth, and the check-in / verification video call worked well too. The apartment was clean, organized and with the amenities you could expect from a serviced apartment like this. However, the kitchen area was missing a proper 'hangout' area with lounge chairs and a table, and the kitchen table and chairs were not good enough to work from. Other reviews seem to mention noise from the streets outside. This is not something we experienced at all. But it could, of course, depend on which specific apartment you are assigned. We will definitely stay in a Sonder apartment again, but would love to see more focus on the possibility to also spend time in the apartment, and not only for sleeping.

Just stayed here with my wife and two children (ages 10 and 7) in the peak of July summer travel. The place was wonderful - great location, fun neighborhood, relatively easy walk to a number of sights. I don't understand all these other reviews and think they are overly picky - most seem to complain about the noise outside and the thin walls. We used our white noise from our phone as we always do to sleep and had absolutely no problem. Would stay here again.

A clean and spacious apartment (apartment #1) overlooking a popular cocktail bar. Even though it is a 1 bedroom apartment, there are 2 x shower rooms/toilets to cater for the users of the bedroom (upstairs) and the pull out settee in the living room (downstairs). Good kitchen facilities which we never used as we dined out. Located close to many bars and restaurants that are nestled along old narrow cobbled lanes. Great atmosphere in the evening and nice for a morning stroll. Nearest Metro is approx 30 mins walk and tram stop 10 mins walk away. Only drawback was the noise from the bars which can be heard until early hours. I would recommend using ear plugs for Friday and Saturday evenings as they seem the busiest. Noise was less of a problem on Sunday and Monday evenings. Stayed Sat- Tues in May.

What a perfect apartment! I can't wait to return. Right around the corner from John Cabbot University where my daughter is studying, this beautiful apartment has the charm of old Rome paired with the the efficiency of a modern home.
