The dinner in the restaurant was tasty and nicely arranged. The service was beyond disappointing. The rejection was palpable.

Ended up here trying to find a place to eat that was open. Good surprise! Very good food, including nice local options, very reasonable priced and super friendly staff. We enjoyed it and are recommending the goat milk ice cream :-)

Very nice area, friendly service, rarely tasty food. Location is perfect if you have 2-3 days to visit surroundings of national park. The only minus is that there is not a lot to do in the manor itself and rooms are a little bit old. Rooms in the first floor have private terraces which are very nice. I would come back here again.

Santa Maria in Trastevere

The Basilica of Santa Maria in Trastevere is one of the oldest churches of Rome. The basic floor plan and wall structure of the church date back to the 340s, and much of the structure to 1140-43. The first sanctuary was built in 221 and 227 by Pope Callixtus I and later completed by Pope Julius I. 

The inscription on the episcopal throne states that this is the first church in Rome dedicated to Mary, mother of Jesus, although some claim that privilege belongs to the Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore. A Christian house-church was founded here about 220 by Pope Saint Callixtus I (217-222) on the site of the Taberna meritoria, a refuge for retired soldiers. The area was made available for Christian use by Emperor Alexander Severus when he settled a dispute between the Christians and tavern-keepers.

The church underwent two restorations in the fifth and eighth centuries and in 1140-43 it was re-erected on its old foundations under Pope Innocent II.
