A great place to stay with character!
Posted 18 Sep 2018 on HotelsThe location and owner are amazing. The room could use some paint, but unless you are spending the whole vacation in your room, it's more the good. I would reccomend this to anyone who wants a friendly face to greet them when they arrive in Rome, and who wants to be close enough to walk/metro to the major attractions.

Standard hostel in Italy
Posted 4 Jul 2017Stay was ok, owner indicated he is getting a/c unit in near future, would definitely improve room comfort in the summer. Excellent location close to metro, restaurants, shopping and the Vatican. Shower could use some non-slip stickers.

Convenient walk to Vatican
Posted 4 Dec 2016 on HotelsThis is a great place to stay at if you are looking for value for money. Don't expect any breakfast served over here even though they advertise this place as a B&B. All we got offered in the name of breakfast when we stayed there was a coffee. Other than that the room was clean and adequate.

Great Location, Disappointing Guesthouse
Posted 17 Jun 2015
Pros: Location
Cons: See previous review which details the problems
Location: Location is the only redeeming thing about this guesthouse. Centrally located and close to Metro.
The guesthouse is essentially a hostel. The room I stayed in was basically a closet measuring approximately 6 X 10 feet (somewhat smaller than the average jail cell) giving a persistent claustrophobic sensation, no ventilation, paper thin walls where I could hear my neighbor snoring. The bathrooms (2) were located outside my cell . Liquid soap and tissue paper provided, but no towels and there was sewer gas in one of the bathrooms. The owners were amiable and friendly but only speak Italian. Therefore if you do not speak Italian communication will be a challenge. In truth the only redeeming quality is location. The guesthouse is located close to the metro and is in the central area of Rome and the sordid conditions will provide you the motivation to get up early early.

Great location, super kind owners&cleaning staff
Posted 21 May 2015Fantastic Owners and staff. Safe place. It was a good spot to lay your head and recharge for the next day in Rome. The beds are decent. The washrooms were ok. With three people in a room, it got warm. The AC didn't seem to give off cold air. It seemed to only circulate the warm air around. Very close to metro and buses. The sandwich place right beside the hostel doors is fantastic too!! Great Sandwiches.

Lovely hotel, really nice property close to all the major attractions.
Staff we dealt with did not speak any English but were still very helpful, providing maps etc.
Hotel was cleaned very well daily, excellent bathroom facilities.

Great stay! Minutes from Vatican.
Posted 28 Aug 2014 on HotelsStayed there on my last part of my European adventure, had a lovely time. A 15-20 minute walk from the Vatican. Would definitely stay again.

Great location and price
Posted 2 Oct 2013 on HotelsThis is a great place to stay if you want to be near the Vatican. Convenient to the metro lines and points if interest around Rome. I would definitely book again next time I'm in Rome.
