Our room was clean and aestheticly pleasing. Definitely one of the nicest hotels we stayed at in Rome. Owner was very nice. Only issues we had were the inescapable issues of Rome- very noisy and you need about 40 keys to get in and out of the hotel. But a nice place regardless and we would stay there again.

Looks are deceiving
Wasn’t the best stay by far, although the room was clean, the walls are paper thin and had to listen to the people next door talk loudly till 1am each night. It was also close to the hospital so always hearing sirens of ambulances night and day. The bathrooms were not in each room but were across the hall and private. Shower drain was mostly plugged as you would only be able to shower for a minute at the most till the pan filled up to the bottom of the door and then took 5 mins or more to drain out. Called him on it the first night and the next day all he could say was it was an old building. I personally would not recommend staying here

Dear Bradley, It seems to me that you are a bit 'strict with the judgments. Probably some guest make noise and you have a temporary bed drainage of the shower but We don't deceive anyone with appearance. What you say is really offensive. Regards. Giulio Marcelli

The people are great. The location couldn't have been any better. 2 blocks from the Vatican,shopping and many other sites all walking distance. The only downfall was the air conditioning in my room did not cool at night

Nice place to stay in Rome, in a good location!
My sister and I stayed here for a few nights and enjoyed our stay! We were unable to contact the hotel prior to arrival as we were backpacking, but had no issues checking in as we were let in when buzzed within the check-in time range. Of course, as advertised, the private bathroom is down the hall, which is not as convenient as attached, but likely reflected in the price. It was walking distance to the Vatican and St. Peter's Basilica, as well as lots of restaurants and markets, and access to public transport. It was as appeared in photos and easy to find - really close to the Vatican stop from the SIT shuttle bus from the airport. There were three separate bedrooms with three private bathrooms, accessed with a personal key. Our only complaint would be that the maid moved our personal belongings when cleaning, but of course our room and bathroom being cleaned everyday is also a positive. We would stay here again!

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE
I always book a room with private bathroom, and until now, every hotel I have stayed at had a private bathroom inside the room, right? That is just comfortable, no need to put your pants on at 3 am in the morning if you had your last cup of coffee at midnight. In this case, I booked a "private bathroom" double room, but the bathroom was outside. For my own use indeed, but still annoying. Very clean hotel, smelling great all day long, can't complain about it. Lights in the corridor staying on all day and all night made sleeping a bit more difficult (had to put my pants on to go and look for the switch to turn them off at 3 in the morning). But the worst came at check out time. The expedia app on my phone showed 11 am as check out time. My wife and I were enjoying a cup of coffee when someone extremely rude knocked on the door at 10 am and just very very unpolitely told us to get out of the room and the hotel. We asked if we could please stay for half an hour, you know? to take a shower, and sort everything out, but she just made her way into the room without giving us the chance. Every hotel has the "late check out" option (with an aditional fee, of course). These people just have no idea about Hospitality! I think they should do a little research before getting into the business. A hotel has a reception, and should have friendly staff all the time. It's the make or brake of every business, I guess.
Response from Giulio Marcelli on 4 Oct 2016
Dear Juan Pablo, we are very sorry for your opinion. However, you can distinguish between what you wanted and what you have booked. We have only rooms with private bathrooms outside, our advertising is clear everywhere. Our time of check-out is 10.00 not 11.00, our advertising is clear. If you found a different information does not depend on us. If you needed a late check-out you should have asked before the last day. If you ask for an extra hour at the last moment it is hard to be satisfied. We hope in your understanding. Best regards

Homely
A lovely, homely B&B, situated within a block of apartments & just a two minute walk from St Peters.. Arrived before the 2:30 check in & there was no answer at the door. But i rang & a lovely gentleman then welcomed us. We were given a sightseeing book & street map. Bathroom is not ensuite but indivudual to your room & breakfast is delivered to you. No room tax. Would definately recommend & would be happy to stay again.

Inrresponsible Hotel
I waited for 1.30 minute and nobody show up. This a boutique hotel, so to get into the building where the hotel was, I had to wait until someone that live in the building open the door. Whoever own this place, is very irresponsible. They didn't bother to call me or just leave a messega on the door of the hotel.

It was placed very central in Rome only 8 min of walk to the Vertikan and 35 min to Colosseum. The bed was made every day and there was fresh wather, coffie and the avalible. The host was very Nice , we talked over ‘whatsApp’ and she recomented some restaurants. On the Down side there was a lot of trafic noice at Night and the bathroom is Down the hall and not connected with the room.

Etablissement charmant a coeur du centre ville de Rome, situé a 5min du Vatican. Tres bien accueilli par le propriètaire malgré notre arrivé au dela de l'horaire maximum de 20h ( 20min de retard ). ATTENTION a bien lire le descriptif sur le site de réservation, les salles de bain sont privés pour chaque chambre de la maison d'hote ( 3 au total ) mais sont séparées de la chambre par un couloir. Cela peut être rédhibitoire, mais au final pas si génant que supposée. Les chambres sont agréables mais tres mal isolées du reste de l'appartement et du couloir. Tout le monde entend tout et tous les autres.....un peu comme a la maison !! Les salles de bain sont également correctes malgré le manque d'ouverture sur l'exterieur et la chaleur étouffante au mois d'aout a l'intérieur de la pièce ( non climatisée ). L'efficacité de l'évacuation d'eau de la douche n'est pas parfaite comme déjà indiqué dans d'autres commentaires. Le système de consigne a bagages est tres pratique et nous a évités de devoir payer une consigne en ville pour notre derniere journée, vu que le logement est tres proche ( - de 10 min ) de l'arrêt de bus SIT pour le transfert a l'aéroport. Merci au propriétaire pour toutes ces réponses a nos quelques mails et ces conseils sur les restaurants locaux.

Goede prijs/kwaliteit verhouding
Prima hotel, perfecte locatie, ruime kamer met bank, tafeltje en stoeltjes. Bed kraakte wel heel erg en handdoeken werden niet ververst, ook al lagen ze op de grond werden ze gewoon weer over een stoel gehangen. Personeel was erg vriendelijk. Geen receptie aanwezig. Badkamer op de gang was geen probleem. Het is een klein hotel met 3 kamers dus de badkamer is dichtbij. Ontbijt hebben we geen gebruik van gemaakt dus daar kunnen we helaas niks over zeggen. Ik zou dit hotel aanraden voor de prijs/kwaliteit verhouding. Nogmaals, perfecte locatie!

Hotel ist zum übernachten gut.
Wenn Sie Rom kennen und in der Nähe des Vatikans wohnen wollen, ist es Ok. Haben den Besitzer nur am Anreisetag gesehen. sonst leider nicht mehr. Konnten keine Fragen stellen oder Infos bekommen. Leider konnten wir auch nicht unsere Koffer bis zum Nachmittag abstellen und es gibt in dieser Gegend leider keine Möglichkeit. Sehr unangenehm!!

おしゃれで快適で便利なB&B
チェックインと清掃以外の時間は従業員が不在です。至れりつくせりのサービスが必要な方は向きません。 しかし、その分値段も安いので、サービスを求めない方には良いと思います。 建物の入り口の呼び鈴に施設の名前が書いてあるだけで、一般アパートのような感じです。ローマに暮らしているような気分になれます。 天井が高く、家具もおしゃれで、バスルームもとても清潔でした。近くにバス停が沢山あり、便利です。

Bell'esperienza
Il gestore è una persona gentilissima, molto disponibile. I miei suoceri, americani, si sono trovati molto bene anche se hanno alloggiato solo una notte. Si la zona è un pò rumorosa ma vicinissima al Vaticano e a tutti i servizi quindi perfetta per le nostre esigenze. Consiglio a chi ha poco tempo e vuole essere vicino al centro.
