Excellent area, great staff and great place stay for visiting Rome. The staff took good care of us. They also allowed us to check in early. Got to rest after a long flight to Rome. The staff took care of everything we needed help with including transpoting us to and from the airport and somewhere elase. Thank you Saya, Mr. B and everyone. You made us feel like home.

I love how clean the place is and the room looked beautiful. I only hoped they have an elevator to the upper levels especially if guests have heavy luggage to carry. Other than that, I am satisfied especially that the owner was very responsive.

Great location

The location is perfect for sites in the center of Rome. It is an older building and the room is very small. Husband was a bit too tall for the bed, but the continental breakfast and service was great. Clean and very secure.

Great location and hosts

First time visitor to Rome (and Italy) before we set-off we set-up WhatsApp to communicate which was very helpful! Very convenient location. Just a few minutes walk from Vatican City, we took a taxi into Rome for €15. Emilia and Fabrizio were great hosts who met us there and were also available to message anytime. There is a shared kitchen well stocked with breakfast foods and a coffee machine but the chocolate breakfast croissants was unbelievable! They even allowed us keep our bags there while we visited the Vatican the next morning. Thanks again

A beautiful older apartment converted into three rooms with a separate bath in each and a shated kitchen. It was a little more of a cramped space than i expected but i was still thinking in North American standards. We didn't really spend a lot of time in our room anyway! Thanks to Amillia for making us feel so welcome! We recommend installing the Whatsup app before you go.

Prior to the arrival, we had private contact with the host. She gave us all of the necessary information, so everything was very clear. When we got to the apartment, we got a very friendly welcome. She showed us around and explained some things about Rome and sightseeing points. That was very helpful. Every morning there were fresh pastries and coffee. Very nice! The only thing that could of made our stay even better was the bathroom. The shower sometimes did not give us hot water. And also there is barely any room to put your bathroom things on, there are no shelves etc in the bathroom. Otherwise, everything was very clean. Proper bed, which was a treat. And every day the bed was made, when we got home. So overall, it was a very nice stay!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We stayed here for a week with our two kids. The site says laundry available it is not. There’s an in room washer but it’s against a local law to use. We were told to go to the basement which has a code that also does not work. The tub leaks water all over the bathroom. There is black mold on the tile. The furniture looks like it’s from a garage sale. Breakfast is a croissant, juice, yourgert an corn flakes. There is construction above our room the whole time we were there. Be prepared to wake up at 8am daily. We asked Expedia for a partial refund on our room which has to go through the manager of the room. We were denied anything back for the many inconveniences this place had. To note: we have stayed all over the world and the pictures on this site are of the city it self not what the hotel really represents. The girl who cleans the room and stocks it is very sweet. You will see her doing all the work. Fabrizio is the manager and will not work with you on the inconveniences. They own Individual rooms local residents also own some. We’ve stayed in Rome many times and we will not be back to this property and will tell our relatives that come to visit not to stay.

The red room is beyond livable. We were there for 1 week. the window opens up to your neighbors (no actual view) There was mold around the whole window as well. Bathroom was even worse with mold. Shower was almost black. Towels were never exchanged, we had to grab new ones ourselves. The room in general was not clean, the only thing clean was the sheets. Dust absolutely everywhere, the chair upholstery was falling apart. Don't be fooled by the breakfast. That consists of 2 croissants and thats it. The coffee machine was broken, so that was unusable. This could be an amazing place to stay in Rome, with just a little updating and cleanliness. We ended up resorting to staying out in town as long as we could and leave the room as early as possible. Be prepared to pay a CityTax that Emilia asks you after your stay, and sends you a Sumup or asks for cash to be left in the room. We really tried to like the place because of the location but unfortunately wont be coming back.
