- leone (6/5): - La posizione era ottima La pulizia niente di che. Molte parti del letto vicino agli angoli era sporco pieno di polvere e pieno di capelli.
- Jayne (5/5): Good location, poor host and facilities- would not ise again! - Location Check in
No window only access on to a dirty terrace
Room was very dark and no ventilation, clothes felt damp
No coffee on hospitality tray
Only 1 tea bag!

- Alex (9/5): - Location was great, room clean and ready, easy to gain access and perfect size. Unable to leave cases somewhere if checking out before flight. Also no iron available
- Marite Macarena (5/5): No cumple con precio/calidad - Cumple con lo standard El trato de la persona que te recibe no es del todo bueno, contesto absolutamente todo cortante o demoraba la respuesta. No fue práctico ni amable. La habitación es muy húmeda
- Sanne (8/5): Fijne accommodatie in het bruisende Trastevop loopafstand van alle highlights - Goede locatie, vriendelijke en behulpzame host die snel reageert, fijne accommodatie. Dagelijkse schoonmaak wat we prettig vonden en onverwachts bij een accommodatie als deze. Een paar zichtbare vlekjes in het beddengoed en handdoeken ook al was alles schoon. Weinig daglicht, maar vooral op pad geweest, dus geen ramp. Kamer iets kleiner dan verwacht.

- Michela (9/5): Camera pulita e accogliente, il check in è stato semplice. Posizione ottima, vicino alle fermate degli autobus e a pochi - Ottima posizione, vicinissimo alle fermate degli autobus e ai ristoranti di Trastevere Bagno piccolino
- Hülya (8/5): - It was exactly as shown in the photos There weren't enough hangers in the wardrobe.
Logging in took a little while because the host was communicating remotely.
- Chris (4/5): Not for me - It was relatively ok but needed work on cleanliness especially in the bathroom area Issues daily with hot water not being available due to the boiler being in another hotel room and they was switching it off delay making it hard work to get ready having to message the owners daily to get it turned back on overall we left and went to another hotel
- Lorenzo (9/5): -
- Ketlem (10/5): Excelente! - Amamos a estadia. Super perto dos bares e restaurantes do bairro, porém em uma rua mais calma, sem barulho.
Cama muito confortável, chuveiro maravilhoso. Limparam o quarto todos os dias e deixaram lanche no quarto.
Amamos tudo. Sentimos falta de um chinelinho.
- Alessandro (8/5): Ottima toccata e fuga - Comodo in centro a Trastevere insonorizzazione da migliorare
- Jeanine (4/5): Es war Okay aber ich würde die Unterkunft nicht meinen Freunden weiterempfehlen, da doch zu viele Punkte nicht gepasst h - Gute Lage, bequemes Bett und Preis OK. Hosts gut zu erreichen aber nur via Whatsapp. - Raum no. 2 war sehr sehr klein. Mein Koffer hatte keinen Platz im Zimmer.
- Schimmel in der Dusche.
- Keine richtige Tür zum Bad. keine Privatsphäre zu zweit.
- Zimmer sehr ringhörig. Man hört jedes Wort der anderen Gäste vom MamaHouse. Die Nachbaren oben machten sehr viel Lärm, sodass die Deckenlampe wackelte.
- Nur 1 Schlüssel. Wenn man zu zweit unterwegs war und jemand noch andere Pläne hatte, musste man sich immer absprechen.
- Keinen direkten Kontakt zu den Hosts

- Zuzanna (4/5): Was okay but wouldn’t return. - Good location Overall the place is located in a lovely area. The room looked nice in pictures and we thought it was great when we first walked in. However, not long after we noticed mould in the bathroom and lots of dust in the actual room. Another problem was the keys. We understand that it may be an older place, however we couldn’t get the key to open the front gate to work. We had ro reply on an Italian lady that lived there and she would open the door for us when she was home. She herself said that the key doesn’t work.

- Kalkidan (1/5): Stressante a causa dei numerosi problemi presentati dalla struttura - La posizione era molto comoda, mezzi pubblici vicini e facilità nel raggiungere il centro di Trastevere. La zona era tranquilla. Terribile. La struttura presentava grosso un problema di muffa che era presente in bagno e su tutti i soffitti e nei mobili. C’era un odore estremamente acre e che ci ha provocato forti mal di testa e nausea. La muffa era addirittura presente nel soffione della doccia, come se non bastasse l’acqua calda era pressoché inesistente. Come se non bastasse, la terrazza presentava feci e urine animali che hanno reso la terrazza inagibile.
Naturalmente, i problemi sono stati comunicati all’host tempestivamente, purtroppo lei ha mostrato una disponibilità solo apparente, ma non ha propriamente trovato delle soluzioni. Ci ha proposto un’altra struttura con problemi di altra natura (che ha negato anche con l’evidenza).
La luce naturale era pressoché inesistente.
Questi problemi hanno negativamente intaccato il nostro soggiorno e la nostra salute. Sconsigliamo calorosamente un soggiorno in questa struttura.
- Olivia (1/5): Terrible. Dangerous. Lacking basic amenities. Unprofessional host. - Had no hot water the first day. Left our door wide open- you could see all of our bags inside the room it is a wonder we were not robbed. We were out from 6am and only returned at 7pm to find this. The room was not cleaned and so entry is completely inexplainable. We had other guests texting me to ask me to operate the boiler in my room as per request of the renter. I was bombarded with text messages from the renter. Forced out of room which we were in due to her own mistake. Forced all of our stuff in backpacks and shoved this into the wardrobe. The list is endless. Did not reply to messages saying we had arrived. Toilet seat was almost completely unhinged. Do not stay here if you want to be able to enjoy your trip. This is the worst experience I’ve ever had and the way she treated me is completely inexcusable. No basic amenities. Unsafe. Unprofessional. Downright dangerous.
- María (5/5): -
- Susana (10/5): perfecta - La localización del apartamento perfecta, cerca del ambiente del barrio de trastevere pero en una calle tranquila para descansar. Las habitación cómoda, acogedora y con todas las comodidades.
- Mauro (10/5): - Tutto oltre le aspettative, cercando una sistemazione in zona Trastevere è veramente comoda a tutto
- Martina (6/5): Mi aspettavo di meglio - La posizione è buona la ragazza che doveva aprire il portone non rispondeva e per fortuna siamo riusciti ad entrare perché sono usciti altri ospiti, la seghetta del gabinetto era rotta e la pulizia non era accurata
- Martina (10/5): Ottima posizione, stanza molto bella e accogliente. Inoltre è presente un grande terrazzo dove poter stare la sera. - Stanza molto calda e accogliente. Era presente tutto il necessario per il soggiorno. Niente.
- mariangela (9/5): -
- Alice (4/5): - La posizione fin dal nostro arrivo abbiamo riscontrato gravi disservizi nell’appartamento, che rendono il soggiorno ben al di sotto di quanto pagato:
• sedile del WC rotto
• doccia non funzionante correttamente: il deviatore è guasto e si può utilizzare solo il soffione
• temperatura inadeguata: in stanza fa freddo e non è accettabile dover usare solo il condizionatore per riscaldarsi quando sono presenti i termosifoni
• acqua calda in bagno non costante, funziona a intermittenza.

- Nuria (6/5): Bueno pero mejorable. - Estaba bien situado El trato bastante malo. La calefacción no funcionaba y al entrar en la habitación a oscuras rompí una mosquitera por accidente, la cual tuve que pagar 150€ por su arreglo y nadie me envió la factura ni el comprobante de que esa avería en verdad costaba lo que costaba.
- Amato (10/5): -
- Zaira (3/5): - La posizione. Troppo odore di muffa . Appartamento troppo umido . Acqua del bidet non andava, doccino non andava .
- Elias (7/5): Great place to book for early check in, if you're not fussy this place rocks - Great Location and an awesome place to book if you plan on getting there early and don't mind your place not turned over. We just whatsapp'd out host and they let us in. Great little back porch to sit in. Shower is spacious and has a nice flow/attachment. Cleaned our rooms out and gave us new juice boxes each day. Shower didn't drain very well, toilet seat was very loose. We booked on short notice so once we got there we were unsure where to go, likely this was partially due to the late booking as we did not receive an email to give us check in instructions in time. Likely if you get there at their normal checkin time you won't run into this problem. Alternatively it's in stairwell C, just Whatsapp the host and she'll let you in
- VIRGINIE (8/5): - Loin de la station de Métro
- Tammie (6/5): - The rooms were private Not being met on arrival. Location from Train station and bus
- Belinda (8/5): - Goede uitgangspositie om lopend Rome te verkennen. Straatje on de hoek, waar ze en een bakker hebben en aan de overkant van de bakker heerlijk belegde broodjes verkopen. Goed bed en kussens, kamer is niet super groot maar perfect om er te slapen. Koelkast maakte veel geluid en werd na een appje vervangen. Koffiemachine op de gang. Rustig gelegen. Je kan je koffers achterlaten voor je incheckt in je kamer. Tip als je in kamer 1 of 2 slaapt: doe de luiken dicht bij je balkon. Het balkon van deze 2 kamers grenst aan elkaar en het licht gaat aan middels een sensor, als dan de buurman zijn balkon op gaat wordt je niet wakker van het licht. Kortom goed verblijf gehad. Op booking.com staat een vraag van iemand die om 19:00 uur vliegt en vraagt of ze koffers kan achterlaten. Accomodatie geeft aan dat dat op een andere lokatie kan. Echter dat blijkt niet zo te zijn. Of je moet ergens lockers zoeken.
Buiten op balkon hangt een apparaat (niet de airco) waar soms damp uitkomt en lawaai maakt. Ik vermoed iets van de boiler. Maar dat is maar heel af en toe.

- Dayana (2/5): Imposible dormir - Un sitio que aunque está cerca del centro, no te permite tener una estancia correcta. Había un ruido que no se si provenía de la pequeña nevera que tienen o de las tuberías, pero junto con la luz con detector del baño fue imposible dormir. Parpadeaba toda la noche sin haber movimiento alguno y el ruido era insoportable.
- Renato (8/5): Struttura carina in posizione centrale. Mancanza di manutenzione: c’erano diverse cose che funzionavano male o erano rot - La posizione La mancanza totale di contatto diretto con il personale

- Clermont (10/5): - The host was very informative and communicative. The room was much nicer than I expected. We had a terrace which was a lovely surprise. Not sure if all the rooms have a terrace though.
Trastevere is a really nice area just outside of Rome, right across the Tiber. Lots of lovely restaurants. Nothing

- Amanda (9/5): great stay - Nice location , great communication with staff , room was beautiful , nice extra touch was there were free snacks, milk and coffee nothing

- Neugebauer (9/5): Immer wieder Trastevere - Chiara war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, der Kontakt lief reibungslos ab. Das Zimmer hat eine tolle Lage, verschiedene Restaurants und Kneipen sind schnell fußläufig zu erreichen. Auch einige kleine Supermärkte sind vorhanden. Man kommt überall zu Fuß aber auch mit dem Bus hin. Es gab Snacks auf dem Zimmer und abends war es super leise, so dass es wirklich eine tolle Erfahrung war. Würde die Unterkunft immer wieder empfehlen.
- cohen (9/5): - The location was very good, very quiet but also so close to one of the most beautiful and fun streets in Rome!
The place was very clean and the stuff was always available on whatsup, which is important because the place is remotely controlled.
- Gabriel (7/5): -
- Chalie75 (10/5): - Tutto pulizia e confort Niente
- Charles (9/5): - Nice patio, very helpful host, left some snacks and water Ground floor, a bit dark

- falchi (7/5): Tres beau mais fatiguant sejour trop court - Quartier sympa Pas trop facile pour les clefs
- Tatiana (8/5): Perfect location for a weekend in Rome! - Fantastic location, tea/coffee & snacks provided, room was turned over/cleaned during my stay, easy communication with the host and easy check in
- Claude (8/5): - We had a small but Lovely Terrace and the gave us croissant, cookies, brownies, water, etc. The place was safe,small but comfortable.
- Carolina (10/5): -
- kelli-ann (10/5): -
- Martin (9/5): - The location in Trastevere was excellent, close to many great restaurants and a great vibe. Easy to either walk or catch the tram to the main tourist sites. Nothing all good, easy to communicate with

- Melanie (4/5): Convenient location. Fine for a short stay. - Great location! Noisy fridge and ac. TV advertised but did not work. Cannot store luggage after checkout.
- Natalie (4/5): - I wish I could give this property a higher rating — the location was great and it had a lot of potential. However, the room I was assigned had a loud, persistent noise coming from inside the walls, likely from the bathroom or plumbing. I also noticed a constant noise from the mini refrigerator. I recorded videos and sent them to the host to clearly capture how disruptive the sounds were. The host claimed that no one else had reported the issue, but I beg to differ — the noise was so loud it made it nearly impossible to sleep. I had a 5 AM Uber to the airport the next morning, and not getting any rest really impacted my experience. The room number was #3
- Helen (10/5): Fabulous apartment and extremely helpful staff 10/10 -
- Antoinette (9/5): Great Location - Great location and the property was cute and tidy. The entrance door was tricky to open.
- yannick (9/5): -
- Sergio (10/5): Inolvidable - Tenía TODO lo que necesitaba
- Kai (8/5): - Insbesondere die Lage und die Größe des Appartements für einen angemessenen Preis Check-in war mit Schwierigkeiten und Telefonaten verbunden, kleine Details (lockere Klobrille, Amaturen und Griffe)
- Giovanna (10/5): We had a lovely stay, good walking distance to the restaurants. Confortable bed. Loved the pourch in our room - Very close to trastevere center It doesn’t have many facilities, is more like a airbnb
- Emily (8/5): Overall, this apartment is conveniently located in the hip area of Trastevere. Perfect for a few nights stay. - The highlight of Mama House was how continently located it was to restaurants, bars, cafes and main attractions. The apartment was stocked with basic necessities and had a mini fridge, complimentary snacks, air conditioning, balcony and TV. The bed was comfortable and there was a wardrobe to unpack and hang your clothing. The courtyard was beautiful and the host was great with clearly communicating instructions to access the space upon arrival. This apartment was good for a short stay (3 nights max). A few things that we noted about this apartment was that there was mold on the ceiling in the shower. We had also booked the room because it advertised a balcony; however, upon arrival the balcony was dirty, had no natural light and an odd smell (also like mold). We did not end up using the balcony at all. Lastly, while this was completely out of the control of the host, the upstairs neighbours made excessive amounts of noise between the hours of 10:00-11:30 pm every night we were there. It sounded like furniture moving, stomping or a child running around.
- Ivana (10/5): -
- gianmarco (9/5): - posizione, servizi, e staff probabilmente un piccolo problema all’aria condizionata, ma credo abbiano già risolto!
- Juan (4/5): Better read the reviews - A few positives to be fair. The location is great, the place was clean and communication with the host was good as well. They also provide you with snacks and toiletries which was much appreciated. The place is far too small to be comfortable for a couple ,( room 2). It's difficult to move around, as the bed takes up almost all of the available space. The bathroom is narrow and water splashes out of the shower making it impossible to keep the floor dry. The balcony is dark and uninviting. The air conditioning barely works which was a major disappointment in the middle of summer. Additionally there was a noticeable dampness in the air. This place might be suitable for a single person staying a night or two but it's definitely not ideal for a couple, elderly guests or a longer stay.
- Pierfrancesco (9/5): Superb - nice location next to trastevere, very clean and comfortable
- Senni (3/5): Stay was uncomfortable because mould damage - Location was good, neighbourhood was lovely. Bed was good and room had all the necessities and snacks included in the price. Communication with the staff was easy and we were able drop off luggage early. Room and the bathroom especially had mould damage on the ceiling and on the walls. For a person staying more that few days it can be uncomfortable or ever harmful for their health.
- Silvia (4/5): - The stay at Mama House was soulless.There was no in-person welcome—all communication was handled remotely via WhatsApp. Check-in was delayed, and the room carried a lingering smell of cigarette smoke. That said, the neighborhood itself was charming and felt safe, which was a positive aspect of the stay.
- Moyna (8/5): Lovely stay in Rome again. - Lovely location, away from the hustle and bustle but only a few minutes walk to the restaurants and nightlife. The bathroom shower was broken when we arrived but we managed to fix the issue.
- Jacinta (5/5): Passable - The location was good with lots of nice restaurants nearby. The room is extremely small, it was a struggle to have two people with two suitcases in the room. Only comfortable for a 1 or 2 night stay. There was mould in the shower and the fridge made constant noise. There is also no natural sunlight or windows in the room.
The host could improve their communication with guests. I had confirmed the check in time prior to my arrival, however once I had arrived the room was not even ready. All access into the apartment is done remotely for check in, which meant if the cleaners did not show when they did I would’ve been locked out of the apartment as the room was not even clean and ready for check in despite the host assuring me in prior communications. Instead I was told by the cleaners that the room would not be ready for another hour, I communicated this with the host and received zero explanation nor apology.
- Fiona (7/5): Good -
