Guest Reviews
- FilipCe (10/5): -
- Branden (10/5): Fantastic place to stay on our last day in Rome. - Irene greeted us on behalf of the owner. What a sweet, caring and considerate individual who provided many recommendations on places to eat and activities nearby. She also drove us to the airport in the morning for our flight and we had a great chat with her. The English was fantastic, and very genuine experience. The pictures are deceiving in that the apartment is nicer in person. Would be a fantastic place for a long term stay in Rome. Highly Reccomend!
- Ewa (9/5): Ogólnie bardzo fajny pobyt 👍 - Super położenie - blisko Watykanu dla pobytu z seniorami . Znakomity i pomocny kontakt z właścicielem , pomoc w organizacji transferów i przechowania bagażu . Polecam serdecznie ! Mini winda - ale zrozumiale dla starego budynku.
- Paul (8/5): Mooi ruim appartement om de hoek bij St Pieter - Locatie 2 minuten van St Pieterplein, 3 ruime slaapkamers, 2 badkamers, mooie houten vloer. Goede geluidwerende en verduisterende luiken. Gezellige horeca links rechts en tegenover Douchecabines zijn smal, geen douchegel/shampoo, geen kleine snijmessen, in één kamer past het laken niet om hoog matras. Dun en weinig WC-papier.

- Katherine (8/5): Excellent location for the Vatican! - Excellent location for the Vatican and St Peter’s. Lovely restaurants, ice cream shops and coffee and pastry shops really near. The road outside is very noisy, no sitting room
- Tomek (9/5): - Rewelacyjna lokalizacja - 5 minut spacerkiem do pl. św. Piotra. Blisko restauracje i kawiarnie. Super obsługa. Idealne dla grup 6+ osób. W miarę blisko (25 minut pieszo) do bezpośredniego autobusu na Fiumicino. Przydałoby się odświeżenie mieszkania.
- JohnnyGlobetrotter (10/5): Bardzo komfortowo, przestronnie i blisko! :) Idealnie dla rodzin z dziećmi! - Przede wszystkim lokalizacja! łatwy kontakt i odbiór kluczy + oprowadzenie po mieszkaniu. Winda (przy dzieciach i wózkach DUŻY PLUS), Przy samym watykanie z widokiem z okna na kolumny placu św. Piotra. Następnie bliskość restauracji, 2 sklepów i przystanku autobusowego, z którego można dojechać do centrum Rzymu. Dojazd z lotniska Ciampino w 1h komunikacją miejską! także TOP! W ogłoszeniu było napisane, że jest pralka, niestety na miejscu okazało się, że tylko dla obsługi. A przyjechaliśmy 4 dorosłych z 3 dzieci, to też braliśmy mniej rzeczy i liczyliśmy, że będziemy mogli wyprać brudne.
- Abbé Johann (10/5): Un très bon moment dans un appartement dont je garde l'adresse ! - Emplacement idéal, à un jet de pierre du Vatican, dans un quartier certes un peu bruyant du fait d'une rue très passante, mais tout se trouve à proximité. Le prix est attractif et l'appartement est bien entretenu, et comprend tout ce dont on peut avoir besoin pour quelques jours à Rome.
- Angela (9/5): Great stay and really lovely host and welcome - Location was great and we had such a lovely warm welcome No lounge area
- Das (10/5): -
- Aleksandra (7/5): - Lokalizacja- kolumny Placu sw. Piotra widoczne są z okien i robi to wrazenie. Bezpieczna okolica pomimo ruchu pielgrzymkoeo- turystycznego, blisko do dobrych restauracji, a na parterze - lodziarnia ( raj dla dzieci i doroslych). Na plus należy dodać stosunkowy spokój nocą, jak na Rzym. Piękna drewniana podłoga- to ma znaczenie w miesiącach zimowych.Przestronne wnetrza, dobra kuchnia i dwie lazienki- niewątpliwy atut dla wyjazdów rodzinnych z samodzielnym lub częściowosamodzielnym wyzywieniem. Niestety, dwukrotnie w trakcie 5 dniowego pobytu zepsuł się bojler i rano nie było ciepłej wody- co przy pobycie z dziećmi było dużym problemem. Właścicielka szybko przysłała technika, ale ten za pierwszym razem nie przejąl się problemem i sugestiami męża ( inzyniera) tylko zresetował urządzenie i szybko wyszedł. Problem z zimną wodą powrócił następnego dnia i wowczas naprawa trwała dłużej.
Sciany apartamentu( który sam w sobie był duży, ciepły i jasny) wymagają odmalowania.

- Flóra (10/5): - Nagyon jó a lakás elhelyezkedése pár lépésnyire a Szt. Péter tértől. A közelben éttermek kisbolt taxi megálló. Ideális a turistáknak.Nagyon jól éreztük magunkat! Nem volt ilyen!

- elena (10/5): Soggiorno perfetto - Appartamento a quattro passi da S. Pietro, con fermata bus e taxi praticamente sotto casa. Ristoranti buoni nelle vicinanze. Molto spazioso, in 6 adulti con due bagni e tre camere è stato l'ideale. Servizio di check-in fatto con Irene: precisa, molto disponibile e cordiale. Sara, la responsabile, anche lei molto disponibile e puntuale con le comunicazioni. Abbiamo potuto lasciare il bagaglio 2 ore dopo l'orario std, chiedendolo in anticipo.
- Dominik (10/5): Perfetto 😁 - Dobrze urządzony i czysty Apartament. Wyjątkowa lokalizacja blisko Watykanu. Bardzo życzliwa i pomocna obsługa.

- DEBORA ROCHA (10/5): Foi fantástica! - Tudooooo!! Localização, organização, conforto, gentileza dos que nos acolheram, a atenção de Sara até o momento da hospedagem e o acolhimento da Verônica e do motorista do transfer (lamentavelmente não soube seu nome)que foi muito bom e nos deixou confortáveis e tranquilos logo na chegada!! Absolutamente nada!

- Dr Tarek Laaroussi (9/5): - L appartement est spacieux, l emplacement est bien La taxe locale qu on m'a demandé de payer après le check-in, je la trouve non justifiée, c est un coût caché qui rend l appartement cher
- Linlin (9/5): -
- Ömür (9/5): Müthiş konum - Evin konumu, bizimle iletişim kuran Irene çok ilgiliydi. Temiz olması Çamaşır makinasının kullanamamak

- Paula (10/5): Excelente ubicación - Excelente ubicación cerca de la Basílica de san Pedro!! Buenos sitios para comer El aire acondicionado puede mejorar
- Jill (10/5): So convenient and comfortable - This was a wonderful place to stay in Rome. You are less than 10 minutes away from the Vatican City. There are restaurants, gelato, shops, and a taxi stand all within minutes of your front door. Keeping the apartment cool was easy with the fan they left to help circulate the air conditioning. Would stay here again!
- Walter (10/5): - Great, near every thing, train station, food mart, Vatican
- Andrzej (9/5): -
- Oisin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Estevao (10/5): Exceptional -
- Robert (10/5): Amazing long weekend in the Eternal City, in a perfect location which has both a residential and in the thick of it vibe - Perfect location. Great size. Responsive, flexible hosts
- Asaputra (10/5): Superb house fornaci - Spacious room, big and comfortable beds, clean, complete facility such as microwave, oven and washing machine, AC and heater in every room, lift available, unit in 1st floor, internet connection really strong, the kids play games and open YouTube without problem, location near the st peter basilica, there is 1 convenient store in front of the hotel which open until 12.30 am, we are family with 7 persons, everyone like the property. Make sure you check in before 9 pm, if your flight delayed it would be a problem.
- Guy (8/5): Comfortable apartment close to the Vatican - This was a conveniently located apartment just minutes from the Vatican and with easy access to the rest of the city, with enough space for a larger family. The street outside was a little noisy but enough to bother us. There are many restaurants in the area to eat out and a kitchen in the apartment. Only complaint that we could not wash clothes there as washing machine didn’t work.
- Rachel Anne (10/5): - Older property, but clean and beautiful. Sara is very good with communication and offered private airport pickup and drop off to train station. Overall wonderful experience.
- Lukasz (8/5): Very good -
- Christie (9/5): Convenient location and comfortable accommodation - Fornaci House is in a perfect location for visiting the Vatican and St. Peter’s basilica - literally across the street. Plus, there are several very good restaurants right by the property, a small grocery store and a couple of small souvenir shops. There is an elevator which was essential for us seniors. The apartment is very basic but comfortable. Some utensils, etc in the kitchen. Decent stove, fridge and microwave. Good climate control. The staff is very responsive and helpful. It was a little noisy due to location. No English TV. Nice kitchen but no basic supplies - we bought coffee, sugar, paper towels, etc. We also had to buy toilet paper - there were only 4 partial rolls for 6 people for three days! Bedding is very basic but adequate. We could never figure out the washing machine.
- Agnes (9/5): Superb - Comfortable, enough space for 6 persons. Super nice and helpful staff.
- Greca (8/5): Very good - Location was great and host was very accommodating. Missing a few ammenities, some water or coffee would have been nice.Bed were ok for 1 night
- Yunxia (10/5): Goog expierence. - Best position for Vatican and San Peter visiting. Disponibile staff. No
- Maayan (5/5): Passable - Great location The free parking advertised was a parking lot a few blocks away with many reviews of brake ins. We selected the unit because of the free parking promised.
- Patricia (8/5): It was a good stay for the length of time we were there. - Its proximity to food and the Vatican!!! It was frustrating trying to coordinate a time to meet to unlock the apartment with the staff due to unexpected transportation (train and bus) delays that were beyond our control. Perhaps a lockbox would be a better way to do this.
- Andras (2/5): Better not to stay there - Very close to Vatical, but that was the good thing only In front of the house was a very loud street, you can hear everything inside. No relax. Extra small elevator in the house.
Kithcen badly equipped. Bathroom moistered. Everything is usedful. Better not to stay there.
- Lina (3/5): Poor -
- Darko (8/5): Very good - excellent location, very spacious and clean apartment, friendly staff, although the apartment is clean and well maintained, it is very old and needs renovation.. certainly in my case it is worth what I paid for it.
- Dan (7/5): Good -
- Daniel (8/5): Very good -
- JOHN (10/5): - The Fornaci House was centrally located right next to the Vatican (we even saw the Pope give his Sunday address) and a short walk to both bus and rail lines to get to all the area attractions. There were restaurants right down stairs. The persons that greeted us were very friendly and helpful, even welcoming us with local beer upon our arrival. The only problem we encountered was that the downstairs street door was difficult to open, at one point a waiter from the downstairs restaurant had to help us. Overall our stay was very enjoyable and I would highly recommend The Fornaci House.
- Lauraine (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anh (8/5): Very good -
- Hilary (9/5): Superb - Location is excellent, a few hundred yards from the Vatican. It is surrounded by some good restaurants and has the 64 bus stop around the corner. Quite a bit of street noise, but you get used to it after a while.
- Amanj (8/5): Very good -
- Panagiotis (9/5): A pleasant stay in a convenient location - We found the apartment comfortable for us (4 adults, 4 children). The neighborhood is fine, with restaurants and caffe nearby. The location is quite convenient for visiting Vatican, but also for accessing center.
The hosts were kind, available, and successfully responded to our demands (such as arranging transfer from/to airport).
Overall, it was a pleasant experience and we would recommend this place. No particular problems. A minor issue was that the sewage of the one bathroom was noisy.
- Erika (10/5): We had a wonderful, though short, stay in Rome. The home was perfect for my family of 6. Easy walking distance to St.Pet - excellent location for all things Vatican
- Dragutin (9/5): Superb -
- Alexandra (8/5): Very good -
- Ronald (9/5): great location, lots of things to see and a good way to spend time in Rome. - great location. restaurants and shop nearby. Very close to Vatican it’s a bit older and dark, mostly because of the temperatures you need to keep most of the blinders shut
