Guest Reviews

• Craig (10/5): - We had a wonderful stay at Sabrina’s lovely apartment. Sabrina was a great host, and it is in a perfect location with many of the key attractions of Rome in walking distance. Thoroughly recommended, we hope to get back there one day !
• Adam (10/5): -
• Fabien (10/5): L'endroit idéal pour un séjour à Rome - Nous avons adoré séjourner dans cet appartement, plein de charme et parfaitement équipé. La localisation est parfaite et permet de visiter toute la vieille ville sans avoir besoin de véhicule. Notre hôte nous a gentiment accueillis, en nous donnant de précieux conseils. Elle a ensuite été très réactive et bienveillante, tout simplement formidable.
• Alessia (8/5): Piacevole soggiorno - Location confortevole in posizione strategica per muoversi tranquillamente a piedi ed in sicurezza. Silenzioso ( con le finestre chiuse). Cucina dotata di necessario per cucinare. Host disponibile. Pulito . Materassi comodi. Forse x problemi di pressione , acqua calda bidet poco funzionante . Assenza appendimi o mobilio in bagno per punti di appoggio.
• ilker (10/5): - The location of the house was perfect. All the touristic sites were only 10-15 minutes by walking.
• Juanita (10/5): Stay at the heart of Rome - Perfect cute apartment close to all must see landmarks. The host was really kind and helpful. She gave us food recommendations and what would be nice to see and do.
• Tunahan (8/5): - Location is perfect, heating is good enough especially in the winter time, Sabrina is a great person and so kind.
• Obando (8/5): -
• Andrea (10/5): Sabrina was so helpful and welcoming to us and we had everything we needed - The location was great…close to public transportation lines and lots of attractions within walking distance.
• Stephen (10/5): Really good, easy access to all the sites and great food. - Great location, just the right size for a couple of days
• Dorette (10/5): Perfect place. THE spot in Rome ! - Location is unbeatable. We traveled with a baby and we had absolutely everything we needed. The owner was super responsive and found solutions to everything. Such a gem ! Everything is perfect !
• Fco. Javier (10/5): - Todo perfecto. Un apartamento súper céntrico, limpio y con todo lo necesario. Silencioso y muy cómodo Nada.
• Margarida (10/5): Como em casa - Adoramos a nossa estadia. O apartamento era muito confortável com as comodidades necessárias para podermos cozinhar e relaxar. Localização central, perto dos principais pontos de interesse e sossegado. A anfitriã Sabrina providenciou-nos o transfer do aeroporto e recebeu-nos com simpatia. 9 Nada a apontar.
• Thomas Gary (10/5): The perfect place to stay for the perfect 4 days. - The apartment was close to shopping and we were able to get everything we wanted. The location is outstanding. Within 100 meters of bus and cab stands. In a very historic area within easy walking distance and great restaurants. Sabrina keeps a very nice rental and it is truly worth it. Sabrina contacted us several days in advance and arranged for a driver to pick us up at the airport. Outstanding service. Nothing.
• Lana (8/5): -
• Gaia (10/5): Appartamento super comodo e di una host gentilissima! - Sabrina è una host gentilissima, che ci ha fatto sentire subito le benvenute a Secret Corner: un appartamento accogliente, luminoso, pulito, con tutto il necessario e in una posizione super centrale. La toccata e fuga a Roma, per un concerto, ha permesso a me e alla mia amica di scoprire una host che ricontatteremo sicuramente per la prossima occasione che ritorneremo a Roma. Grazie ancora Sabrina, per la disponibilità e la cortesia. Gaia e Sara.
• Tina (8/5): Excellent location, host extremely helpful. - Spacious, comfortable, air con and location. The noise from apartment above.
• Marc (10/5): Clean, tastefully decorated, perfectly located in the heart of Rome. - We absolutely loved the apartment, and its manager, Sabrina. My daughter & I are in the midst of a 6 week European Holiday - Rome was week 3 of 6. A Secret Corner was the perfect apartment for us - it was clean, very tastefully furnished, and, it was perfectly located in the Pantheon neighborhood, with more history, incredible architecture and restaurants than we could visit in just 1 week. We arrived at the apartment many hours after we were scheduled to, due to train issues, but once we arrived at the apartment & contacted Sabrina, she was there within 5 minutes to let us in. She explained perfectly how everything in the apartment works, from the washer to the stove to the ac & the locks, and gave us great recommendations on which restaurants to go to, & which ones to avoid. The apartment had a Queen size bed in the bedroom, as well as a large, very comfortable memory foam convertible sofa bed in the living room. There is an air conditioner in the bedroom, and a ceiling fan in the living room. Closet space was plentiful. I gave the bedroom to my daughter, & I slept on the pull out bed, and I slept very comfortably. We absolutely loved our stay in Rome, and a large part of that was because of the hospitality and kindness of Sabrina. I highly recommend this apartment, and, when I return to Rome I will make sure to stay at A Secret Garden again. Grazie Sabrina, from Marc and Sophia! Nothing
• Iryna (10/5): Як би було тихіше вночі, все було б просто супер - Атмосферно, гарний інтерʼєр, є все що потрібно туристу👍👍👍 Вночі було дуже гучно, і так цілу ніч. Неможливо заснути. На першому поверсі знаходиться якесь кафе і робітники цього закладу гучно займаються прибиранням з включенням музики, сварками, криками, піснями 👎👎👎
• Oz (10/5): - המקום של סברינה היה מצוין! סברינה מארחת אדיבה מאוד!
• Stuart (10/5): Super helpful host and location was amazing. -
• Florent (10/5): - La localisation idéale du bien, en plein cœur de Rome et prêt d'une fontaine qui a une jolie légende.
• Wendyrose (10/5): Great host and property in an excellent location. -
• M (10/5): Great apartment right near the historical centre. We were only in Rome for one night but were able to see much more than - Amazing location. Comfortable and well set up. Lovely, cozy layout with a really nice feel to it. Historical monuments within walking distance, plenty of restaurants nearby.
• Amanda (10/5): Wonderful apartment ,fantastic location and superb owner/ host - Communication with the owner Sabrina was excellent , the directions to the apartment were great very easy to find, Sabrina met us at the apartment and gave us lots of tips on great areas to visit as well as restaurants. The apartment is bright very clean and comfortable with a comfortable queen sized bed plenty of additional bedding if you visit in the colder months. The crockery and glassware are ample and all beautifully clean the sofa bed was comfortable to sit on after a busy day sightseeing and the air conditioner was very very welcome as the temperatures were very high when we visited in early June. The apartment was in a very quiet location and we enjoyed opening the windows in the lounge/kitchen and listening to the sounds of the city, the location couldn't be better, there are bus and tram stops virtually just outside the apartment which cannot be heard inside the apartment. There's a taxi rank at the opposite side of Largo Argentina, everything is within walking distance but the trams bus and taxi services are all affordable, Our stay couldn't have been better and we will be returning to this apartment in the very near future. Everything was great
• Brighley (8/5): We loved it and would book again - It’s a home! We spent the last night of 4 weeks in France and Italy here and so happy that we came across this place. It feels lived in and cozy. There was a lift as well, and like others said, the staircase is quite steep so I wouldn’t want to be carrying suitcases up there. The mattress could use a pillow topper to make it more comfortable. It was a bit firm.
• John (9/5): Superb -
• Oscar (10/5): The perfect location in Roma - Great Location
• Kateryna (10/5): Exceptional - It was a very nice and beautiful apartment just in the center of Rome. The incredible atmosphere made us feel, as we were in an Italian movie. The host was great. She met us, told us about the local places, where we can hang out and eat; markets and areas to visit. All the problems and questions, that appeared, were solved very quickly per chat. We had a lot of stuff in the kitchen, to cook. Coffee, tea. The kitchen had more tools and gadgets, than mine has 😁. I do recommend this place. It was amazing.
• Cécile (9/5): Great apartment and awesome location. Great addresses provided by Sabrina - Great location and nice host Small shower and hard pillows
• Ramya (10/5): Exceptional - Central location, quaint beautiful apartment, warm and attentive host, have no complaints at all. Will love to stay here again for sure. The building lift was not working when we went and though the apartment was on the first floor, carrying luggage up the spiral steps was little difficult
• Elisabeth (10/5): Exceptional - Splendid location and fantastic and sweet host
• Alexandra (10/5): Exceptional - Nice, comfortable apartment in a fantastic, central location!
• Kathy (9/5): A lovely location, we walked into central Rome in 30 minutes. Plenty of restaurants and things to see close by. The buse - What a lovely little apartment, hidden one street away from a main area with plenty of restaurants etc. The host met us on site, was very friendly and helpful The mattress and pillows could do with an update. Either a door to the bedroom or better curtains on the living room window would be helpful for those like me who aren’t used to a lot of light when sleeping
• Enrique (10/5): Secret Corner is perfectly located, within walking distance to Rome's main attractions. - Location was perfect and Sabrina was an excellent host! Not a single complaint. Everything was great!
• Yan (8/5): Great trip in Rome - A really wonderful place that we can find the fabulous historical moments just around the corner.
• Phuong (9/5): Excellent - The location is very central, close to everything, the kitchen is really spacious and ready for cooking with all facilities and cooking basics such as oil, salt, pepper… , the owner is excellent helpful and nice The location is a bit tricky to find, but with help of the owner, it will be ok
• Liam (10/5): Exceptional -
• Michelle (10/5): Sabrina was a great host! Thank you so much for our stay it was lovely. Wish we could have stayed longer - Great location, cozy home
• Clayton (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ana (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely apartment with amazing location! We had a great time
• Courtney (10/5): Fabulous!!! - The location was perfect! We walked everywhere!
• Michael (9/5): Faultless - Sabrina was extremely responsive and very nice and easy to communicate with - Excellent location - comfortable, quiet and secure Nothing
• Luc (7/5): Good -
• Robert (9/5): Superb -
• Deedra (10/5): A Roman Oasis - We loved our stay. The location is excellent because buses and trains to any part of the city are steps away. There are good restaurants and a grocery nearby. It is centrally located within walking distance or a short bus ride to all of the sites you may wish to visit in Rome. The apartment is well equipped with a very usable kitchen; including pots, pans, silverware,and dishes to prepare simple meals. There is no oven. Mostly we prepared breakfast and some meals we bought prepared and heated in the microwave. There were plenty of condiments, oils, and great coffee at our disposal. Since we travel with carryon only The clothes washer was greatly appreciated; it is a Bosch and does a great job. There is no dryer but most everything was dry within a day or less. Sabrina is an excellent host. She met us at the apartment and took plenty of time to show us around. She showed us how to work the equipment in the apartment and even walked us to some nearby restaurants. She was also on call and checked in to make sure we were enjoying our stay. There were plenty of towels, soaps, and shampoos for our use in the restroom. The water runs with good force throughout the apartment. Everything was very clean and tidy. The apartment was up stairs but the elevator or lift worked well. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it as a stay to friends and family. The property is centrally located which means there is a lot of city activity. Although muted we could still hear some sirens and people talking outside. Turning on the air fan helped greatly to mask the sounds. The easiest option for entering the apartment was a small walkway. It seems this area is sometimes used as a hideaway for people to meet up as in the morning we found discarded bottles and the smell of urine was rather strong. This was always cleaned up by about 08:00. At no time did we ever feel unsafe and this shouldn’t be a reason to not stay here. The bathroom is good sized with both a toilet and bidet. The shower is rather small and was a bit difficult to get my Rubenesque figure in and out.
• Jaydcl (10/5): Exceptional -
• Anonymous (9/5): Unique accommodation with a amazing host in a great location. - Fantastic facilities for a family of three. The host was very helpful and replied to all my messages in a timely manner. The accommodation was in a central location but was quiet enough to facilitate a jet lagged toddler. Nil.
• Sean (7/5): Good -
• Xiaowen (10/5): Exceptional -
• William (9/5): Met all of our expectations in the perfect Rome location. - The location was terrific, in the center of everything. The unit is well-maintained and very functional with all the kitchen utensils we required. We had great communication from the host, who was available for help and advice at all times. The unit is a bit cramped for a family of four, if the couch is being used for a sofabed the only seating options are the kitchen table chairs. The shower is very narrow, it would be a challenge to use for someone significantly heavier than average.
• Ahmad (6/5): Pleasant -
• Yael (7/5): Good - Sabrina was a great host. Responsive, generous, and kind. The apartment is located in an excellent central location. It is spacious and cool. The beds were comfortable and the kithchen facitlities were adequate. The major (and very big) problem was the shower. There wasn't enough hot water and, one had to operate multiple taps in the sink or bidet to have hot water in the shower which was awkward and inconvenient. Also, it was impossible to control the water's termperature, as it switches between cold (freezing) and boiling (for the duration the water was hot). We have stayed during February, so, this was very irritating.
• Anat (10/5): אין לי ספק שאחזור - the apartment was just perfect! it is the first time I’ve seen a place that really looks like the photos.. cozy, comfortable place quiet and yet very central Sabrina is caring and friendly shower is quite small broad shoulders men might find it difficult to take a shower not enough pillows not warm enough and it is not a very cold winter
• Óskar (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment is perfectly placed in historic beautiful city of Rome. Sabrine the host very helpful with our needs. Will reccomend this place to everyone going to Rome
• Gabriel (7/5): quirky flat with good location but not suitable for a family - quirky place, very close to main attractions, the owner didn’t charge us for the sofa bed which was nice very noisy at night, AC only in main bedroom, not suitable for a family
