Guest Reviews
- Milagros (10/5): - No nos hospedamos aquí sino en este del mismo dueño: https://www.booking.com/hotel/it/the-prince-suite.en-gb.html?aid=356980&label=gog235jc-1FCAsocUIQdGhlLXByaW5jZS1zdWl0ZUgUWANocYgBAZgBFLgBGMgBDNgBAegBAfgBAogCAagCBLgChPHtvwbAAgHSAiRiZDI5ZTlhYy05YTAwLTRhNDQtYWRkOC1jMzNiNDI3NDMxOTHYAgXgAgE&sid=f26f9089ff09947ab591931a4e6e6587&dest_id=-126693&dest_type=city&dist=0&group_adults=2&group_children=0&hapos=1&hpos=1&no_rooms=1&req_adults=2&req_children=0&room1=A%2CA&sb_price_type=total&sr_order=popularity&srepoch=1744533655&srpvid=e2113d07adbd059a&type=total&ucfs=1&
Fabuloso el lugar, amplio, dos baños, estuvimos la verdad muy cómodas y cerca de todo. No dudo que si nos hubiésemos hospedado en el otro lugar hubiese sido lo mismo.
Salvatore súper atento a todo, y a nosotras nos espero su hija que incluso nos dio indicaciones de qué metros podíamos tomar y que la zona era linda.
- Alexander (10/5): - Comfortable apartment with everything you need. Easy and pleasant communication with the owner.
- Rebecca (9/5): Great family apartment in monti - Host was welcoming and informative. We arrived early but could drop our bags off at the apartment and could leave our bags there after check out for a couple of hours before our flight.
Qe liked that the 2nd bedroom had 2 single beds - not many other apartments seem to have this.
Location was good - quiet but walking distance to the key sites of rome.
We didn't do much cooking/eating at the apartment but the kitchen equipment seemed to be good. The key for the outer door was a bit stiff.
Shower was on the small side.
Was a bit worried about payment in cash and having to carry this much cash with us.
However, these are minor points and overall we were really pleased with this apartment.
- Luis (10/5): -
- Patricio (10/5): Un muy buen lugar para quedarse en Roma - El departamento muy bien equipado, la cocina con lo necesario para cocinar. En general, todo muy bien pensado para las necesidades de los huéspedes. El anfitrión muy atento a las necesidades que puedan tener los huéspedes, no sólo respecto al departamento, sino también respecto a la visita a la ciudad. Y responde rápido en caso de algún problema. Departamento silencioso, luminoso de día y oscuro de noche gracias a sus persianas de madera. Bien climatizado y con buena ubicación. Mobiliario sencillo pero adecuado. La forma de pago es un poco confusa en el anuncio. No supe como usar la ducha de hidromasaje y tampoco como cambiar el rollo de papel higiénico.
- CARLOS ROBERTO (8/5): - Apto duplo bem equipado, inclusive com lavadora de roupa. Muito próximo à Basilica Sta. Maria Majore, e não muito longe do Coliseu. NÃO TEM TV. Banheiro minúsculo e UM SÓ PARA 4 pessoas. Escadas para se chegar com malas no apto térreo!
Uma ressalva: inicialmente fomos colocados em um outro apto do mesmo proprietário, no mesmo bairro, ótimo, mas cujo preço deve ser bem mais elevado.
- Arlene (10/5): A beautiful stay in this neighborhood after a long day of seeing the sights! Great home away from home! - A very clean to edge of apartment with excellent amenities and the location. Your host is kind, providing you with all information one would need so you are very well set! Close to many attractions within walking distance. I would definitely stay there again.
- Ian (10/5): - Salvatore and Luigi could not have been more helpful or friendly.Super location with Santa Maria Maggiore as our centre.Grazie Mille.
- Kal (10/5): - We actually got an upgrade, but I imagine the apartment was as good
- Michele (10/5): Great location, beautiful and comfortable with lots of great recommendations! - Our stay at the Avalon was perfect. This was our first stop on our 13 day visit to Italy. Salvatore was very good at communicating and getting us everything we needed before our trip. Once arriving at the residence, he gave us a great map and explained the best way to get to the Vatican, Pantheon, and all the top attractions.
Convenient to the metro, the tram and an easy walk to cafes, bars and restaurants.
The residence was a perfect size for our family of five.
We would recommend staying at The Avalon and having Salvatore as your host!
- Alice (10/5): Cold AC during heat wave saved us! - Perfect launching pad for our family in Rome. Restaurants and metro station are close. AC is strong! Great little kitchen and laundry. Friendly host who was easy to work with.
- Guest (10/5): - Great apartment centrally located in wonderful Rome!
- Kevin (10/5): Great hosts,great location, comfortable and working A/C - The people operating the property couldn’t have been more helpful, I’ve never stayed anywhere else where we got attention like we did, the guys were brilliant.
It was central to all we needed, train station 8min walk, Metro 6 mins walk,
Good restaurants and bakery’s in every direction,
15min walk to the colosseum and other attractions
- Toni (10/5): Exceptional - Salvatore greeted us upon arrival and gave us very helpful information about Rome. The apartment was clean and comfortable. It is also conveniently located near the metro which can take you to all the must see stops in Rome (the colosseum is within walking distance). We would stay again if we have the opportunity to return to Rome.
- Melissa (10/5): Comfortable home in a great location - Central location near train and attractions. We had 5 adults in our party so there were enough beds in one home. The owner was very attentive and met us at the property. AC worked well which was very important for Americans traveling in the summer heat.
- Burçin (7/5): Good -
- Lisa (10/5): Exceptional - Great apartment in an excellent location! We loved staying here and appreciated the recommendations that our host provided.
- Gage (10/5): Great location, and the host was excellent. -
- Geoffrey (10/5): Great stay in Rome - Owner was very accommodating to our needs. Safe and secure area. Nothing
- Benoit (9/5): Very good! - Our booking was moved - without extra cost - to The Savoy, another apartment of the same owner. Everything was very good. Friendly and smooth communication with the owner. /
- Peter (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anna (10/5): Great option for Rome vacation if you are with family and by personal car - Thanks Salvatore! Everything was just great!
- Jeremy (10/5): A home away from home in Rome - Great location and the host was awesome. His local insights really made our trip and we felt welcome. Great history great location and great apartment Nothing
- Keith (10/5): Great comfortable location for visiting Rome - Location was great for our needs: great access to train for airport, bus and metro access were close
The host Salvatore could not have been better. He was friendly and very helpful with information and recommendations in the neighborhood. He made inquiries for us before we arrived that assisted in our travel plans. He arranged transport from cruise terminal and out to the airport for our group.
Apartment was clean and spacious, had great WiFi, and had everything we needed, the description of the property was accurate. Nothing
- Gabriela (10/5): I had an amazing stay at this apartment in the heart of Rome. - I had an amazing stay at this apartment in the heart of Rome. The location was perfect, allowing easy access to all the major attractions and the vibrant local scene. The apartment itself was spotless, stylish, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The decor was charming, creating a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The host was incredibly kind and attentive, ensuring that my stay was seamless and enjoyable. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a top-notch accommodation experience in Rome!
- Patrick (4/5): Good location, helpful owners but very noisy, with old & rusty bathroom and not fully equipped - - We really liked the family that is renting the apartment. Salvatore and his wife were very nice.
- Check in was easy and he gave us alot of tips.
- Also check out was very easy.
- During the stay and before salvatore was very helpful.
- I rate him and the way he handles things with a 10.
- Also the location of the apartment was very good. Near termini by foot. Also very central and near the colloseum.
- We liked cafe molino near the apartment, good breakfast and food in general (can recommend)
- We always take apartments for our vacations around the world, so we have a lot of experience - The apartment itself was not that appealing to us. The pictures look way better than the apartment itself. The owners made sure to have professional pictures taken, so you dont see it here, Thats why I added fotos.
- The walls need a paintjob and are dirty in the living room.
- The bathroom is verrrry old, there is even rust and dirty patches in the shower. Also the shower is very small and some of the spray spots are yellow and old.
- We couldnt sleep well for a lot of nights, as the noise from the AC units were sooo loud (outside in the courtyard area of the building are a lot of outdoor units - we never activated ours in the apartment)
- On top of that noise during the night, there were contstruction work being done with very loud noise in the morning (this is bad luck we know, but the AC unit noise is permanent). We had to use ear plugs to even consider sleeping.
- The windows are thin as paper and dont keep noise outside. So you hear everything that is going on outside with everything closed. Voices in the hallway are also clear to hear inside the flat. Nothing is really insulated. So noise was a big thing.
- The blankets are also very old and could need an update
- We also have not checked explicitly if there is a microwave, a dish washer and a TV before our booking. We thought that would be normal to have. The apartment did not say that they have those things. We have to look better in the future - but I recommend to the owner to improve this for future guests.
- There is very little natural light, as all windows are courtyard sided
- So why not zero? My rating is only for the very, very nice family and the very, very good location.
We didnt raise any of this to the owner, as we knew, nothing could be done within our week of stay. So we made the best out of it. Rome was beautiful.
- Sonja (7/5): We only stayed one night. Our host was excellent and arrange transfers for us. - Our host was very helpful and friendly. It was a little noisy at night.
- Ghislaine (10/5): Lovely stay in Rome - Central location and everything you need.
- Claudia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ruben (10/5): Great location, host and place - Location, place was clean and had everything we needed Nothing to say
- Eleanor (9/5): Would recommend: comfortable, clean, cosy. Very good for a break in Rome. - Had everything we needed for a four night stay: no need to buy soap, toilet paper, washing up liquid etc just for a few days, as you need to with some places.
Communication with the hosts was excellent and they were very friendly and helpful.
A/C was soooo good (three units, in main room and each bedroom) - we went in August so this was a godsend.
Location good, obviously dependant on where you want to be! Bit quieter than some parts but walking distance to all the major sites and very close to station, shops, ATM, supermarket and cafes/restaurants/bakeries. Small park for children nearby. Would be nice to have more natural light and a view - apartment is on the 1st(ground) floor and all windows go into light wells. Conversely, this works well for high summer as it stays nice and cool, even when the AC is not on.
Steps to the apartment so not suitable for those with mobility problems.
- Lucy (10/5): Exceptional - Salvatore was a friendly and helpful host and facilitated late check in when our flight was delayed. Accommodation was in a great location, beautifully decorated, clean, spacious and well equipped. We would highly recommend
- Julien (10/5): A great place to discover Rome - The location is perfect to discover Rome by feet. There are plenty of trattorias, stores and caffes nearby. The neighbourhood is vivid but the street in which the apartment is located is really calm. As the apartment is on the ground/first floor in an inside yard, it is not to hot in the summer. We didn't even have to turn on the AC.
Salvatore is a great host, friendly and willing to help with everything. He speaks fluently English.
- Bronwen (10/5): Small but perfectly formed apartment - Small but perfectly formed with everything you need as a base to explore the city. 10 minutes from the coliseum, 5 minutes from the metro and places to eat nearby. Ideal for us. No balcony but we knew that before we arrived.
- Dario (5/5): Passable - Bathroom also the walls need a paint job ,kitchen does not look appealing.
- Maria (10/5): Great host, we loved our aparment!! - There was an issue with the apartment we were supposed to stay at, and Salvatore had to relocate us, luckily it was not too far from the original location so it didn't affect our plans for our staying. The apartment were we had moved to was super cozy and very nice, had everything we needed for the time we stayed and Salvatore was an excellent host, helping us with some suggestions for the trip and to stay safe and alert for the pickpockets!! all good
- Milloy (10/5): The perfect place for a visit to Rome! - Salvatore is a fantastic host who provided clear and consistent information regarding the apartment, our stay, and additional information about Rome. The check-in process was easy and secure, and Salvatore accommodated our group by allowing us to check in and out ahead of schedule. The apartment was extremely clean and comfortable, and it is in a fabulous location near Roma Termini and countless sites. I recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Rome! Nothing! Everything was perfect.
- Megan (10/5): Great location, clean and comfortable - Great location-very close to the colosseum in a quiet neighborhood. The apartment is small but clean. The beds were very comfortable and the air conditioning was amazing (which we were so grateful for!). Salvatore was extremely helpful, gave us restaurant recommendations and suggestions for things to see and do. We would definitely stay again!
- Teong (9/5): Superb -
- Hannah (10/5): Great place for a lovely break! - Well equipped (we ate in a few meals) and in a good location for seeing Rome. Super friendly and helpful contact who greeted us. Paying in cash for 4 nights meant carrying a lot of cash (and planning because of withdrawal limits).
- B (10/5): Ideally located property, would stay again. Very attentive host. - The apartment was spacious, clean & well located for our needs. It's ideal for a short stay (a week or less). We were 3 adults. On occasion, there was a smell of sewage from the courtyard so we kept the windows/shutters closed at these times so no fresh air was coming into the apartment & it made the apartment dark. Presumably an ongoing problem. It wasn't bad enough to stop me staying there again though.
- Julie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gert (10/5): Exceptional -
- James (10/5): Spacious two bedroom apt on first floor of quiet building near S Maria Maggiore church - Few stairs to climb !!!
Lots of room. Bidet was great. No microwave !!!
- Walling (10/5): Great place to stay, won't disappoint. - The Avalon was clean and had all the amenities we could ask for. The apartment was quiet, only a little noise due to pre-celebrations of the new year outside. Communications we very good, check in process was easy and informative. Walking distance to most of the sites. If I had to come up with something to improve, I'd ask for a new cutting board.
- Justin (10/5): 10/10 Recommended!!! - The apartment was wonderful. It was VERY clean and had everything we needed in the kitchen for the times you want to eat in. The location is perfect. It's close to the train station, the metro, many restaurants, and historical sites. We walked everywhere from the apartment. On top of the perfect family apartment, the staff was amazing and communicated very well. From the time we booked until after we left, Salvatore was there to answer any questions we had. When we go back to roam, we will be staying there again!
- Chris (10/5): Cooler Rome weather - warm apartment. Good locality . Good local restaurants. - Very close to the main railway station NA
- Yvonne (9/5): Would stay again! - Location was wonderful,clean flat,host very welcoming and informative and greeted us upon our arrival,kitchen stocked .Lovely stay.
- De (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tim (8/5): Very good -
- Elizabeth (10/5): Would stay again! - It was very comfortable and in an excellent location. The best part of all, however, is how helpful and accommodating that Salvatore was! It is nice to get guidance and assistance from a local. It was extremely helpful. He is very responsive, so you know you will have help if you need it.
- Viviana (10/5): Salvatore is amazing. Fast response and very helpful. The apartment is comfortable and clean. We enjoyed it. - Very clean and comfortable for a family of 4.
Good location.
- Angelo (10/5): Exceptional - Location was fantastic !!. Main train station less than 5 mins walk away.
- Tina (8/5): Very good - Great location, helpful host. There is no natural light as the windows open on to courtyards, this is just the style of the building.
- Maria (10/5): Exceptional - Space, cleanliness and hospitality.
- Kiran (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ghazi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Eran (10/5): A wonderful choice for a family or couple looking for a comfortable and convenient "home" in Rome - We had a fantastic stay at this apartment - we can't say enough great things about it! It was super clean. The two bedrooms are spacious and comfortable, with cozy beds and plenty of bright lighting. The kitchen had everything we needed and the entrance room (also very well lit) was perfect, with a table for working or dining, as well as a comfy sofa to unwind on. It is also located on a small street which is quiet, yet only a few minutes from the metro and 10 minutes from the train station. There are restaurants and a supermarket nearby. The street it’s on, and the apartment itself feel safe and secure. And as a bonus, the Italian restaurant down the street (La Forchetta d'Oro) which is just 20 meters away is a lovely option for dinner.
The host, Salvatore, was incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to help us with anything we needed. He met us at the apartment, provided us with some excellent recommendations for things to do, see, and eat in Rome, which really enhanced our experience. He was also great before and during our visit communicating via WhatsApp.
All in all, we highly recommend this apartment - it's an wonderful choice for a family or couple looking for a comfortable and convenient home away from home.
- Met (9/5): good trip to Roma - Location was good and apartment was beautifully done everything was fine
- Jason (10/5): Exceptional -
- Daniel (10/5): great stay and location in Rome - it was very well located and very quiet.
- Tony (10/5): The Avalon is the place to stay in Rome. - Salvatore’s communication was excellent, so much great information. The apartment was warm and cosy, great location 10 - 15 minute walk from Roma termini. Walking distance to the Colosseum and surrounding ancient ruin sites. The metro station was close for Trevi fountain, Pantheon and Vatican. Only one minor complaint, no microwave oven. This would have been handy.
- Joseph (10/5): Faultless - Great Value.
Perfect Locatipn. Nothing
