Guest Reviews
- Nadja (9/5): -
- Oliver (8/5): Kleines Zimmer mit Dusc - Die Lage ist super. Im ruhigen Stadtteil Prati, das nicht so touristisch ist Die App zum Öffnen der Türen musste jedes Mal neu konfiguriert werden.
- Dmitrii (9/5): Very quiet apartment in a great location, close to all the main sights. There are many restaurants and cafes nearby, whi - Great location for this price no

- Nuria (10/5): Acogedora y con todos los detalles. - La ubicación es muy buena junto a la ciudad del Vaticano, zona tranquila y con todo tipo de comercios alrededor y muy próxima a diferentes zonas emblemáticas del centro de la ciudad. La anfitriona estuvo atenta por whatsapp a cualquier necesidad durante toda la estancia aunque no hizo falta. No hay nada que nos haya disgustado.
- Muñiz Alba (10/5): Muy contenta con este alojamiento - La habitación era grande, el baño también, muy limpio todo, la calefacción funcionaba excelente. La ubicación un 10. Repetiría sin dudas Lo único malo podría ser que las puertas se abren a través de una página web que si no tenes internet o no te llevas bien con la tecnología puede ser un problema pero para mí fue muy fácil
- Han (9/5): - 位置不错,也很安静 入户的方式是需要通过手机操控来控制电子门锁,有一点不方便
- Cilia (1/5): Letop!! Kamer is maar 21m2 en geen 30m2 - Locatie is opzich prima en ook rustig. Letop!!! Kamer is maar 21m2 en geen 30m2 Tja, een kamer van 21 m2 aanbieden als 30 m2 is niet echt chique!
Verder konden we op onze vertrekdag na 11 uur niet meer het appartement in terwijl onze bagage nog binnen was. In de Booking.com bevestiging stond dat we tot 12 uur konden uitchecken. Omdat het 30 minuten kosten om via de beheerder weer toegang te krijgen tot het appartement konden we onze bus niet meer halen naar het vliegveld en waren wij genoodzaakt om een taxi te nemen.
De correspondentie die we hierover hebben gehad met de beheerder van het appartement was zeer onaangenaam. Kwam erop neer dat het onze eigen schuld was. Uiteindelijk na lang zeuren van Booking.com dit bedrag terug gekregen. De beheerders zullen in hun reactie op deze review (als er gereageerd wordt) ook wel weer hun woordje klaar hebben.
Conclusie: Letop!! Kamer is 21m2 en geen 30m2.
Zolang je geen kritiek hebt verloopt contact met de accomodatie prima. Heb je een klacht dan word je zeer onheus bejegend.
- Debra (10/5): Wonderful location, great facilities & hosts. Compact unit but great for me as a solo traveller. - Very helpful staff who sorted out any issues immediately. Central location, walking distance to Vatican, great shops in the street. Quiet, secure building. As described in add. Smart tv which was good as I was sick for most of my stay. Can't think of anything.
- Carolina (10/5): Perfecta estancia para visitar Roma !! - La ubicación es perfecta. Una zona tranquila rodeada de tiendas y cerca al vaticano Un poquito de polvo en algunos lugares de la habitación
- Valentina (7/5): Bene location top - La posizione è veramente perfetta, la camera era pulita è stato veramente semplice! La stanza era un po’ umida ho provato ad accendere il condizionatore, ma non funzionava bene. Credo per il resto sono stata bene.
- Ely Salem (8/5): - الموقع النظافة
- Maria Eugenia (7/5): - Clean and comfortable
- Nina (8/5): - Huone oli sisäpihalla, mikä takasi rauhallisuuden. Sijainti oli erinomainen. Yksinmatkustavalle sopiva, kahdelle voi tulla hieman ahdasta. Iso ja tilava kylpyhuone oli hyvä. Ilmastoinnin käyttöohjeet puuttuivat, mutta sain laitteen toimimaan.
- Lara (9/5): Great! - Location, easy to check in and to access the apartment Bed is a bit too soft
- VENTURA (10/5): Tutto perfetto. Se ne avrò la necessità sceglierò con piacere la stessa struttura. - Arredamento di buon gusto. Non mancava nulla. Stanza molto silenziosa. Letto comodo. Ho gradito molto la presenza dei libri e di tutto l'occorrente per le bevande calde. Il check in automatico, se inizialmente poteva sembrare complicato, è stato semplice e mi ha permesso assoluta libertà in merito al mio orario di arrivo in struttura. Ho avuto tutte le info utili (con tanto di video illustrativo) per poter accedere in autonomia. C'erano delle macchioline rosse ( sembrava colore a matita) sul muro della camera (quello tra la camera e il bagno).
- Gabriela (10/5): -
- Erzsebet (10/5): - Ubicación genial.Hemos recorrido la ciudad andando sin problema.8 min andando el Vaticano. Cama cómoda,habitación amplia y muy limpio todo.Personalmente para mi el sistema de apertura super cómodo, abrir/cerrar desde el móvil.Asi no te preocupa llevar llaves encima.Lo recomiendo 100%.Repetiremos

- pavlos (10/5): Αν δεν θες μπουφέ ξενοδοχείου αυτό το διαμέρισμα είναι ιδανικό - Ήσυχη τοποθεσία,άνετο και καθαρό δωμάτιο ,άνετο λουτρό,με πλυντήριο για όποιον το χρειαστεί,καφετιέρα με καφέδες και βραστήρα.Μεγαλη smart tv Η πρώτη μερα που χρησιμοποίησα το διαδικτυακό ξεκλείδωμα
- Ihor75 (9/5): Everything was excellent - Location in the city center, everything within walking distance, including public transport. At the same time, the city noise does not reach the apartment. Spotlessly clean. Excellent, comfortable mattress. -
- Full Of (9/5): -
- Delfina (10/5): Well located and very comfortable - Very good location, super clean. Extremely comfortable bed!
Also the virtual key is very handy, we were able to check in earlier because of that
- Hysh89 (9/5): very nice, would choose this place agin in the future - location is amazing! staff is also very responsive and helpful the digital key was a bit too complicated to use the first time;
- Gordana (9/5): Superb - This accommodation is located in the Prati district. It's in a great location and close to all the main attractions in Rome, with the Vatican just a 10–15 minute walk away. The neighborhood where the apartment is located is truly lovely and has everything you might need. The host was very accommodating and flexible — we were able to leave our bags before check-in, as we arrived in the city very early that day.
The apartment was perfectly clean and quite comfortable for our short stay — just what we needed.
As for entering the apartment, you do need internet access, but it’s really not complicated at all, as the host sent detailed instructions via WhatsApp the day before our arrival, and it turned out to be very practical. Everything was good!
- Amy (10/5): Exceptional -
- ג'ני (10/5): Exceptional - It was amazing
Very clean and nice room
Very comfortable Everything was good
- Js (8/5): Very good -
- Silvina (8/5): Excellent location to stay in Rome although a bit small - The location is great. I know Prati and chose the Airbnb for its location. It is cute, good size bathroom, very clean. I found the room to be small for the two of us. With luggage for 45 days in Europe we could not walk easily inside. It is basically a room with a bathroom. I would like to have at least two glasses for water and two tea size cups to have some tea that the owner generously offers. No microwave, no little table to eat a snack makes it difficult to value the location as an appartment. It may very well serve the purpose for other people since it is a clean and perfectly located facility. The owner was very nice and communicative at any time. Beware of this: The rental uses a keyless system that requires that you have wifi or data active to enter and open all 3 doors all the time.
- Piotr (10/5): Exceptional -
- Julie (9/5): Superb -
- Elisa (10/5): Great room for city trip - Central, clean, safe, quiet
- Agnes (9/5): Superb - The apartment is very clean, in an old but charming building. Everything in the apartment is new and equipped with everything you need. The location is about a few minutes from the subway and a 10-minute walk from the Vatican and 15 minutes from the center.
- Muzaffer (10/5): Exceptional -
- Federico (7/5): Good Location but bad administration - Good quality price residence!
Perfectly located with a clean and cozy apartment! No transparency about hidden commission during the payment of the residence tax. We had to pay 20% more over the residence tax.
Self check in too complicated and it required to many steps and picture.
App and hardware not intuitive
The "Breakfast" provided and not refurnished was not enough for the number of nights we stayed!
- Anirudh (5/5): Mixed Feelings... Good and bad - The positives
1. Great location, close to all major attractions.
2. The building is like a fortress, once inside you surely feel safe.
3. It's nice and quiet.
4. The hosts are great, our flight was delayed and we arrived way past midnight but they were still available. 1. The WiFi was down for the length of our stay.
2. The apartment gets no cell signal whatsoever, so if the WiFi is down you'd have to step outside the building for the smallest of tasks on your phone or laptop.
- Natalia (10/5): Clean, well located, and spacious! - This location exceded our expectations. We were mainly looking for a clean, comfortable and safe place to stay given we were going to be out and about most of the day and this was perfect. The apartment was spacious so my friend and I weren't bumping into each other at any given moment. This location provided us with slippers, clean bathroom (with a clean seal on the toilet), clean sheets and towels, and a bonus washer inside the bathroom in case we got anything dirty. Kitchen was fully equipped and even came with a complementary coffee machine. The host was great at responding and the automated entrance allowed us to arrive with any complications given our flight landed close to midnight. Rooms have heaters in case it gets really cold and you also have the ability to open the windows slighly in the case where ti can get toasty inside. Highly recommend this place! There was nothing we did not like - all aspects of our stay were phenomenal! But simply two recommendations: 1) Our clothes were wrinkled up and we didn't find a steamer or an ironing board/iron.
- Khalil (10/5): Exceptional - Everything its clean and just perfect, the area was so calm and full of safety the owner was gentle and friendly Nothing
- Birute-daiva (9/5): Superb -
- Konrad (8/5): Very good -
- May (9/5): Superb -
- Allen (8/5): Very good - Excellent, quiet apartment, good location, fairly close to the Vatican. Had all required facilities including a large fridge, microwave, kettle etc. The locking system was a bit quirky, I could see it had potential for 24 hour ease of access but it took a few goes to get it working. You really need internet access as you approach the building, and inside the courtyard. Problem is mobile data and wifi reception are both patchy inside the courtyard.
- Mircea_mogosiu (9/5): Wonderful Location & Stay - Ideal location for sightseeing; Vatican City, Piazza del Popolo, Castel Sant'Angelo, Tiber River, Villa Borghese at a walking distance (10-15min) and Phanteon/ Fontana di Trevi/Piazza di Spagna 20-25min walk.
We used the Metro just for Colosseo, Foro Romano & Campidoglio
Also close to Metro station (7min walk), Fiumicino Airport Bus (7min walk - Via Crescenzio), lot's of market stores and shopping stores in the area.
Complete facilities, as you have from Fridge to Cofee machine up to Washing machine.
Not loud area as it's not with view at main street which is verry loud and dirty.
For garbage disposal there are bins exactly on the main street as you exit the building.
Verry nice host! Helped us with our requirements and constantly checking with us if we're ok.
Keyless system worked perfect and exactly as per the steps received; it's just a matter of reading all the info and you'll get it from first time - access link shearable so all guest can use it (wrote this because I've seen some negative reviews regarding this but we never had any issue during our 7 night stay) Nothing major besides a few subjective things like:
- water heating system took a few time to understand it as you'll need to wait a bit until you can say hot water continuously comes.
- radiators heating not really controlled by the guest as there are daily time intervals when the heating was available and over the night was not one of these intervals, but we had it from 5pm till 10pm and then again from 6am till 10am (mid March)
- as the floor is only sandstone it would work a bit better with a carpet or 2, or another type of slippers than the classic hotel ones :)
- Norbert (9/5): Superb -
- Diane (5/5): Difficult entry (even person staying in other apt said she had trouble). - location was good. once inside, it met my needs, although I couldn’t figure out how to use hot plate. Direction would have helped. difficult to get in to. directions could be better. once in the door, make sure you know which apt you are getting in to. know that owner uses “What’s Ap”.
- Oona (9/5): Superb - Great location. Very quiet appartment and good bed. The host was incredibly friendly, available and helpful.
- Janina (10/5): Exceptional - Quiet place, clean, tidy apartment, we found everything we needed A bit far from the main attractions (Coliseum, Trevi fountain, etc)
- Marek (5/5): Passable - small cozy apartment well equiped, very quiet thanks to the atrium, location close to the Vatican, good response from the owner the bed in the family room is very unfomcortable, they put two single beds together and put one doublebed mattress on top, so there is a bump in the middle of the bed and the mattress is laid out. We stayed in the apartment for a week, it was terribly uncomfortable
- Kristina (9/5): Superb -
- Cristina (10/5): Exceptional - Great location; easy check-in.
- World_traveler45 (8/5): Big,safe, clean, private place in a good neighborhood.Not for technophobes or very sensitive noses. - If you want a very private place, this is it. We heard no sounds from neighboring apartments or the courtyard. It is huge compared to a normal hotel room. It is pretty clean. There is a big fridge. Dishes and cutlery are available. The neighborhood is upscale and there is plenty of shopping all around. A lot of restaurants are within 5 minutes walking distance. We are fairly fit but older and we were able to walk to the main attractions such as the Colosseum (a bit far for us but doable) and the Vatican (quite close). The bed is modern and comfortable. The wifi works well. There are two TVs that work well. The walk-in shower is suitable even for older people. The heaters work well. There is a washing machine with soap which was super helpful. The host was nice chatting over WhatsApp because we had difficulties entering the building. It is a bottom-floor apartment and although it is clean, there is a strong musty smell (in February). I am probably too old but I found that never meeting the host (no idea if they were in the building or in Timbuktu) and having to use a phone to enter the building was peculiar and annoying and we had difficulties with it. I was always worried my phone would run out of battery before returning to the hotel. A good old-fashioned greeting and key would have made me very happy. Some detailed cleaning could be improved such as the coffee maker being half full of water with an empty capsule inside and the shower floor and base of shower doors. The shower floor is very slippery -- providing a mat would be safer.

- Özlem (10/5): Exceptional -
- Meitar (9/5): great location, would recommend to a friend - very good location, felt safe around, we are both young and walked to each of the attractions. Having a TV was a bonus, also managed to do without a fridge but it could be useful. none besides above.
- Krzysztof (10/5): Exceptional - tranquil, clean, close to the Vatican and various public transport means
- Kevin (8/5): Very good -
- Theresa (3/5): Great place - Its a nice little place which are close to the Vatican. The room is very nicely decorated and we got a hotel feeling staying here.
