Guest Reviews
- Alina Lore (9/5): -
- Christian (8/5): Wenn man eine Dachterasse haben will wird man nichts besseres um den Preis finden. - Sehr schöne Dachterasse und gut ausgestattet und auch sauber und ruhig. Duschkopf gehört ersetzt. Bett etwas durchgelegen. Ubahnen schlecht erreichbar.
- Daniela (10/5): -
- Ellen (10/5): - Die Unterkunft überzeugt mit ihrer Lage. Ist super ausgestattet und hat eine tolle große Dachterrasse. Alles ist mit Liebe eingerichtet und vorbereitet. Wir hatten eine wunderbare Zeit in der Wohnung🫶🏻
- Gabriela (10/5): -
- Caterina (8/5): Bell’appartamento con posizione panoramica a due passi dal Vaticano - Posizione ottima, bella terrazza panoramica Bagno un po’ piccolo
- ALLAN (10/5): -
- Nicola (10/5): - Amazing host, gorgeous property.
- Angela (10/5): Wonderful Birthday Trip - I booked this beautiful apartment for my birthday and what a treat it was! Our host thought of everything and even made sure that there were some treats for me when I arrived! We were even able to organise airport transfers through the host even though we needed to travel very early in the morning. The photos do not do the apartment justice, it is so cosy and comfortable and the terrace is truly amazing! The view of St Peter's Basilica was wonderful. Even though we were within walking distance of everything, the area is still very peaceful and safe. There are plenty of shops and restaurants in the area and Vatican City is just a short stroll. I highly recommend this lovely apartment and I will certainly stay here again on my next trip to Rome.
- Yann (8/5): très bien - très bien situé, propriétaire disponible et attentionnée ; belle terrasse avec vue sur saint pierre le bruit des trains à partir de 6h30 du matin
- Agata (10/5): Wspaniały pobyt! - Czułam się, jakby gościła mnie najlepsza przyjaciółka! Pięknie udekorowane łóżka jak w najdroższym hotelu, mnóstwo smakołyków, wino, znakomity kontakt z gospodarzem (a były Święta ;). Bardzo czysto, świetnie wyposażona kuchnia z przyprawami, kawą itp. W szafach dodatkowe poduszki, kołdry. Ogromny taras z zapierającym dech widokiem na Bazylikę. Blisko sklepy, komunikacja miejska, pociąg, no i Watykan. Jestem niezmiernie wdzięczna za możliwość późniejszego wymeldowania. Chętnie wrócę i będę polecać! Nic, ale odniosę się do komentarzy innych:
- nie próbuj na siłę ustawiać wody, pozostaw ją w tym położeniu, który zastałeś i poczekaj dłuższą chwilę - woda potem będzie idealna;
- tak, winda jest mała i ma wąskie wejście, dodatkowo chyba nie jechała aż do samej góry- nam to nie przeszkadzało, ale weź to pod uwagę;
- przejeżdżający pociąg mógłby być dla niektórych przecież dodatkową atrakcją, ale jeździł tak rzadko (może z raz, dwa na godzinę) i tak szybko (5 sekund), że tylko dwa czy trzy razy go widzieliśmy.
-poduszki mogłyby być bardziej miękkie, ale to rzecz gustu, za to mięciutkie były te dekoracyjne ;)
- Sonia (9/5): Apparemment très bien situé avec vue exceptionnelle et à deux pas du Vatican - Emplacement et tranquillité Soucis d’eau chaude
- Marie (8/5): A very enjoyable stay and thanks to the owner to be so accommodating. Highly recommend the place. - Perfect location and spacious for the 6 of us. We were allowed early check in. The owner is so accommodating and helpful with recommendations to make our stay enjoyable. Thank you. A set of stairs as the lift stopped a level down. Not ideal with big suitcases.
- Massimo (10/5): -
- Helena (10/5): -
- Jeremy (8/5): - Welcome pack on arrival. (Bottle of wine/breakfast bits) Very good communication from the owner. Apartment was in a good location to visit the Vatican and central Rome. Lovely roof terrace. Bathroom issues. Meant only 1 toilet could be used for certain functions!
- Bianconi (10/5): - Posto molto curato e accogliente con ampio spazio esterno
- Patrizia (9/5): Posizione molto comoda per Vaticano. Terrazza molto grande arredata e vista meravigliosa -
- Luis (9/5): Mejor imposible - Hay varias cosas que me gustan: lo fácil que es comunicarse con su anfitrión ilaria y la cantidad de información útil que nos manda (restaurantes, lugares que visitar, etc); la decoración del apartamento, que te ofrezca un servicio de recogida y traslado al aeropuerto, etc. Pero lo mejor sin duda es la proximidad al Vaticano, su enorme terraza desde la que se ve la Cúpula del Vaticano y la amabilidad de Ilaria. Viajar con niños siempre es arriesgado, pero en este caso a mi hijo de 9 años le encantó el apartamento!! Sin duda repetiremos en L'isola di Esme cuando volvamos a Roma!!
- Nancy (10/5): My stay was wonderful, very good staff who communicated very good information for us. It was truly a lovely experience s - I liked the layout of the apartment and the patio and porch! Wonderful view and great location. There wasn’t anything that I didn’t like.
- Sarah (10/5): - Rooftop terrace and stunning views of the Basilica were amazing
- Joanna (10/5): Napewno tam wrócę 😊 - Czysto , schludnie i przyjemnie .
Taras olbrzymi i powalający z nóg
widok na kopułę Watykanu 😍
- Celine (8/5): Ideal for 2 couples or a family with kids. - 2 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms. The outdoor was great, big and view to the St Peter Basilica. It was only accesible by bus and a bit far from the main attraction but still walking distance from Vatican and with bus ok to go more into the center.
- Anne (8/5): Het verblijf beantwoordde volledig aan onze verwachtingen ( buiten het treinspoor), correcte info. - Een zeer groot en aangenaam terras met zicht op de koepel van St Pieters. De foto's op de site waren conform de realiteit.
Een zeer behulpzame, vriendelijke host die voortreffelijk Engels sprak bij het onthaal , ook vooraf onze vragen per mail correct beantwoordde. We kregen ook goede suggesties qua restaurants.
Leuke attenties bij aankomt: fles wijn, snoepjes voor de kinderen, koekjes, chips ...
Mooi opgedekte bedden, voldoende handdoeken en toiletspulletjes in de twee badkamers ( zeep, shampoo, douchecrème ..) En belangrijk treinspoor lag op hoogte vlakbij, bijgevolg treinen die vaak voorbijraasden, was wel storend vooral 's morgens als je nog op bed lag.
Geen koffiezetapparaat, maar kleine percolator voor 2 kopjes koffie.
Geen vaatwasmachine, vaat met de hand doen.
Het dubbel bed op de tweede slaapkamers stond tegen de muur waardoor de tweede persoon over de andere moest "kruipen" om het bed uit te stappen.
Het terrasmeubilair is aan vervanging toe: alleen de ligzetel en de tweezit waren bruikbaar.
De locatie was zeer goed om Vaticaanstad te bezoeken, maar om andere bezienswaardigheden zoals Colosseum, Pantheon enz. ( andere kant van de Tiber) is het ver te voet als je met kinderen bent, of openbaar vervoer nemen ( bushalte wel vlakbij, metro te veraf )
- Alexandre (10/5): Super hôte, super communication, super vue sur le balcon. - C'était plus beau que l'on pensais. La terrasse est grande avec une belle vue, mais c'était trop chaud pour en profiter. L'arrêt d'autobus est juste à côté et il y a quelques bons restaurants à proximité. L'hôte était super réactif, le service et l'accueil parfait. L'arrivée était simple. Si je dois trouver des points négatifs, je dirais que l'ascenseur est petit. Mais au moins, il y en a un. Je pourrais dire aussi que nous étions loins des attractions touristique, sauf du Vatican. Mais cela nous donnais de la tranquillité lorsque nous étions dans l'appartement. Honnêtement il n'y a pas grand chose de négatif ici. c'était super et je recommande.
- Martin (9/5): -
- Mandy (10/5): Amazing everything you needed and more - The roof terrace was amazing. And close to attractions The lift was very small and only went to 4th floor
- Jeannette (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nancy (9/5): great location! Roof top is great for dinner, wine, & chat and overlooking the St. Peter’s Basilica. - proximity to Vatican City and many restaurants, gelatos, and grocery store. The a/c didn’t work as expected, but the owner was responsive and had it fix on the 4th day, she provided 2 fans.
- Beata (9/5): Superb - The view, big terrace and a lot of space.
- Hemalatha (8/5): Very good -
- Rachel (10/5): An amazing apartment in the heart of Rome - The space itself was perfect. 2 bedrooms each en-suite with large windows that open out onto the outdoor terrace which is huge with a clear view of the Basilica.
Really lovely touch of sweet treats, Bottle of wine, water and juices for us on our arrival.
Perfect location for doing all the tourist sites and a five minute walk from the Train station.
Great communication with IIaria who gave such clear directions on how to get to the apartment.
Would definitely stay here again. Nothing
- Rena (8/5): Very good -
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ernest (9/5): Wonderful, affordable flat with great view of the vatican. - The second restroom was not functional at the time of our visit.
- Donna (10/5): Exceptional -
- Catherine (10/5): Best city break and accommodation - Everything. Blown away by the roof terrace. Perfect location. Easy walking in to Rome centre. Nothing. It was amazing
- Casian (10/5): Exceptional -
- Alexandra (10/5): Perfect stay in Rome - Great view, 5 min walk from Vatican, very nice and clean apartment, all was perfect, the owner Ilaria a very nice person, helped us with all we've asked for. It was all perfect, nothing wrong
- Vladimir (10/5): Exceptional -
- Pauline (10/5): Wonderful place for family - The property is very close to restaurants and Vatican. Being with old parents and child its very easy and accessible by walk going to Vatican (10-15 minutes walk with Senior and child) .
Apartment is wonderful. All the the things you need are available and very easy to reach out to the property owner if needed anything. The terrace is excellent- good view of the St Peter’s Basilica Dome. Worth the money. Overall excellent,
- Carolyn (10/5): Exceptional - Within walking distance to Vatican and many restaurants Nothing
- Lou (10/5): Lovely place to call home for your Rome visit! - From the get-go, Ilaria has been very helpful and responsive. Always ready to offer her help to ensure our stay was going to be comfortable.
The apartment is nicely located no more than 5 minutes from St. Peter's square. It is also possible to walk to the Vatican Museum as we did.
There is a nearby Carrefour, small grocery stores, and a lot of food options. Loved the snacks that Ilaria put in the apartment for us.
As for the apartment itself, it is so cozy and had a lot of things we needed during the stay. Kitchen complete with an induction cooker, fridge, coffee maker, there is also a washing machine and a lot of space to hang clothes. The outdoor furniture to enjoy the sun or the windy weather. Favourite part is the terrace with a view of St. Peter's dome.
Highly recommended!! Nothing at all.
- Suvi_85 (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean and great location
- Desrosiers (10/5): Exceptional -
- Katarina (10/5): Exceptional - I liked the terrace the most, very spacious with a view to Vatican and two separate bedrooms. There's is a good energy in this apartment.
- Stuart (10/5): Fantastic accommodation, highly recommended - The owner was so helpful and welcoming.
The highlight of the accommodation is the balcony and the view. There was nothing not to like. Great location, a few minutes walk from shops and bars and restaurants as well as travel links.
- Deepanjan (9/5): Superb - The property was really nice with a huge terrace and a view of Vatican . The location is excellent. The property was out of water for a whole day (9am to 6pm) due to some maintenance work and it was uninformed. The host was also not aware of the water cut. We reached out to the host for help but didn't get any support from them. We expected at least some bottled water will be provided as an intermittent solution but that was also not done leading to huge problems and delays in our overall plan
- Karlis (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was great. The hostess is very hospitable, the location is excellent and the terrace is unbeatable.
- Cari (10/5): Beautiful and safe housing - The rooftop patio was definitely our favorite part of this property. It was big with a beautiful view of St Peters Dome. The neighborhood was clean and we felt safe even at night. Although it’s a bit of a walk to other attractions in Rome we walked or took the Lime bikes everywhere we went. Walling is our preferred travel in cities but there’s a lot of city transit as well. The market isn’t far and with the mini kitchen we enjoyed breakfast and a dinner from the market deli right there on the rooftop. We highly recommend this location!
- Danijela (10/5): Exceptional -
