B&B Insula Portus

Super-nice owner. Very helpful - he helped us with ordering a local taxi to get to the Fiumicino airport (cheaper than airport taxis), gave us directions where to eat local food. The room was super-good. Tha bathroom was super clean - just like in hospital! Breakfast, in a form of travel bag (we've been learning very early), was very tasty.

Pot of hot water, huge cup for tea, and cookies were an awesome surprise and treat upon arrival. Much needed and appreciated! Arrived and departed in the dark so I was disappointed I did not get to see much outside. Prompt 5:54am pick up for ($15) transfer to airport for 8:30am flight. I could have left later because it is less than 10 min. to A/P but wanted to be sure.

Booking.com confirmed my reservation but the B & B does not take AX. That is all on Booking.com. Booking..com should not give a confirmation if the property does not accept a payment. I checked the reservation a couple of times and did not see any messages that it was not accepted. (until after I arrived) It is a good thing I had cash left at the end of my trip. Not everyone has Visa, MC, and cash in their pocket. I would have been in a sticky situation if I did not have the $100 cash, alone and 8:30pm, in an unfamiliar area, in the dark. Shame on Booking.com.

Good room, helpful owner gave us some drinks when we arrived

WiFi didn't work. Nobody spoke any English – neither the man that was there, nor the person who answered the phone when we called to ask a question. That's a bit weird for the place near the airport where many foreigners who don't speak Italian stay Also it was quite noisy because of busy street outside, hard to sleep even with earplugs.

Clean and comfortable

This location is fine if you have a car but is not a good place if you are relying in public transportation .
