Guest Reviews

• Daniela (9/5): Mittendrin in Rom, sehr zu empfehlen - Die Lage ist super und die Zimmer und die Küche sind super ausgestattet! Die Betten sind sehr bequem und das Bad ist sehr schön. Unser Vermieter hat uns schon erwartet und uns tolle Tipps gegeben. Man ist mittendrin im Geschehen (für Langschläfer empfehle ich einfach Ohropax für morgens;-)).Dafür gibt es jede Menge Restaurants, Bars und alles, was man braucht, direkt in der Straße. Die Metro, viele Bushaltestellen und die Straßenbahn sind in wenigen Minuten zu Fuß zu erreichen, also perfekt für alle Ausflüge. Der Termini ist in 15-20 min zu Fuß zu erreichen. Man kann auch in der Straße schon mit dem Sightseeing starten (San Clemente, Basilica San Giovanni in Laterano, Colosseum:-). -
• Guest (10/5): - Все понравилось. Отличное расположение, близко до всех достопримечательностей
• Castro ortiz (7/5): -
• Majella (9/5): I would definitely stay here again - Everything was perfect great location lovely host
• Vasilev (10/5): -
• Lara (10/5): Amazing! - Perfection. Everything was perfect. First of all, the location – everything is within easy reach, or better said, within walking distance. The accommodation is about a ten-minute walk from the Colosseum. Just a few houses away there’s a small grocery shop. There’s also a metro station nearby – although you don’t really need it, since you can visit all the main attractions on foot. About the accommodation: we stayed in a room with a private bathroom located outside the room. The room was perfectly clean and had everything you need for a comfortable stay – a cozy bed, air conditioning/radiator, wardrobes, a desk, a smart TV, a mosquito net on the window… We knew that the bathroom was outside the room, and it didn’t bother us at all, as it was right next door. We never met anyone in the hallway. You also get your own key to lock the bathroom. The bathroom is equipped with towels and shower gel/shampoo. The accommodation also has a shared kitchen, which is just as clean and fully equipped with everything you might need. There’s coffee, tea, sugar, salt… all available for use. The kitchen includes a stove, microwave, and electric kettle. I’d like to point out that, despite the accommodation being fully booked, it was peaceful and quiet. The only thing worth mentioning is the noise from the street – but of course, that’s beyond the host’s control, and it becomes much quieter once you close the window. About the host: the host was very kind, always willing to help, and shared some useful tips about visiting Rome. If we ever come back to Rome, we’ll definitely choose the same accommodation again. Highly recommended!
• Guest (10/5): - La situación y la amabilidad de la persona responsable
• Nichlas (7/5): Fine rom med bra beliggenhet og hyggelig ankomst - Hyggelig velkomst og bra beliggenhet. Rent rom og enkelt å få tak i hyggelig eier. Veldig nærme Colosseum og fine restauranter i nærområdet. Knirkete seng. Høylytte gjester etter leggetid (ikke noe eier kan ta ansvar for). Tynne vegger som gjør at du hører andre naboer.
• Hugo (9/5): Foi tudo excelente! Esperamos um pouco rua para entrar no prédio, mas a hospedagem é ótima. - Localização muito próxima do coliseu. Não temos onde esperar o anfitrião chegar com as chaves.
• Markus (10/5): -
• Brenda Vazquez (8/5): - Excelente ubicación a 5 minutos del colisseo caminando y con opción a metros muy cercanos Que el baño se encontraba fuera del cuarto y eso quitaba un poco la privacidad
• Anna (9/5): -
• MARIANNA (10/5): - The room was very new, extremely clean, and in a very convenient location. We were completely satisfied with our stay, everything was just as expected, and we had no complaints at all. We would definitely choose it again in Rome!
• Kirandeep (10/5): -
• F (8/5): -
• Elke48 (10/5): Clean, Comfortable, Perfect Stay. - Location was great, all you need along St. Giovanni, close to the colosseum. If you like walking this is the perfect place to get to central Rome within. 15/20 mins. I did not use the metro, walked everywhere. The host met me for a late check in, I phoned and he was there wishing 5 mins to let me in and explain everything. Nothing I didn’t like.
• Timothy (9/5): Excellent location and great to deal with. - Excellent location - a short walk to the Colosseum or San Giovanni and close to multiple metro stations and bus stops. The shared kitchen facilities are useful.
• Rubio (10/5): Apartamento cómodo, limpio y moderno en el centro - Cama cómoda, apartamento limpio, reformado y moderno. Smart TV muy grande, calefacción y aire acondicionado, buena iluminación. Muy buena ubicación. Se siente como una habitación de hotel.
• ARTUR PIĄTEK (9/5): Super miejsce , z pewnością tu wrócimy. - Bardzo miły i kontaktowy gospodarz, natychmiast odpisuje , cały pobyt opiekuje się swoimi gośćmi. Zarekomendował super miejsca gdzie mogliśmy zjeść smaczne jedzenie. Gorąco polecam ten apartament.
• Bogdan (10/5): -
• Radovan (10/5): I highly recommend it! - Everything was great. Excellent location, cleanliness, security... The room is small, just enough for a single traveler. Everything was fine. On the last day, there was a lack of communication with the owner (I had a question about the airport transfer), but we can probably explain that to the bad side of the app, and it certainly didn't spoil the overall impression.
• Griet (9/5): -
• buchra (10/5): Excelente - Alojamiento excelente. Limpio, moderno, ubicación buena y el anfitrión (Piercarlo) muy atento y agradable. No reproches.
• CHAYKA.TOP (9/5): -
• Michal (9/5): - Nice, clean and modern looking room. AC worked great, bed was comfy, good facilities. Great location, close to restaurants and colosseum, other points of interest easily accessible by bus. Helpful host, all recommendations and advice were much appreciated Issues with front door handle and lock
• Max (10/5): Amazing - Very clean and modern room. The kitchen facilities were amazing; had everything I needed to cook. Bed was small, but very comfortable. AC worked great. Host was very helpful. Location is very central (can see the Colosseum from the street) but not too loud. Close proximity to grocery stores, restaurants, and public transport. The door to the apartment wing was difficult to unlock.
• Victor (9/5): -
• Catalin (10/5): -
• Addonizio (10/5): - La ubicación es excelente. El alojamiento es muy cómodo, todo nuevo y súper limpio. Super recomendable.
• Guest (10/5): -
• Yamit (9/5): -
• Klarić (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment was great, clean and tidy. Location was perfect, there was even a bus stop right infront of the building. Host was helpful and fast to respond to messages.
• Katarzyna (10/5): I highly recommend this property for your holiday's in Rome. - Location and fantastic customer service
• Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional - Great hotel, perfect location and host very friendly and helpful.
• Kevin (10/5): Relaxing and central - Clean tidy, and the host was very gracious and even checked us in very late at 2:30am! Was always checking in to make sure our stay was comfortable. Also gave us recommendations which was a nice touch. Definitely recommend! More plug sockets, there are the smaller size tho.
• Anonymous (10/5): A thoughtfully prepared space offering convenience and comfort during my stay in Rome. - The accommodation was very clean and well-maintained, which was important to me. The facilities were thoughtfully set up for travellers, including an equipped kitchen with modern appliances, laundry and ironing equipment, and useful supplies provided in the cabinets that I didn’t expect but were really helpful. The room was comfortable, and the air conditioning made a big difference during my summer stay. The fresh, renovated interior design created a calm and pleasant atmosphere, which was a nice contrast after long days in the busy, crowded streets at work. Staff were helpful and responsive. They assisted with my late check-in, and the information they sent in advance about local restaurants and a 24-hour supermarket was practical and saved me time. They also followed up during my stay to make sure everything was going smoothly, which I found convenient. Overall, it met my needs well and was a practical choice for my trip.
• Jamy (10/5): Super stay - Everything was super, te room was super clean, location was super to just do everything on foot & the staff was fenomenal. Next time i am in romr i will definently get a room here again.
• Davtyan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect! The accommodation was very clean and located in a great area close to everything we needed. Nothing
• R (10/5): Exceptional - Property is very clean and tidy. There’s a small lift that is really helpful with luggage. Well equipped kitchen with washing machine. Great bathroom and comfortable beds. Close to great eating places. Close to places of interest with others easily accessible with bus, tram and metro near by. Our host Piercarlo was a delight to deal with. Nothing.
• Mauro (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lumi (8/5): Very good - Great place if you want to stay close to the heart of Rome. Owner Domus lulia is friendly and communicative, which made the stay pleasant. Thank you!
• Zoe (10/5): Seeing the Colosseum from the street is a surreal, unique experience - Great location, great facilities, very helpful host. We had been travelling for over four weeks by the time we arrived here and it is by far one of the best places we have stayed. It was a treat to have access to a free washing machine and a fridge, with great facilities in the bathroom. The host gave us a list of local recommendations which were really useful too (we went to two of the recommended restaurants which were wonderful). Highly recommend!
• Attila (8/5): Very good -
• Sergio (10/5): Una vacanza perfetta in un bell'appartamento. - Pierre Carlo was very helpful. He went out of his way to meet me at the apartment earlier than the check in time because I arrived early. He gave advice where to eat and where the nearest supermarket wad.
• Greg (8/5): Very good - Convenient location to trains and attractions. It's a room inside a large apartment with a shared kitchen area. it worked fine for us.
• Azra (8/5): Amazing location, great host, but too much noise from outside - The location was great, the host was amazing, and the bed was comfortable. There is a lot of noise happening. The room is on the ground floor and you can hear everything. From cars, people shouting, and a mechanic's car repair shop that is just across the room.
• Gemma (9/5): Superb -
• Michaela (7/5): Great location, decent room with unattached private bathroom and kind host. - It was incredibly close to the coliseum. It felt safe overall. Nice to have access to a washing machine. Host was incredibly helpful and kind. The listing did not include the fact that the washing machine and kitchen were shared, and our bathroom was private but not attached to the room itself. We learned this upon arrival that our room was the only one without an attached bathroom. The shower also needed a good deep clean.
• Maryna (9/5): Superb - This is the best option I’ve found in Rome: 2 minutes from the Colosseum, a 24-hour supermarket, and lots of cafés and bars. We shared the kitchen with other people living in the apartment, but I don’t see it as a downside. The room has everything we need: air conditioning, wifi, plenty of space. The apartment owner is a separate advantage - friendly and always ready to help with anything. Communicating with him was an absolute pleasure. Highly recommend this place. The only downside is that you can’t really sleep in. The window faces a street with a car service station, and it gets loud in the morning.
• John (10/5): Great location, clean bedroom, private bathroom. Theres also a shared kitchen which is well - Clean room , great location near metro and other attractions. Nothing
• Stefana (10/5): Great Stay in Central Rome Apartment - Great location, walking distance to Colosseo and the Roman Forum. Very close to a non-stop Carrefour shop, a bunch of restaurants and bars (the host offered us a voucher for 5%-10% discounts for some of them), bus and metro stations. Modern room with a private bathroom, available heater/cooler device, hairdryer, TV. Clean and well-equipped shared kitchen. Late check-in is available for a fee. Marcello was very friendly and helped us with the check-in the night we arrived, and Piercarlo was always in contact with us for any information we might have needed, be it related to the room or to sight-seeing, restaurants, etc. He even compiled a list with good places to eat, drink, have gelato, etc.! Please note that it is quite an "independent" stay; after check-in, you manage yourself (this means no cleaning service as well), but the host is there for any questions. The rooms are at street level, so be mindful of this aspect when keeping the windows open. Overall, I would definitely recommend this accommodation!
• Farida (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect—the room was clean, the location was ideal, and the staff were so polite and helpful
• Milen (10/5): Exceptional -
• Scott (10/5): Exceptional -
• Anay (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kim (9/5): Fabulous location near the Colisseum and all the facilities to make a great hotel/apartment stay. Thank you! - The host is very welcoming and helpful in relation to the stay. He was very accommodating and also provided lots of useful advice for the visit. A shelf in the shower for my own toiletries would make it perfect.
• Monique (10/5): The property was very neat and clean, centrally located. Everything was as stated. My phone died right before I arrived - It was 2 blocks from the colosseum, easy to find, great location, very clean, safe and easy to access the property It met all my needs, didn’t have anything I didn’t like
• Martha (10/5): The location and the hospitality at Domus-Iulia was great -
• Simon (10/5): Unbeatable location near the Colosseum - Unbeatable location near the Colosseum, with great restaurants nearby! The directions provided were excellent, and the room was clean and exactly as described. If we come back to Rome, we’d definitely stay here again.
• Lenka (10/5): Exceptional -
• Honor (9/5): Superb -
• Katarzyna (9/5): Enjoyable and stress-free stay inRome - Very good contact with the host, not only about the apartment but also about tips on getting around Rome. Apartment was clean and spacious, there is a lift in the building so no need to carry suitcase, shared kitchen was very helpful as well.
• Carla (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent location and friendly host. I will definitely return.
• Hameedat (10/5): Pure Perfection :) - I cannot fault the place. Everything was so white and bright. It was minutes away from the Colosseum so I have no complaints. It had a kitchen which meant i could have a cup of tea every morning and night. It was a very pleasurable stay and I would stay there again. The host was very lovely and helpful and gave me advice, I was provided with all the closes and best restaurants, supermarkets etc. It made my stay very easy and relacing. I needed not to worry about anything, Though the place was immaculate. When I dropped something and moved the bed to look for it, that was pretty dirty so that was the only downside but it did not dampen my stay at all. All in all, a wonderful stay.
• Margaret (8/5): Very good -
• Valentina (8/5): Excellent location and all the facilities needed - Excellent location, walking distance of Roma Termini (20min) and all points of interest within the city. Very well equiped kitchen with coffee, washing machine and soap, etc. Friendly and helpfull staff. Bathroom is private but outside the room. It could have been more clean.
• Sonny (10/5): Beautiful apartment, close to the Colosseum, helpful host. - The room is very nice! It's an B&B-style accommodation so basically a private bedroom with a shared kitchen area. We had a private bathroom adjacent to our bedroom, but looking at the cleanliness of the apartment, even the shared bathroom would have been ok. The walls are well-isolated so you can't hear the other guests in the 4 bedroom apartment unless you're together in the hallway by coincidence. The host was very friendly and helpful, he gave us some restaurant recommendations and general tips for the city. The apartment is a five to ten minute walk from the Colosseum and very close to a bus stop, but actually it's very doable to walk to the most important parts of the city. We would definitely stay here again for our next visit. It's a detail, but the lights in the room were painfully bright. A dimmer-switch would have been nice so we could make it more cosy in the room to unwind before going to bed. There are other lighting options in the room, luckily, but that makes the creative part with the light strips a waste because it's unbearable to keep it lit. We weren't able to turn on the heating on the drying rack in the bathroom, so our towels wouldn't dry. That's a pity, since we had some rainy days and drying them outside wasn't an option.
• Mollief1995 (10/5): Fab room and amenities in a great location - Beautifully decorated room and living area, amazing location and Piercarlo was so helpful and friendly - absolutely perfect for our 3 night getaway and also provided some amazing food and drink recommendations. Only disadvantage was the bathroom being external to the room but it was private and we could lock bits in there with no issues and we knew it was separate when booking so not a massive problem.
• James (10/5): Exceptional -
• Samira (10/5): It's an excellent place to stay! - The host was so kind and friendly. He helped us to find good places for food. My sister and I enjoyed our stay there. Everything was so new and clean. The kitchen was well equiped and we could drink tea and use washing machine for cleaning clothes. During our stay the weather was so warm and the airconditioner helped us so much! The place was close to coloseum and we could walk to other historical places too.
• Roei (10/5): Great location for the price - The price, the location and the really clean room we got when we checked in. The host is a really sweet guy that constantly offers help and even gave us a list of really nice restaurants in the area. The room comes with a giant Google TV perfect for a good little relaxation movie at the end of a long walking day in Rome. 10/10
• Yvonne (8/5): Great location - The location was great Room was a little bit dusty
• Lucy (10/5): Exceptional - Modern, good size room for a couple. The host was great to communicate with.
• Hannah (10/5): If you want a place near Colloseum, this is the best place. Owner is helpful and the place is good! - The room looks awesome and the size is the best for a single person. The owner is also very helpful in all aspects!
• Jesús (10/5): Wonderful apartment very close to the Colisseum in Rome - Almost all was absolutely perfect. First of all, the communication with the host was very fluid, before and during the stay. Piercarlo was always willing to help. The location was absolutely awesome, 5-10 minutes far from the Colisseum and from the San Giovanni in Laterano Archbasilica. It is possible to visit Rome on foot, but the metro station is next to the Colisseum, and the Termini Station is 2 km far from the apartment. Although the building is old, the apartment is totally refurbished. It has a common kitchen, with all the kitchen equipment needed: cutlery, glasses, microwave oven, a cook, washing machine, iron, fridge, and a table for having breakfast and dinner. The apartment has an elevator. Moreover, Piercarlo makes good coffee, sugar, tea and salt available for the hosts. The apartment had the appropriate size. Besides, a very good air conditioner is in the room, what is perfect for August in Rome. The room is very well lit. The apartment had WiFi, and I could use it perfectly. Finally, Piercarlo offers recommendations of restaurants near the place, with good discounts. If I go back to Rome, I will try to spend the night here as a first option. Very few to comment, and not relevant: maybe the bed was a bit short, and the feet towel was very small.
• Pauline (8/5): Central location but quiet. Clean and comfortable. - Love that there's a lift and the rooms are very clean. The powerful air conditioner is much appreciate on the hot summer days. Central location with attraction sites and supermarket within walking distance yet it is quiet. It was great that the host provided a list of places to eat and try too. Our private external bathroom lock was a little tricky to manage. Not too used to the big key but other than that, no major issues.
• Olha (10/5): The best thing you can do is book this place right now !!! - Great location 5 minutes from the Coliseum. The apartments are clean and have absolutely everything for a comfortable stay. The host is polite and gives the best recommendations for visiting. No other residents could be heard. We were delighted :) EVERYTHING IS PERFECT
• Illia (9/5): Superb -
• Timothy (9/5): Superb -
• Christiana (10/5): Exceptional - It was so close to everything and a really beautiful place. Everything was at a hands’ reach. Cafes, restaurants, supermarkets, and of course the Colosseum and train station. And the main bus station for bus 117 that takes you at all the main attractions
• Olivia (7/5): Good - Bathroom was clean, bed was very comfortable and tv worked perfectly very spacious.
• Ana (9/5): We had a nice time in Domus Iulia. Piercarlos is a great host. Very friendly, responsive and proactive. He gave us great - Yes, very well located, clean and comfortable Very well located, clean and comfortable
• Jeric (10/5): Exceptional -
• Rajkovic (10/5): Exceptional -
• Aukse (10/5): Exceptional -
• Roman (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment was very comfortable for one person. I think the price was a bit higher. 80€ per night,
• Eduan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jia (9/5): Superb -
• Deminica (7/5): With a deep clean and a curtain for the window I would happily stay again. - The room was spacious, the bed was comfortable and was in a good location. The washing machine was a great ammenity to have and the aiir conditioning worked well There is a window without any covering, or curtain so the room was very bright all the time. It made it very hard to sleep. The room was also in need of a deep clean, as there’s a built up of dust around the couch.
• Lynne (10/5): An excellent accommodation in a great location - Fantastic location near the Colosseum and yet not right in the crazy tourist areas Nothing
• Ewa (7/5): Good - The location is great! The place is nice and clean. We booked a room for 3, but the single bed was not very functional, it was hard to sleep comfortably even for a toddler. It's noisy outside, so having a window open at night may be a challenge.
• Louis (9/5): Superb -
• Malin (7/5): Good - Clean, good rooms. Friendly staff. Very noisy from the street and corridor
• Katie (10/5): Amazing! - The apartment was beautiful! Staff was friendly and helpful. Gave some great recommendations. Was above my expectation.
• Joseph (10/5): A beautiful accommodation - Enjoyed our first ever time in Roma at this very nicely situated and beautiful accommodation. Appreciated all the support from our host, Piercarlo, and his efforts to make sure we were comfortable and safe plus ensuring we had transportation to and from the building.
• Iulia (9/5): Superb -
• Grgeory (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tatjana (10/5): Exceptional - Appartment location is few minutes from Colosseum by walk.The room is big enough.
• Schubert (8/5): Very good - The host is very welcoming. Also he was very responsive to any issues we had with the room. The best part of the rental was the location it's only a 5 min walk from the Colosseum. The room was super clean which is also very important to me. The room comes with all the amenities you will need during your stay too such as the washing machine for laundry including the detergent for it as well. The room also comes with coffee, and the host was so nice to show me how to use the Italian coffee maker. We did have a few issues during our stay, the WiFi went out which made it difficult to communicate with loved ones overseas. The lack of WiFi also didn't allow for entertainment during our downtime and evenings in the room. The towel warmer also wasn't functioning properly which normally wouldn't be a big deal but we were trying to use it to dry our clothing after the wash. The room we were in didn't get much sunlight making it hard for our clothes to dry. We didn't feel comfortable leaving our clothes hanging in the common area either.
