Guest Reviews
- Lilla (4/5): - Tylko to, że było blisko Watykanu. Czwarte piętro bez windy, wspólna łazienka na korytarzu. Szczytem był pokój otwarty na całą szerokość po naszym powrocie z miasta. Praktycznie żadnej komunikacji z właścicielem. Nie odbierał telefonów po naszym przyjeździe, przysłał tylko wiadomość z kodem do domofonu, dla mnie to był jakiś kiepski żart.Drugi raz nie skorzystałabym z tego hoteliku.
- Peter (10/5): -
- Nikolett (5/5): - Közel volt a Vatikán. A reggeli elöző nap bekészített kekszekből állt.
- DEBORAH (7/5): - La posizione è strategica. Il prezzo è sicuramente conveniente, ma non si può vendere una quadrupla in cui uno dei due letti matrimoniali e piccolo, basso e un po' scassato. Il letto deve essere comodo!
- Francesca (8/5): Posizione strategica - Posizione strategica per visitare Piazza San Pietro e ben collegata al resto delle attrazioni di romane.
- Isabelle (7/5): Beauté de Rome - L emplacement L accès à La salle d eau et wc a l extérieur de la chambre
- Judith (6/5): - We told ourselves it was an experience but I wouldn’t do it again. It was very hard to find, only a brown door. No lift. 99 steps with luggage is a bit much. Only got towels the first day.
- Prado Agee (10/5): -
- Prado Agee (10/5): - Desayuno algo básico.
Pan, leche, jugo y galletas.
Buena relacion calidad y precio.
- Marilyn (5/5): We were too old to stay there - The stairs were a killer. 4 flights. No one to help you with your luggage. No service.
- Annika (9/5): -
- Rohan (9/5): -
- Anick Marcelle (9/5): Dans l’ensemble, je me suis plus dans cet appartement, même si je suis arrivé hyper tard et que j’ai pas pu bien en prof - Le lit
Le petit déjeuner
La quiétude
La proximité des transports
Et du Vatican La douche extérieure
- Jochen (8/5): Fas B&B war ein idealer Ausgangspunkt für Unternehmungen rund um den Vatikan. - Die Lage der Unterkunft war hervorragend: 2 Minuten zu Fuß zum Petersplatz.
Ein- und Auschecken war unkompliziert und das Personal immer schnell und freundlich beim Antworten via Whatsapp.
Das Restaurant direkt im Gebäude war MEGA: Nettes Personal, gutes Essen, faire Preise. Die Frühstücksterrasse auf dem Hauptfoto haben wir nirgends gefunden. Außerhalb des Zimmers gab es keine Möglichkeit, sich aufzuhalten.
Es hat eine Nacht gedauert, bis wir den nächtlichen Geräuschpegel der Straße vorm B&B gewohnt waren.
- girl (8/5): -
- John (8/5): -
- Akiyoshi (10/5): There is a microwave oven - There was microwave oven and small refrigerator and drinks were provided.
There was also air conditioning installed, so we were able to stay comfortable. No major issues, just an elevator would be great.
- Tomas (10/5): -
- Ainhoa (8/5): - Limpio céntrico buena comunicación con anfitrión pudimos entrar antes y dejar maletas después todo muy muy bien El baño es privado pero está fuera de la habitación no pasa nada pero está bien saberlo ya que hay más gente en las habitaciones de al lado y tb baño esta fuera
- Flora May (8/5): B&B stories review - I like that the management is very approachable and was able to give some clear instructions about the process of check in and check out. The room and toilet are clean. I like also the Breakfast or snacks, they were good. I didn't like that there was not enough space where we can temporarily hang up our clothes. The cabinet was quite small. It would be better if there is metal bar with hanger inside the room.
- Sarah (9/5): Superb -
- Lakmi (8/5): Very good -
- Glenn (8/5): Overall very good stay. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. - Accessibility to the Vatican and nearby tourist destinations. The Toilet outside the room.
- Diana-andra (10/5): Exceptional - Convenient location, very clean, well supplied. Street noise (used earplugs); getting up four floors was difficult for my senior mother.
- Janette (8/5): Wonderful & comfortable stay - Location is perfect if visiting the St Peter’s Basilica. Lots of restaurants nearby The stairs it’s on the 4th floor , no lift 😒
- Mohammed (7/5): Good -
- Mario (8/5): Very good - The property was very clean, everything in place. It has no lift and that is a drawback since the property is at the 4th floor. The only thing to criticize was the behavior of others staying at the property. They were very noisy late at night and early morning. It is very central, clean.
- Viola (9/5): Superb - Riccardo & Carmen, thank you for your warm welcome and your host! The location is perfect. 2 mins walk from the Vatican, 15 mins walk from the metro station (A line). There is no included bathroom for the room.
Just 2 steps from your door on a corridor, so it's not terrifying, but if it's important you have to check it before your booking.
No elevator. The room is on the 4th floor. You have to climb it after a big walk around Rome.
- Shannon (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent location with a lovely spacious room. The hosts were kind and helpful :)
- Nagy (10/5): Everything was smooth and fun - It is super close to the “old town” The batroom lock mechanism difficult on the dark corridor
- Minoli (9/5): Gem of a place to visit the Vatican - The location and the helpful nature of the host Ricardo was exceptional. Ricardo goes out of his way to help the guests. Breakfast was a sweet Italian breakfast which was very sufficient. Location is a gem if you are to visit the Vatican. In 2 minutes you are in Vatican. Plenty of restaurants in the vicinity. Entrance to the main building is through a code system which needs to be obtained from the owner. Place is reachable by foot within 10 to 15 minutes from St Pedro station. Cleanliness is maintained at the highest. Tap water in to room is suitable for drinking. Having to climb 102 steps daily due lack of an elevator. It was a daunting task for my elderly mother. However the host Ricardo helped us with the baggage upon checking out which was a huge relief. Also he opted to offer us another apartment on a ground floor in another location. But considering how easy this place to the Vatican we decided to stay. Ricardo went out of his way to make our stay comfortable. God bless him

- Besmir (10/5): Exceptional -
- Yuliia (7/5): Good -
- Maylyn (8/5): Despite the fact that there was no elevator, the view, location, host, and room was perfect and okay. Overall, we enjoye - Location is perfect if you are aiming to go to St Peter’s Basilica early to avoid the long line. No elevator. Need to climb the stairs all the way to 4th floor.
- Klara (10/5): Exceptional - The host was very helpful.
Location is excellent, just 3 minutes walk to Vatican and 20-40 min to other main tourist attractions.
There is sweet breakfast every day which was delicious. The room is on 4th floor and the building doesn't have an elevator which can be tricky after 25+ k of steps you make while walking around Rome.
- Marina (1/5): Bad - NOTHING TERRIBLE PEOPLE ATTENDING VERY FRIGHTENING TO TAKE KIDS WITH PEOPLE THAT WERE THERE THE ROOM NOTHING LIKE IN THE PICTURES THE WORST EXPERIENCE ON TRAVELLING I HAVE HAD
DO NOT RECOMMEND FOR NOBODY SPECIALLY WITH CHILDREN IT IS TERRIBLE AND PREFER NO TO GIVE MORE DETAILS
- Teuta (10/5): Exceptional -
- Susan (7/5): Good -
- Leopoldo (8/5): Very good - There is no elevator going to 4th floor. The toilet is separate from the room.
- Kathy (8/5): Very good -
- Ellen (7/5): Good -
- Agnieszka (8/5): Nice location, friendly staff - Good and quick response from the owners regarding maintenance issues No kettle for hot water. Owner suggested boiling water in microwave. Breakfast is all packed and ready in your room. Also small portion
- Jasmina (8/5): Very good - Location is very good, the host (Riccardo) was very friendly, everything was clean and setup. The location is by the road which is busy during the daytime and nighttime and the noise quite penetrates into the room. So consider having some earplugs if you are sensitive to it.
As the breakfast is served in the room, the selection is modest or what Italians typically have for breakfast (some toast, crackers, milk, cornflakes). There were some fresh apples, but no cheese, ham or other dishes that need to be cooked/baked.
