Guest Reviews
- Danny (8/5): Was geen luxe hotel , doch heel practisch, goede prijs kwaliteit verhouding, hygiënisch, - De ligging, kort bij het station en een halte kortbij voor de hop on hop off bus. Niets.
- Fiona (10/5): Great - Fabulous place, just across the road from Santa Maria Maggiore basilica Some traffic noise
- Velizar (9/5): Koselig sted i nærheten av alt - Fantastisk beligenhet - alt er i nærheten Det var ganske mange aktiviteter rundt kirken i perioden. Fint å bli vekket hver morgen med synging av flere hundre mennesker :)
- Martin (9/5): -
- Sergio (9/5): - La ubicación El ruido del exterior
- Mariusz (9/5): Petarda , na pewno jeszcze kiedyś wrucimy 😁👍 - Pokój w samym centrum epicentrum , super lokalizacja . Bardzo fajny dom. Dla mnie wszystko grało . Chodziło mi dokładnie o lokalizację , nie szukałem luksusów . Tylko praktyczną miejscówkę .
- Dominika (10/5): - Amazing host, really friendly and helpful. The apartment is right in the city center, so you can walk everywhere. Overall , great experience and i would happy stay again.
- Liliia (10/5): -

- Sergii Khitun (10/5): - Nice location. Friendly owner.
- Александър (10/5): - Отлична локация . Много чисто и удобно. Глория е прекрасен домакин, а Софи ... бижу ! Всичко е окей
- Roberta (7/5): Roma stupenda 🥰🥰 - Posizione eccellente, la nostra stanza denominata Sole con vista su Basilica Santa Maria Maggiore , cucina in comune con microonde , frigorifero stoviglie varie ok Bagno da sistemare, letto con due materassi si separava nel mezzo, meglio mettere materasso matrimoniale
- Fievet (8/5): - L'emplacement ! Bruits des voitures.
Bruit des travaux
- Khatia (10/5): -
- Kazumi (4/5): - 場所がいい 暖房が夜切れて寒い、シャワーが簡易シャワーで狭い
- Niah (10/5): I would stay here again & again & again. - Location. Hospitality. Overall vibe of this room.
- PAntee (9/5): - Glorija kao domaćin je super. Lokacija je divna, sve je blizu. Buka. Izolacija nije dobra, posebno prozori sve s ceste s čuje.
- Nu (10/5): Maravilloso alojamiento. - Del alojamiento me gustó la ubicación, las vistas y las instalaciones. La comunicación perfecta con la dueña del alojamiento, todo nos lo puso fácil. Estuvimos 3 días maravillosos en Roma y estuvimos cómodos y en todo momento cuidados. La zona en la que está ubicado, tiene restaurantes buenísimos para comer, desayunar… tomarte una copa. Despertar y ver la Basílica no tiene precio, maravilloso. Tenemos parada de Bus y Taxi al lado del alojamiento. Totalmente recomendable, cuanfo volvamos a Roma, sin duda, repetiremos.
- NAZLI (3/5): - First of all, I realize it's a cheap hotel. However, I think you can find a more affordable hotel with air conditioning for this price. Rome is incredibly hot, and the ceiling fan isn't enough to cool the room. I woke up at least four times a night from the heat. While the hotel seems close to the city center, it's a significant 20-minute climb to get there. This is something you should consider. The bathroom water was incredibly slow. Showers that should have taken five minutes in this heat took 20 minutes. There are things that need to be improved at this hotel. My advice to anyone considering this hotel is to get a room with air conditioning.
- Rian (7/5): Excellent location with decent facilities - - Location and scenery is 10/10
- Most things in Rome are also at walking distance.
- The Termini station is only a 10min walk.
-They cleaned the guesthouse everyday.
- Instructions were very clear and we never had any issue with check in or check out
- Very affordabe - There is no airco in the room
- The windows are not good at blocking sound. I woke up often early in the morning to traffic sound. In the night I woke up to people drinking and speaking loud on the Terrace beneath us until 4am.
- You have to pay for
- Ashley (10/5): Great location and super host, 10/10! - The host was magnificent, helpful and so kind. The space was perfect and overlooked the beautiful piazza, it was just a magical stay.
- María del Valle (1/5): No hubo estancia, nunca me recibieron; pagué e inmediatamente estaba rechazada la reserva - La ubicación es muy buena, frente a Santa María Magiore, pero la forma de conexión con la gente es pésima, nunca aparecieron. Tengo 7 mails de conexión con Glam Sm Maggiore Guest House, hago la reserva y pago de inmediato me contestó RECHAZADA LA RESERVA. Hace un rato como están molestos por mi reclamo me volvieron a faltar el respeto por mensaje diciendo que estuvieron llamándome. Es mentira, porque sentada en las esclareas llorando de angustia esperé (pueden ver las llamadas en mi celular, ninguna de ellos). Por lo tanto me fui caminar Roma, con mi valija mi mascota y bolsos hasta que encontré un excelente hotel, luego de que varios que me rechazaron porque no había lugar. El hotel que encontré se llama California, pueden averiguar mi llegada allí fue a las 12:30hs.
Si yo hubiera suspendido, me atengo a las consecuencia, mi molestia es que me confirman, PAGO, para quedarme tranquila y me dicen PETICIÓN RECHAZADA. Pero si son rápidos para cobrar, y bastante caros, pues el hotel California fue más económico y con desayuno incluido, mas una atención excelente. Y si ustedes revisan mi registro de cada vez que he contratado, pago y solo me ocupo de que sea tal cual he reservado. Y no tengo ninguna deuda. por eso me gusta la honestidad. Gracias por este espacio.
- Maria (9/5): Super schöner Aufenthalt in top Lage! - Super freundliche Gastgeberin, unfassbar gute Lage, schöne Aussicht!
- Alvarez (1/5): -

- Salvador Josep (4/5): -
- Dea (10/5): Perfect - It was a typical roman building, that gave us roman vibes. The room was very clean with a great view from santa maria maggiore. The neighbourhood was safe. Walking distance from historic places in rome. Very easy to find and to enter with the instruction given by the owner. Nothing
- David (10/5): Great value for money, ideal for short stay, - Location location location near train station, restaurants, sites
- Metin (3/5): Tekrar tercih etmezdim. - Sadece konum iyi Yatak son derece rahatsız. Odada ısınmayla ilgili her hangi bir şey yok ve çok soğuktu. Camlar çok kötü dışarıdan çok ses alıyor ve uyumak çok zor.
- Josefina (9/5): -
- Mahmut (2/5): - Konumu çok iyi Tuvalet ve banyo odada değil. Koridorda başka bir yerde . Bu durumun önden belirtilmesi gerekirdi. Ayrıca banyo aşırı küçük
- Tiana (7/5): Lovely stay - Super cute, clean and great location. Bed was comfortable and the seats by the window made it very special The shower was comically small in our bathroom. if you are very overweight it might be an issue. Also the street below can be very loud, I recommend earplugs if you are a light sleeper.
- Iris (3/5): keine Erholung - MIT KARAOKE DURCH DIE NACHT: unter der Unterkunft befindet sich eine Karaoke-Bar, die bis morgens um 5 Uhr extrem lautes Geschreie und Gewummere aussendet. nach 5 Uhr schreien die Gäste auf der Strasse weiter.
Ohne Wachs- Ohrenstöpsel war hier an Schlaf nicht zu denken.
- Lena (10/5): -
- Dawid (4/5): Mamy mieszane uczucia co do pobytu. Lokalizacja oraz reaktywność właściciela zdecydowanie na plus! Minusem - pokój był n - Dobra lokalizacja, reaktywna i miła obsługa. Ogromny hałas w pokoju. Pod hotelem pub. Pokój znajduje się nad parterem, więc słychać wszystkie rozmowy, muzykę do bardzo późnych godzin. Pokój powinien być zdecydowanie lepiej przygotowany pod tym względem - instalacja akustyczna.
- Carlos Oswaldo (10/5): Hermoso lugar - Un alojamiento hermoso y acogedor, muy limpio y ordenado con una excelente ubicación.
- Myriam (7/5): -
- Olga (10/5): we were happy that we chose this place and will be looking it up in the event of us going to Rome ag -
- Marylou (10/5): Gentile, clean and kind company. In piazza Santa Maria de Maggiore! - Central location. Great area for train, restaurants and Ancient Rome as well as quick access to other parts of Rome . All good
- anna paola (7/5): - Host davvero gentile e disponibile, pulizia impeccabile, stanza essenziale, è presente una cucina con frigo attrezzato. la zona è centralissima, si arriva a piedi dalla stazione di termini ed è comoda per metro e bus. La stanza era situata sopra un pub. I vetri della finestra non sono isolanti, pertanto le notti erano davvero molto rumorose (musica e vociare delle persone). Con un picco il sabato sera... Impossibile dormire fino alle 4 del mattino. Avevo pensato di usare i tappi, ma il mio è stato un viaggio di lavoro e al mattino avevo la sveglia😅 spero che si riesca a risolvere questo inconveniente perché la struttura merita
- Jos (8/5): Amazing location - Perfect location.
Few on the bog church and square
Walking distance from all main attractions. No aircon, only a fan. Was hot inside
Noisy on Friday and Saturday as room was above a karaoke bar which stay open all night.
- Marcin MSTE (6/5): -
- Pierre (10/5): - Die Gastgeberin ist sehr freundlich und schnell zu erreichen. Das späte einchecken nach 20 Uhr war unkompliziert und mit der Gebühr von 20,-€ akzeptabel. Die Möglichkeit das Gepäck in der Gemeinschaftsküche unterzubringen bis Nachmittag ohne Aufpreis ist eine gute Alternative zu den Gepäckstationen am Bahnhof.
- Patrick (9/5): View, location - It’s an apartment in a building that’s a palace on the outside, more basic inside. It has 4 rooms for rent with a shared kitchen. The apartment is conservatively designed with some decorative touches.
It’s across the road from & has views of St Mary Major Basilica; a 1600 year old church which is very beautiful. It’s one of the four most important churches in Rome. The views are fantastic, whether during the day or floodlit at night. You can hear its bells, & people watch.
The area is vibrant, very central & has plentiful supermarkets, shops, cafes, restaurants, pubs… close to Termini & within walking distance of much of central Rome. Lots of transport links.
I didn’t meet the staff, but the owner texted me detailed information on how to find the building & get in, & was friendly & quick to respond.
I loved it.
- Jose Antonio (3/5): Es una pensión, no un hotel - La ubicación y la educación de la anfitriona Te cobran como un hotel de cinco estrellas pero en realidad es una pensión de tres estrellas o de cinco pero es una pensión hostal no cabía en la ducha es muy pequeña para mí y que conste que solo peso 90 kg y mido 1,50 el lavabo estaba fuera de la habitación es un hostal viejo pero limpio con instalaciones viejas pero limpias
- Mateusz (8/5): -
- Christina (7/5): Good -
- Aynura (8/5): Loc is perfect we are gonna stay in our next trip - Everything was good.Location is perfect. None I think
- Jhonatan (9/5): Superb - The staff was very kind and always open to give some tips and information about the city.
- Suzi (9/5): I had a very comfortable and enjoyable stay. - Location was central and handy for visiting sites. However, evenings were a little noisy due to the bar/restaurant next door. There was no kettle .
- Norman (2/5): A very cheap hostel - The mattress was good, also is a good view from the window. Cheap hostel, bathroom is across the hallway, while over rooms are occupied by strangers. Limited room in a fridge, but most unpleasant that the hostel is not air-conditioned. It is extremely hot, but outside is very noisy, so you can not open the window. There are some plumbing issues in a bathroom. Couldn't use the shower because of the tiny size. Tried to spend as little time inside as it was possible.
- Francis (10/5): Fabulous - The location opposite the Basilica was so beautiful. Gloria was extremely helpful!
- Alex (10/5): Exceptional - Everything, good place and clean and good location
- Kristin (8/5): Very good - Perfect Location for a City Trip. Super close to the Main Station, with Forum and Colosseum in walking Distant, in Beautiful Monti where you can do Great Shopping.
Also right next to Santa Maria di Maggiore- which you definitely should not miss!
- Nicola (7/5): Good -
- Demirelli (7/5): It's a nice location, I recommend it if you want to eat out, it's a price performance place. - The location is safe and close to the center. I didn't have any problems with cleaning either. Maybe you can get a cabinet lock before you go. There is a common area for breakfast and the ingredients are put in the common refrigerator. Our ingredients were not there after a few days, which was a big problem for us. Also, on the last day, a dog stayed in the room next to us and we went to bed with the sound of barking at night.
- Patrick (7/5): Good - Location, Staff Very noisy as both nights I could hear the party on the road outside the window It was very hard to sleep. Not the BnB fault but just something to be aware of
- Albina (2/5): Very poor -
- Zuhal (8/5): Very good - Location was great and property was very good I stayed with my friend for few days. Just one thing I didnt like, after leaving country I texted the person who I contacted for property about I left early and is it possible to getting back city tax etc. And she suddenly started texting Italian and blamed me and my friend about breaking shower head even tough we didnt break. It was very interesting moments we were shocked. We dont know how it happened but we felt upset. And before staying there we were communicating in English. I’m texting English she was replying Italian. Very interesting experience was it. For me this was rude.
- Veronica (10/5): Nice stay in Rome - The location is great! It it in front of Santa Maria maggiore Church and it is very close to other attractions (19mins walking to the colosseum). It is also very close to Termini train station (like 10 mins walking). The staff were extremely nice and accommodating. N/A
- Simona (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ava (8/5): Lovely place, good location,helpful and responsive host just bring earplugs for overnight comfort ;) - Very good location and nice traditional house/building. Lovelu and responsive host - helpful and thoughtful. A short walk to main attractions, nice coffee / drink . breakfast / diner downstair. old fashioned cute lift, traditional "piazza" just outside the window. Bus stop nearby. Noisy doors/locks. It's an old building. Traditional Italian - with it's best and bad sides. You can hear people coming back to the guest house or leaving - especially in the evening, at night and very early morning.
- Marko (10/5): Exceptional -
- Andrei (10/5): Exceptional - Very good location in the center, clean and nice for solo travel or couple
- Vera (8/5): Very good -
- Oniani (3/5): Poor -
- Littlewood (10/5): Exceptional -
- Amanda (8/5): Great location to explore Rome in the cooler months. - Great location with a wonderful view. Noise from the club below the apartment. Fan in the room too noisy and too much noise from the outside so you have to shut the windows. We managed because it was cool but in summer it would be very difficult.
- Constanza (5/5): Regular - Location, clean and nice staff There was slamming of doors every night that woke us up several times.
The place has a kitchen, but there is no place to eat, and you cannot occupy the kitchen table since it is the "reception".
They could be more flexible with check in, because 20:00 is the check in limit. We had to change our itinerary to accommodate and the person in charge is not flexible.
- Samuel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rita (7/5): Quality - Price is alright! - Location and the staff was super helpful! With the heat in august 🥵, we did sleep with the window open, but there was a lot of noise coming from outside (cars, people chatting, ambulances…)
The bathroom is not the best thing ever…
The bed makes noise every move you make
- Murillo (10/5): Exceptional -
- Medic (10/5): Exceptional -
- Candida (8/5): Very good - I've stayed there before and really like the location in Rome. I'd definitely stay there again. Bathroom for my room across the wall, but not the end of the world. NO shared bathrooms
- Mariño (9/5): Excellent host and great location! - Great location and great bedroom. Cozy, clean and comfortable. Excellent host, very friendly and responsive. No air conditioning and fan too high to feel the cool down. It gets noisy sometimes and windows are not soundproof.
- Marija (8/5): Very good - future passengers, please pay attention. Check-in to this apartment is until 8 p.m.
Our flight was delayed and when we asked them to wait for us an hour later, the host did not want to accept it... We were very disappointed. Everything else is good, the location is ideal.
- Denise (8/5): Very good -
- Molly (9/5): Amazing experience overall! - Had another booking cancel on me last minute and desperately needed immediate accommodation. The host for Glam, reached out to me immediately after I booked this property and was at the property to help me check in barely an hour after I had made the booking. She was incredibly friendly and responded very quickly too. The cleaner that comes daily is a really nice touch. The lobby itself was extremely lovely too, and there is a nice lift that works quite well.
The basilica outside the hotel, which can be fully viewed from the window in the bedroom, coincidentally, happened to host a procession through the city with the Pope and high-ranking members of the church in attendance for a holy day. A truly surreal experience, and all this could be viewed from the window in the bedroom! The location is very central and close to many main tourist sites. The room is atop a bar which gets very loud at night. The television was hard to figure out, and the shower as well leaked through the folding panels very easily.
- Miran (9/5): Superb - Great location, everything was as expected. The host was super helpful and friendly. The bed could be a bit better as it’s too soft and squeaks on every movement.
- Luciana (8/5): Very good -
- Linares (9/5): Superb - Everything was super clean and the location superb
- خالد (9/5): Superb - All is amazing , just at beginning they didn’t give us enough help to change the dates of booking
- Matthew (6/5): Pleasant -
- Elina (9/5): Superb - We liked the location and overall the host was very helpful and friendly. In terms of service it was ok, though they could renovate the bathroom.
- Klevi (7/5): Good -
- Willem (7/5): Good -
- Maria (9/5): Superb -
- Razi (2/5): Very poor -
- Mohammad (1/5): Bad -
- Emma (6/5): Great for view and location - The location is very good, you can walk anywhere in Rome. The bed we had was soft and the pillows were nice. The view is amazing to sleep with. The lady was nice. The bathroom and bedroom are of a very good size for a couple. It is decorated nicely with fake ivy and flowers, she's done a good job. We came 20 minutes before our appointment check in but were still able to check in at 3:10pm. There were sensor cameras pointing to our door so whenever we needed to use the external bathroom or leave, we felt it was recorded. The glass on the windows really needs updating as you can hear everything on the street, I think if this was updated then it would sort the biggest issue- it is the reason for my score. There is a bar below that plays loud music as well, one night we slept only three hours due to noise. The bed is very loud too, it creaks at the slightest movement. We stayed for three nights but did not get any new towels or toilet paper. There was no lounge, only an external kitchen with a dining table.
- Brankica (10/5): We would highly recomend this place for everyone wanting to feel the Rome - Location was great! The host is so pretty and kind. We loved the building, the view through the window! We loved it!
- Fantastico (5/5): okay. - I liked how clean was the room. I did not like how small was the bath.
- Jorge (10/5): Very comfortable room with amazing location - Amazing location and comfort
The hosts were very helpful answering all my questions and helping when asked Too narrow shower
- Bianca (9/5): Superb - The room was very very clean and nice organised. The guest house was relatively close to most destinations. you could walk to the trevi fountain, pantheon, colloseum.
in the premises there was also a mini kitchen where you could prepare a coffee or tea or something light for breakfast. Across the street is the church of Santa Maria Maggiore, an important tourist point in Rome, of particular beauty. The room was a bit noisy due to the traffic outside. The guest house was located in the building directly at the intersection, but the problem was solved with some good ear plugs from the pharmacy across the street
- Enea (10/5): Evrithing good. The owner was very kind. - The location and the kidnes of the owner The bed could be beter
- Kevin (10/5): Great Value - Excellent location. The Hop On/Hop Off picked up across the street. The gelato downstairs is good! There are many nearby restaurants ( 5 min walk max).
- Susan (10/5): Terrific place to stay at - Central to main train line easy to find and walk to. Buses across the road for sightseeing. Room was clean and tidy. Bed comfortable and we also had our own enquire. Shared kitchen was good to use too. We had no problems at all staying here and recommend it to travellers.
I have read previous reviews regarding this place, and as far as I'm concerned, they had a problem as it was a lovely guest house. Though I didn't get to meet Gloria, we did converse through text and she was very helpful. Thank you, Gloria, we enjoyed our stay. No complaints at all.
- Jessyca (8/5): Very good -
