Guest Reviews
- Fernando Jorge (3/5): - La ubicación, cocina con nevera y máquina de café y utensilios. Limpieza nada de nada, colchón para tirar a la basura, hundido completamente nin me podria llegar cerca de la pareja, la ducha sin soporte de jabon o nin siquiera dá para sacar, es fija, o te lavas el pelo o te lavas igualmente, los metales llenos de óxido, menos mal que estoy vacunado si no me contraia el tétanos hasta del aire, el mando de la TV no existe, se esquchas el minimo ruído de la calle o de dentro del edificio, no es para descansar, la cama y cabezal metia hasco de tanto deterioro, paredes descascadas, mal olor, etc... todo necesitando de una reforma pero a lo bestia, aún que comenté que era alérgico a los ácaros y hunidades, pedido que no hubiera en la habitación estos problemas y nin caso, o realmente todas las habitaciones estan asi, mismo tomando la mediación me senti picor en todas las noches y para desgracia fueran 3. Enfin, una experiencia para olvidar, sin mentir de lo peor que me encontrado.

- Pasquale (1/5): PESSIMA AVVENTURA IN UNA STANZA DA INCUBO - Solo la posizione Condizioni igieniche della camera veramente penosa, il letto in pelle completamente scorticato e sporco con i pezzetti di pelle che cadevano da tutte le parti. Gli asciugamani non sono stati sostituiti e siamo stati costretti a comprarci asciugamani di carta. La doccia veramente penosa piena di calcare, i rubinetti imbottiti di calcare acqua calda che si interrompeva durante il flusso, passando a quella fredda. SCortesia assoluta per 10 minuti di ritardo nel check out. Da sconsigliare sotto tutti i punti di vista.
- Mónika (7/5): Kis ráfordítással, sokkal jobb lenne! - A szállás nagyon jó helyen van, könnyen megközelíthető. A szoba tiszta, 2 személynek tökéletes. A tulajdonos rugalmas és kedves. Róma látnivalóit is könnyen megközelítheted tömegközlekedéssel. Éttermek, és bevásárló utca a közelben. Az ágy nagy csak a matracot kéne már cserélni :( ! Amit hiányoltunk: az a pohár, valamint ebbe az árba legalább egy kapszulás kávéfőző 2 csészével, na meg egy pár kapszulával igazán filléres tétel lenne, és nagyot dobna a szoba megítélésén.
- Peña Collantes (3/5): Pésimo. No se queden a dormir allí. No es lo que aparece en fotos. - La ubicación El lugar no estaba limpio. El baño no tenía agua caliente y la ducha es tan pequeña que es tarea imposible agacharse para lavarse las piernas y los pies. La puerta de la ducha es pequeña también. La cama está a mitad de la habitación y es muy difícil pasar de un extremo a otro de la habitación, sobre todo por la noche (el hueco para pasar es estrecho como un pie). Las paredes estaban sucias, había agujeros y mucho polvo. La cama y la almohada eran incomodísimas
- Alessio (7/5): Nel complesso mi ritengo soddisfatto - Posizione ottima per visitare la città del Vaticano e per la comodità di spostamenti (vicinanza metro linea A), letto comodo e spazioso. Personale dell'host disponibile nel risolvere le possibili ed insorgenti problematiche. Qualche problema nella gestione dell'acqua dei rubinetti sanitari, anche se sicuramente non è colpa dell'Host ma dell'acquedotto.
- Arnau (6/5): - Buena ubicación y habitación cómoda. La ducha es muy pequeña y no hay agua caliente.
- De Monte (1/5): non vale i soldi che ho pagato - nulla tutto
- Kemz (9/5): A
Great Roman Experience - The location was excellent! We could easily walk to St. Peter's and to the metro. There were also bus stops close by. The bed was very comfortable. The fridge and the microwave were very useful. Check in was easy - it was great that they already sent the WiFi log in details so that we could use it to go online to complete a part of the check-in process. Otherwise, we would have been stranded since we don't have Italian SIM cards. The cleaning was also very professionally done. The hot water didn't flow on day 1. The host fixed it quickly enough. We stayed 5 days. The Internet became flaky in the second half.

- heloise (5/5): - L’emplacement est vraiment idéal (très près du Vatican et des restaurants, bar) mais aussi à quelques pas du métro. Le lit était très vétuste avec des draps pas super propres..
Peu d’isolation, et une douche qui fonctionne une fois sur deux

- Marius (10/5): - Perfect location , close to every transportation
- Le Rose (7/5): -
- SAHABZADA MUHAMMAD ZAIN UL (1/5): Very bad decision to take this worst stay ever in my travel history - Nothing All
- Angelica Gabriella (7/5): Good value for money - It was only few steps away from Vatican City, we were able to see pope Sunday blessing. St Peter’s basilica only 10 mins away.
Very comfortable bed The bedroom was very small, bathroom too tiny.
- Ari (10/5): -
- ANNAMARIA (5/5): - Posizione ottima La struttura del letto, il bagno e la cucina avrebbero bisogno di una sistemata

- Andrea (7/5): -
- Lemić (9/5): Really nice stay - Amazing location, the room is cleaned every two days (we didnt know that), the owner let us check in earlier so that was amazing, it is a very spacious place The bed needs to be changed asap and the shower is not made for women (it has only an overhead shower and I dont want to wash my hair every day)
- Philippine (6/5): - L'emplacement, et le lit qui était confortable. L'état général de l'appartement un peu vétuste + pas de housse de protection sur le lit + pas de douchette dans la salle de bain + plomberie médiocre + chasse d'eau un peu cassée + poussière et rouille dans la chambre et salle de bain + évier bouché dans la cuisine + un vrai courant d'air dans la chambre, venant de la fenêtre + pas assez d'équipements dans la cuisine: une fourchette pour cinq chambres !

- maarindianaa (7/5): Placut - Multă galagie
- Miguel (6/5): - La ubicación y el precio 10/10. Era grande de sobra para 2 personas. La habitación era bonita y cómoda. Estaba limpia, la cama era cómoda y grande. La entrada a la casa fué rápida y sencilla. Esperamos que arreglen los pequeños fallos que tuvimos ya que tiene mucho potencial como bnb! La calefacción no funcionaba como debería, de hecho, un día de los 3 que nos hospedamos no funcionó la calefacción... En una situación normal tampoco me molestaría tanto, pero en la calle justo esa noche hacían 2 grados, la habitación tenía alguna manta pero algo muy pobre... Si tuviera algún edredón o algo así no habría sido tan incómodo. Por otra parte, el agua de la ducha de repente se ponía fría. Había agua caliente como tal pero a tramos se enfríaba, al tener el grifo de la ducha colgado y no ser de mano, había que salirse de la ducha para esperar que se calentara. Si no llega a ser por esos dos fallos, la valoraría mucho más alta
- Costas (9/5): -
- Maximilienne Ascension (9/5): - La proximité avec le musée du vatican, le metro, le bus, les restaurants, les boutiques, une eglise où j'allais prier quand j'en avais besoin... et aussi avec San Pietro. Emplacement ideal. Je dormais très bien.
Calme, une cuisine avec le nécessaire disponible.
Bref, pour... magnifique. La cerise sur le gâteau... la sympathie et la bienveillance du logeur qui a même changé ma television. Toujours à l'ecoute et disponible.
J'ai adoré La salle de bain... trop petite.
- Melone (7/5): -
- elisa (10/5): -
- Isabella (5/5): - la posizione letto scomodo, stanza non pulitissima e confusione eccessiva perchè la mia stanza n. 3 era sulla strada e la finestra non si chiudeva bene
- Reyes García (10/5): -
- Dorj (1/5): -
- Maša (9/5): -
- carolla (5/5): Desagrado! - La ubicación El dormitorio muy pequeño, sucio, la atención del anfitrión es HORRIBLE!!
- Vincenzo (2/5): - Posizione Arredi vecchi e malridotti pulizia inesistente
- Mascia (7/5): Sopra la media di quello che si trova in giro per Roma - Ampiezza della stanza Poche stoviglie nella cucina, spazi comuni Coop curati, molto rumorosa
- Dmytro (3/5): Не рекомендую
Грязно ужасный душ не удобный - Чистая постель это плюс и место расположения Не понравилось что кровати были плохие матрасы проваливались, грязная ванная комната, не закрывается дверь в душе, не куда вешать полотенца . Нет ни каких указателей где отель находится , я имею ввиду что у самого входа мы сомневались куда нам идти , была три входа и не какой вывески где вход. Фото красивые а в реальности все старое и не придатно к проживанию даже на пару дней.

- Angel (8/5): Aside from the bed issue, I really enjoyed my time. - Literally few steps to Vatican Museum and St. Peter's Basilica. I just wish it was a bit more updated. The headboard was pilling, and there were a few stains on the sheets and the bed itself. Other than that, I really enjoyed my stay, great location and very convenient!
- Tomik23 (6/5): - Świetna lokalizacja przy samym Watykanie. Blisko sklepy spożywcze i restauracje. Właściciel bardzo pomocny, wyrozumiały i przystąpił na prośbę o przedłużenie doby ze względu na nocny incydent. Bardzo miękki materac, poplamiony,
dla mojego kręgosłupa zabójstwo. Pod łóżkiem kurz.
- Philippe (5/5): Bien placé mais mal entretenu - L’emplacement en centre-ville Le matelas est pourri
Bruit des voitures, bruit des voisins car la chambre est mal isolée
Pas de pommeau de douche
Pas de porte serviettes ni tapis de douche.
Tout est rouillé dans la salle de bain
Quelqu’un à vomi sur l’escalier, pendant deux jours ce n’était pas nettoyé , c’était deguelasse
- Andrew (3/5): Unforgettable first trip to Rome with family with the only negative point being the booking - not recommended - The only good thing about the property was the location which was great and close to the Vatican. The host was rude and not welcoming at all. He made it complicated to check in despite my late arrival so my mum went to check in by herself because I was coming in later than check in times.
Firstly, it was very difficult to find the room within the residence, nothing much was provided, my mum then got some help from some other tourists in the residence and they nearly fought because the host was very hot heated asking them why were they helping my mum…
The room was smaller than what the pictures made it look like. The cleanliness was very poor, some dust were in the corners.
The shower was very small and leaking as well.
To finish, someone within the building dropped for in the stairs and this was left for 48hours and only cleaned on the Monday morning when I’m guessing the building’s concierge came in.
I would strongly not recommend this place despite the great location.
- Gawron (6/5): -
- Marcio (8/5): -
- Georgina (8/5): Brilliant stay in a great location - Great facilities with a fridge and microwave in a communal kitchen, shower and bathroom
Were great and a comfy bed Headboard needs replacing, it’s is peeling and left pieces either attached to us or in the bed
- Thomas (4/5): - Property was close to Vatican and very convenient. Owner Max should not be in the hospitality business. A bully who was very uncooperative. Room was dirty, dark with burned out lights and rusty pipes.
- Angelo (7/5): Soggiorno discreto - La posizione comoda per gli spostamenti L'accoglienza poco cordiale, la mancanza di sedie in camera
- Francesca (10/5): -
- Andrews (8/5): Perfect last-minute booking - Ideal location, room was spacious, had a nice view, and pretty clean. Comfortable bed and sofa, working TV and AC, good Wi-Fi and plenty of plug sockets. Shared kitchen with cold water and fridge, and the private en-suite had a great shower and bidet. Got a good last minute deal and saved a bit of cash on the stay. Backboard of bed was made of some faux leather that would shed everywhere if you touched it at all. Slightly difficult to find even with specific instructions, but staff were responsive when texted for assistance getting into the apartment for the check-in (despite not seeing anyone the entire time). Try to be cautious/informed when walking around outside, as there were many tourist trap restaurants, cafes, and tour guides, but also many hidden gems.
- Adriana Cecilia (10/5): - Central y buena conexión de transporte publico. La cama es muy cómoda y la habitación es bastante amplia. La limpieza y que haya cocina.
- Alessandro9714 (10/5): -
- Alice (6/5): Ok if you're not fussy about a top clean environment & having a good shower - Location is amazing, 2 min away from the entrance of the Vatican. Check-in was super smooth and the room would be cleaned every 2 days with fresh towels. We enjoyed the AC being away from the bed so we could leave it on during the night. We loved the neighborhood. Access to a kitchen was nice. One of the less expensive options for a long stay in Rome with the best location. The shower is horrible, don't count on having a nice relaxing time in the bathroom, pressure is nothing, temperature keeps changing.
I found lots of dust in the room, I'm usually not fussy about it but when you put your headphones on the bedside table and have to blow on it because of so much dust it's not a good sign. After telling the staff, it was still dusty.
The head of the bed is falling apart and we would find little piece of the fake leather everywhere on the bed or us - a bit annoying.
- Simona (8/5): Great location, not the best facilities and cleaningness - It's location. The AC was not working properly it was hot as hell staying here in mid June. It could be cleaned better.
- Михайлова (6/5): Pleasant - Location Hot water wasn’t always available; it was cold in the room at night; staff weren’t very friendly
- Xavi (10/5): Loved it!!! - The location
- Jose (8/5): Very good -
- Giulia (7/5): Good -
- Serkan (1/5): Drainage exploded and the host wasnt really helpful lol - They should have checked the condition of their drainage systems because it exploded during our stay lol
- Marilena (6/5): Pleasant -
- Augusto (9/5): We enjoyed our stay in residenza sistina.. it was a great experience and the place was very near to all..we never see th - The room and very convenient for everything. None
- Sam (8/5): 7 Day stay great value - Before booking I extensively read the reviews for Residenza Sistina and I was a little worried but it seemed ok and acceptable, I have completed a 7 day stay and its more than adequate
Phenomenal location for me as the vatican was where I spent the bulk of my trip + many good restaurants right on your doorstep and the price was unbeatable 450 Euros for the week, staff replaced my sheets, towels + emptied the bins 5 times out of the 7 days which is great
Wifi was good I never had any trouble with the connection and the noise was mitigated playing a 10 hour sounds of the rain from my phone in the corner of the room
People really stress minor details stains and marks within their photos, even an old bedhead but it's really not a problem and the bed was absolutely not itchy or crawling with bugs as some others claimed, for the location and what I paid for it Ill happily do it again. Not the hotels fault just a warning for others who like me don't have any phone data or wifi planned in advance coming into Italy be sure to organise check in details and read the owners instructions before you leave your last wifi zone, I did not so checking in wasn't as streamlined ( my fault )
- Camelia (8/5): Very good -
- Georgi (7/5): Good -
- Jim (8/5): Very good -
- Suwareh (5/5): Regarding to the price it’s alright. - It’s close to the Vatican and there are Kontor restaurant and shops nearby The bathroom was dirty, things were rusty and dirty. The drainage in the shower didn’t work properly. The fridge in the room wasn’t working. It’s really loud.
- Eiad (6/5): Pleasant -
- Andrea (6/5): Pleasant -
- Alex (4/5): Reasonable if you only need a placr to sleep. - Good location! Not so clean, the fridge did not work the room had a weird odor, pretty loud aswell.
- Hoxha (8/5): Very good - Everything was great, we stayed 4 days but the room was cleaned only one time (the second day).
The pressure of the water at the shower was so low and it changed temperatures every 2 minutes.
The small toilet seat was clogged.
- Raluca (7/5): Good - Location Communication, noise, dirty sofa
- Evita (8/5): Perfect location - The location was perfect! Room was a very good size and had everything we needed. The street is very noisy at night but we solved that with a couple of earplugs.
- Andrey_kuznetsov (7/5): Good -
- Fiona (10/5): Excellent location, fantastic value for money - Excellent location, lovely room with accommodating staff Absolutely nothing
- Radoslav (9/5): Good value for the money overall - Perfect location That they didn’t spend the required amount of money to maintain the essentials, such as bed frame and mattress
- Aljaz (5/5): Passable -
- Mike (7/5): Good - Location was great. Facilities good. Comfortable room. Good value. Rome like many major cities is noisy. Our room had 2 windows which meant it was very noisy. Better with a courtyard room, or room with one window. Shower wasn't Fantastic, maybe better in other rooms.
- Rasa (10/5): It was a litlle hard to find but overall very good -
- Arianna (10/5): Would definitely come back! - Exceptional value for money! 5 min walk from the Vatican, 5 minutes from the Metro (Line A).
Really helpful staff; room was very spacious and clean. Very tiny shower
- Boyan (6/5): Average experience - The room is ok.
Comfortable bed.
Relatively good location to Vatican museums. Not comfortable bathroom. Small cabin. Uncomfortable shower.
The water in the bathroom sink was barely running.
- Bozhidara (6/5): Pleasant -
- Stefan (1/5): Bad apartment, worse host. - The man who was ,,cleaning'' the whole place. He was very polite. Except that - NOTHING. We didn't like anything!! Everything was as we haven't excpected. The host was very rude, check in was not at 2PM as written. Apartment was not ready for check in. Apartment was dirty. Bed is very old. There were bunch of hair in the shower and shower is leaking. It is not as in the pictures at all! Very bad apartment for that price. Although it is good location, the street is very noisy.
- Ritesh (1/5): Bad - Nothing. It was not value for money. In photos it’s different. In real it’s different. Waste of money.
