Guest Reviews
- Warren (7/5): A comfortable room for three people near the centre of Rome with air conditioning. - This is an affitta camere, by law they're not allowed to give breakfast in the room. There is however a kettle and a selection of teas and you can obviously bring your own materials. They also give you a ticket for breakfast at a bar/bakery nearby that was great. The location is excellent, near the metro and buses to the centre or Rome Termini. The air conditioning in the room we were in was more than adequate for the high temperatures outside while we were there. We had a couple of small problems that the owner did his best to rectify, which he did to our satisfaction. Due to people complaining about cleanliness they are maybe over compensating now. When we arrived in the evening the room smelled strongly of cleaning products. Opening the windows helped.
- Carolina (10/5): Great experience! Staff was very attentive! -
- Aurika (8/5): Cheap place near city center. - The location is good, not far from the main attractions, you can easily walk to reach old city. The smell of cleaning stuff (chlorine) was very strong and the breakfast is poor, its only croissant and cappuccino.
- Kevin (7/5): Good location. - Good location, man on the desk very helpful.
- Anish (6/5): Pleasant - Location was perfect, close to the Colosseum and train station. Poorest breakfast, just a single coroso and a cappuccino.
- Ilias (7/5): Value for money - Centrally located one bed room, clean and had all necessary appliances for a short stay, metro station 100m away ,helpful staff
- Elisa (6/5): Pleasant - The position is incredible, and the room is big enough for two people. Very clean and the breakfast is absolutely delicious. A good plus is the air conditioning and some water that the host left for us when we arrived. The furniture was showing heavy signs of wear. The toilet was making a very loud noise every time we were opening the water. The pictures were not matching with the real conditions of the room, but overall the cleanliness of the place and the position made up for the bad aspects. I suggest the place for a night for sure.
- Mark (7/5): Good - Very good location, nice breakfast, lovely and helpful host. Good value for money
- Arsen (8/5): Very good -
- Roza (8/5): Very good -
- Maria (10/5): Exceptional - Pretty close to the colosseum and bus stop. Safe neighborhood at night.
- Paola (8/5): The owner was really nice. The place was in a really good position near bus and subway stops and near the main attractio - Very good position near bus and subway stops
- Muthanna (7/5): Good -
- Migle (8/5): Very good - The room had all it needed but it could use some renovations and small improvements would do wonders to the place as it is in a perfect location and has delicious breakfast (croissant and coffee) The receptionist barely spoke English making all the communications about little things harder.
- Fakhri (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was good during our stay. The place located in a good location, 10 minutes from Colosseum.
- Milica (10/5): My stay was perfect. It was great experience and I enjoyed every moment. - Staff was very helpful, they were available all the time to us which meant a lot.
We liked that brekfast was included, and very much like the place - bar sangio was perfect.
Everyting was super close, location is great. Also bus station was near.
- Ioana (9/5): Superb - Nice place to stay for short trip. Great breakfast nearby at Sangiano
- Bohdan (7/5): Good -
- Alexander (8/5): Very good -
- Igor (10/5): Great stay, fantastic place, place is great located and very nice and communicative owner of the apartment -
- Agnieszka (9/5): Superb - Close to Colloseum. Delicious cappuccino with cornetto for breakfast.
- Anna (8/5): Very good - All is good. Warm and clean, location is close to main sights. The furniture in the room is very old, as are the wall. I think it could do with some cosmetic repairs.
- Arslan (7/5): Good - the croissants were very nice I didn't like the noise that came out when I turned on the bathroom tap.
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Czire (8/5): Very good - The location is excellent if someone wants to be right near the Lateran. Minimalist, not necessarily in a good way.
Instead of just one, at least two chairs, and a coat rack on the back of the door or on the wall would be necessary.
The walls around the bed could also use some renovation.
- Steponas (9/5): Superb -
- Irena (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mald69 (10/5): Perfect location - Strategic location and very friendly customer service Non, all good
- Aleksandar (10/5): Exceptional - I would like to praise the cleanliness of the accommodation and the pleasant and helpful staff and management.
Great location, just a 10 minute walk to the Colosseum, as well as close to lots of bus stops and the metro.
Highly recommended!
- Vladimir (6/5): Good but can be easily improved! - The breakfast was a good thing but consist only of one very sweet croissant and modest coffee. The room is actually a part of a larger flat that was reorganized in two-three guest rooms with very small bathrooms. Interesting, good located but for a night. The staff was polite. The main problem is noise in the room of elevator or something like gas boiler, this is really a big problem. There is no bathroom at the reception area. WI-FI could be much better. The elevator exists but is very complicated for everyday use. We felt a pressure to tell the exact time of our check in.
- Juan (9/5): Good - It’s an good property to stay but some things could improve such as new mattress and decor Just the mattress, it could be changed
- Zsolt (8/5): It was perfect for 3 nights. - The breakfast in the next restaurant was delicious but only one coffee and croissant was included in the price. WIFI was poor.
- Jose (5/5): Good location. Rooms seem dirty. Expensive based on their quality. - It did not seem to clean the bathroom. It was quite expensive for our expectations. The breakfast was standard italian brioche + café but I got an stomachache afterwards.
- Melissa (10/5): Amazing location for a good price - It was amazingly close to the coliseum, the staff was always friendly and they always checked on us to make sure everything was okay. All the property was clean, the bathroom and towels were also clean and changed.
Definitely will stay again in the future.
- Francisco (6/5): Pleasant - Location
The host was very friendly Bed sheets where wet the first night, we asked to change them and the next night they were humid... not a "bad' wet but stilk not confortable to sleep. Had to take them out.
- Vasyl (9/5): Nice and pleasant stay - Host is very friendly and helpful
- Tom (10/5): Helpful staff , lovely room, perfect stay - Comfortable beds, air conditioned rooms and good service
- Niket (7/5): Good -
- Domagoj (10/5): Exceptional - Great location , nice and clean accommodation. Personal very attentive and disponible. Recommending to everyone 10/10
- Johanna (6/5): Pleasant -
- Robin (5/5): Ok - The location. The headboard on the bed was in a very poor condition - falling apart.
- Cienna (6/5): Pleasant - The room is clean. Location is close from Roma Termini and Colosseum. It includes free breakfast. Staff communicates to you via whatsapp before arriving to inform you everything you need. The bed looks worn out. Wifi is not working unless you go to the reception area.
- Dianie (7/5): Good - Good location close to the Colosseum. The breakfast was awesome which made us feel like locals. I would highly recommend.
- Maine (7/5): Clean and chill room - Very clean and easy to find! The location is really good for those coming by train to Rome and those who wanna see historical center. Is worthy the money, the room is simple but have all must, like AC and a small fridge. Don’t expect a breakfast that you can have a lunch later noon. Is really simple!
- Carlos (10/5): Perfection, incredible price and location, highly recommend. - The people working there are extremely helpful and always smiling. They were all the time supporting us with everything we needed.
The manager is extremely kind and amazing person. Everything was PERFECT.
- Amalendu (1/5): Horrible place and service. I'm dissatisfied with the quality of the place/service. Don't stay there - Horrible place and service. I'm dissatisfied with the quality of the place/service. Don't stay there.
1. Molds in the shower irritated allergies and caused asthma.
2. Bathroom sink was not draining and couldn't use it.
3. Elevator didn't work and we had to use the staircase to go to our room on the 5th floor while my wife had a recent ankle surgery.
4. Air conditioner didn't work while we were burning in our room.
5. No staff was available after 5:00 PM.
I reported all the above issues to the property owner, but he couldn't take care of these issues. I checked in on July 19 for 2 nights, but couldn't stay on the night of 20th and left the property on that night. Horrible place and service. I'm dissatisfied with the quality of the place/service. Don't stay there.

- Dirkie (7/5): Good -
- Maximiliano (8/5): Very good -
- Tošić (9/5): Superb -
- Stanica (9/5): Superb -
- Mehmet (7/5): Good -
- Dean (4/5): Disappointing - You couldn't flush anything down the toilet . And the room was very small. Over €100 a night I was expecting a lot more
- Đuretić (10/5): Exceptional - The accomodation was great value for money and Ricardo, the owner was so nice and helpfull. Also, the cleanliness of the apartment was great. It was cleaned every day, they made to sure to changefresh towels every day. Apartment is close to metro and bus station(manzoni) and they also let us leave our bags until we left out flight which was quite later in the day, around 9 pm. So, to resume it all, you won't regret staying in here.
- Magdalena (9/5): Superb - The staff was very nice and helpful. The room was perfectly clean. The place overall was great too.
- Sofia (9/5): It was a very good experience staying here, and well worth the price! Will definitely be back - The staff was very attentive and accommodating! They let us check in late when our flight flew in at night, and let us keep our luggage there all day on our day of departure while we explored the city. In a good location (just a short walk from the Coliseum) and they gave us a free coffee/cappuccino and croissant at the cafe next door for breakfast! The room was great for the price we paid and very clean. The wifi wasn't great, but other than that everything was great.
- Vito (10/5): Exceptional -
- Arunkumar (8/5): Very good -
- Breno (8/5): Comfortable stay in a good location - It was exactly what we expected, very close to the colosseum and very comfortable. It was hard to communicate in English with the staff and the host

Owner was very friendly,and he can try to help us to connected Wi-Fi,which wasn't working good ,had a low speed.
- Arkadiusz (10/5): I recommend that place for short stays! The host was amazing! - Very good location, simple check-in, comfortable beda and truly friendly & helpful staff. The place is quite old so I’d consider some renovation.
- Polina (9/5): Superb - Location - great!
Breakfast - awesome cappuccino and pastry at the cafe nearby! (included)
Cute doors leading to the inner terrace, very old fashioned and worth filming the video how you would open it, interesting latches.
I liked the feel of the period building with it's open elevator shafts.
- Andrei (6/5): Pleasant -
- Besmir (10/5): Exceptional - The room was very beautiful. Location is good. Staff was helpful and friendly, rooms were comfortable and clean. I would really recommend it. Next time we're in Rome, we will definitely stay there.
- Volodymyr (8/5): Very good - Good location, breakfast is a croissant (delicious)) and coffee in the nearby cafe downstairs. It was clean, although there are marks/scratches on the walls. The owner was in touch and tried to help.
- Anne (9/5): Great stay - Clean. Friendly staff. Great value Drains smelt
- Julie (8/5): Very good -
- Richard (8/5): Very good -
- Camelia (7/5): Ok for 1 night - The location is very close to the city center, means of transport, sights and shops. breakfast is actually a croissant and a coffee at the corner bar
room no 2 very dark, overlooking an inner courtyard and with a terrible smell of sewage. the tv doesn't work
the brick ceiling is interesting because it is a very old building...but I wonder if they can be detached over the bed? I saw some places with missing bricks.....
- Aleksandr (10/5): Perfect - Perfect location in non-crowded area with only local roman people around. This is very authentic.
20 minutes to Colosseum by foot. 10 minutes to Termini.
Very careful cleaning made by staff every day better and more careful than in many hotels I had stayed before.
Very kind owner is always in touch by whatsup (very unusual for Italy and booking.com owners).
Thank you Ricardo and unknown guy who met us the first day.
- Ashwinkumar (9/5): Superb - Very friendly staff and helpful and good communication, location is very close to the Colosseum WiFi was not powerful
- Erika (7/5): Perfect stay for explor the city. - Close to the centre. Staff is very friendly and considerate. Beds are not really comfortable.
- Emilia (9/5): Nice Location and good service - It had an elevator, a/c and a really nice italian breakfast at the café in the corner The safe wasn’t working but if I had asked they probably would’ve fixed it
- Robert (8/5): Very good -
- Aral (9/5): Superb -
- Damjan (5/5): Not worth the money - Location. Very close to Colloseum. Ok only for a quick night stay (when you don't need to use the room much). Host was ok. It's a room in the 5th floor of an old building with an 'ancient' elevator (the most important thing during your stay is not to forget to close both elevator doors, otherwise you'll have to walk to the fifth floor as the elevator won't work. That actually means 8 floors as the ceilings are the old pre-war ceilings). Althought room has got everything that is listed for 3 stars (a/c, TV, small fridge, kettle) it's not what you would expect. Maybe that is not so much of an owner's fault as it is the hotel categorization's fault. And be careful - there is no breakfast! You just get a coupon for coffee and one pastry at the end of the street. Last day we didn't even use it as the staff there was - as it was 90% of all the staff in Roma - not very serviceable (you can easily tell they are not pleased if you don't order anything else). With all that in mind, 100 eur per night for the room is extremely expensive. It would be much more fair if this was a youth hostel for some 30 or 40 eur per night. Plus, don't flush the toilet at night as the canalization system (pump) is very loud.
- Ivana (4/5): we booked our stay here just for a sleepover, because our purpose for this trip was walking through Rome. We expected at - bathroom is new and it’s nice and clean.
bed was ok, but room is too small air conditioning was leaking. We told the guy who opened the appartament for us-but nothing was done.
also there’s a problem with ants
- Sandra (10/5): Helpful - Everything
- Holly (10/5): Exceptional -
- Clifford (8/5): Good value. Very clean. Well located. - Great location for metro and walking. We arrived 7 pm on a very hot day. It would have been much better for the AC to have been turned on a few hours before. It’s not a big unit and it took all night to cool down. We slept poorly. Otherwise it was good value for the money. No complaints
- Clifford (8/5): We would recommend this place to friends. Good value. - Well located to walk or take Metro to main attractions. Good restaurants nearby. Not fancy but had everything we need including AC and the price was right. Even full daily room service. Communication with the owner was easy. There were a couple of maintenance items that we reported directly to the owner and they were dealt with. No real issues.
- Alec (9/5): Superb - Boutique style accommodation in well-established apartment block in great location close to the major sites of Rome. Easy to access from Central Train/Bus Station by Metro line to Manzoni. Secure, compact, neat room with all amenities including air conditioning and small balcony. Good WiFi. Friendly staff. Breakfast (croissants and coffee) provided at nearby Sangio restaurant. Lovely way to start the day in Rome.
- Peter (8/5): Good choice for a short stay in Rome. -
- Francesco (4/5): Disappointing -
- Roh (9/5): Reasonable price & Clean - Good location & Clean
Free breakfast included
Prompt reply from host Limited open hour at reception
- Rosemary (9/5): Good value for central Rome - In a good situation near to the colosseum and close to nice restaurants .
No street noise as on 5th Floor of building
Helpful staff Humming noise on and off all night long from some sort of heater
- Phuong (10/5): We have a pleasant stay. the host is very hospitable and the location is just so perfect - it a very close to Colloseum. - I love everything here. Nothing at all
- Viktoria (10/5): Exceptional - The Location was perfekt it is 2station away from Termini!:) The breakfast was very delicious and always fresh! And our room was very comfortable too, the staff helped us in everything! We were really satisfied and happy there! Thx😊
- Catarina (9/5): Great location, good value for money - The location was amazing. Breakfast was also nice (for us more than enough), but there were plenty of extra options for people that require more than coffee and a croissant (for extra pay). Riccardo was absolutely amazing, always making sure everything was fine and we had everything we needed, he was a very welcoming host. We also had fresh towels everyday, and the room was always very clean! Even though the room was quiet (it was facing the inside of the building, so no noise from the street), there was always a permanent noise from a water pump that distributed the water to the rooms (you eventually got used to it, but it was a bit annoying). Also you could very easily ear people talking in the adjacent room, the noise isolation was very bad. I would say that was the only downside.
