Guest Reviews
- Sebastian Augusto (10/5): - La propiedad muy atenta a cualquier detalle que pudiera hacer mas cómoda nuestra estancia. Muy limpio y funcional.

- Britta (8/5): - Sehr schönes Apartment in toller Lage – viele Sehenswürdigkeiten sind gut zu Fuß erreichbar. Die Ausstattung war gut und die Betten besonders bequem. Hervorzuheben ist der freundliche und jederzeit erreichbare Kontakt zur Verwalterin über WhatsApp. Insgesamt sehr empfehlenswert. Ein kleiner Minuspunkt ist, dass das Apartment insgesamt etwas dunkel war.
- Giada (9/5): Soggiorno fantastico - Appartamento in una zona tranquilla, molto vicino a Vaticano e alla metro. Spazi ampi, noi abbiamo soggiornato in 5 senza problemi. La comunicazione con Melania é stata efficiente e molto disponibile. Consiglio! Da sistemare il doccino della doccia.
- luigi_cantone (5/5): - L’alloggio gode di una posizione strategica, ideale per esplorare comodamente la città. La zona è vivace e ricca di servizi, con un’ampia scelta di locali e ristoranti a portata di mano. Un grande valore aggiunto è la vicinanza alla fermata della metropolitana, che rende gli spostamenti rapidi e semplicissimi. Ho apprezzato molto anche la praticità della raccolta differenziata, grazie alla presenza dei cassonetti a pochissimi passi dall'appartamento. Purtroppo, ho riscontrato alcune criticità durante il soggiorno che hanno influito sul comfort:
Bagno: Il soffione della doccia è risultato quasi inutilizzabile a causa del forte accumulo di calcare, che rendeva il getto d'acqua molto "duro", quasi doloroso.
Riposo: Ho trovato i cuscini eccessivamente alti e duri, rendendo il sonno poco confortevole (un aspetto soggettivo, ma che segnalo per correttezza).
Pulizia e Manutenzione: È purtroppo presente della muffa in prossimità delle finestre e dietro le tende, un dettaglio che meriterebbe un intervento immediato per garantire un ambiente più salubre.

- Michal (9/5): - Lokalizacja – bardzo blisko Watykanu, do wszystkich ważnych atrakcji również można dojść pieszo. Blisko do sklepów spożywczych i restauracji. Świetny kontakt z obsługą apartamentu. Mieszkanie położone na niskim parterze, przez co jest dość mało światła słonecznego i lekko wyczuwalny jest zapach wilgoci przy wejściu do apartamentu. Natomiast nie jest to problem kluczowy, jako miejsce do noclegu po intensywnym zwiedzaniu super.
- Confident Otter (10/5): Great apartment near everything - Perfect location, so quiet and just minutes to everywhere. The apartment was very clean, comfortable and furnished well. I would definitely stay again. Accessing the property was easy and the host stayed in contact throughout the stay to make sure we had everything we needed. Just minor things that are easy fixes. Could use a few more blankets and pillows, and offer laundry soap.
- Judith (10/5): Great location, super accomodation with 2 double bedrooms. - Comfortable beds. Great communication with staff/owner. Location. Shower very powerful and had tendency to move with any slight change in water pressure and spray over the screen and into bathroom area. This would explain why the accommodation has a slight damp musty smell.
- Chacón Varela (9/5): Excelente si quieres ir al Vaticano. - Las camas muy cómodas. La cocina muy útil.
Muy cerca de la parada de metro de Ottaviano y el barrio es cómodo y bonito.
Andando al Vaticano son unos 10 minutos. El agua de la ducha no salía lo suficientemente caliente para 5 personas.
- Natalia (8/5): Todo muy bien 🙂 - Sii nos gustó el piso! Y todo muy bien Había un poco de ruido en la planta de arriba
- Oro71 (10/5): Un soggiorno comodo e sereno, dall’arrivo alla partenza. - Facilissimo: Melania è stata impeccabile, ci ha inviato tutte le foto e le indicazioni su WhatsApp. La pioggia .

- MATTEO (10/5): Super Wohnung - Super Lage, nicht weit weg von der U-Bahn und vom Vatikan aber trotzdem ruhig.
Unsere Kinder und wir konnten sehr gut schlafen.
Wohnung hat alles, was man braucht.
Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis Hat alles gepasst
- Jessica (10/5): -
- Simon (10/5): Excellent Value and Location. - Location was fantastic. Easy walk to Vatican City and easy bus trip into other parts of Rome. Nearby express supermarkets and passiterisse /coffee shops.
Actual premises were safe and secure. Facilities great.
Linen and soaps/shampoo all generous.
Rooms are big! Highly recommend as a place to book. Single bed in lounge was a sofa-bed. Was a little uncomfortable. The other two person beds were excellent.
- Sian (8/5): -
- Kristel (10/5): Väga hubane majutus Vatikani lähedal - Vaikne asukoht, hubane ja mõnus korter. Väga lähedal metroole, Vatikani linnale, suurepärane ja lai valik toidukohti lähedal.
Perenaine oli väga sõbralik, andis soovitusi liiklemiseks ja sisseostude tegemiseks.
- aurélie (6/5): Pour un séjour proche du Vatican - Le logement est situé a deux pas du Métro et du Vatican.
Heureusement qu’il avait la climatisation.
Nous avons échangé avec Mélania uniquement par message, elle est très gentille.
La résidence est calme. Literie confortable et des oreillers pour tous les goûts. Le logement n’était pas propre , nous qui avons l’habitude de marcher pieds nu, je ne vous raconte pas l’etat des chaussettes. Logement tres humide car au -1. Pas de VMC,il y a donc de la moisissure sur les mûrs. De plus, il y a une machine à laver mais pas d’étendoir à linge donc inutile.
C'est dommage qu’il n’y ait pas à disposition une éponge pour faire la vaisselle. Le meuble vasque de la salle de bain s’arrache du mûrs.
Il n'y a pas assez de verres non plus.
Je n’aime pas du tout ce système de ckech-in/check-out par boîte à clés.

Ogni camera dotata di condizionatori
Bagno abbastanza grande Cucina piccola
Alcune cose da sistemare come ad esempio i pensili della cucina, le perdite nel muro del salotto
- Nemi (9/5): Overall, we had a good stay. The place was clean, rooms were spacious. We would come back. to the r - The location was walking distance to St Peter's Basilica, restaurants, markets & metro subway. We felt comfortable walking around the area. The door to the room( third door) was difficult to open. It would have been nicer to have a small foldable round table with four chairs in the kitchen.
- Stephen (9/5): Superb -
- Dianne (9/5): England and Hungary stay - Very comfortable stay Not having two sets of keys as each of the couples were out at different places during the time we had there
- Vicki (9/5): Superb - Good location, comfortable beds, fairly well equipped kitchen It is a semi-basement - we expected it to be a bit dark and that wasn't an issue but there was a bit of a smell of damp. Not too bad though.
- Agboh (3/5): Poor - There is nothing to like about the apartments. It is deceptive compared to photos uploaded to booking.com page.
Booking should remove the property from their page. Its a basement apartment and I won't recommend it to anyone as it would make you sick. No proper ventilation system. No value for the money paid. There is mould, condensation in the bathroom with the walls and windows dripping water, see attached photos evidence. I have video recordings that's shows every detail but can't upload do to size. The whole house smells of mould, including the bedding that makes kids sick and have allergic irritation, have to visit phermacy to get medication.
No Kitchen napkins, coffee, tea or sugar. No hot water kettle and oven. No detergent for wagibg machine. No extra bin bag.
The owner Stefano invade our privacy at 7.30pm opening the entry door without hearing from us, it was the hook behind the door that prevented his entry. When questioned he responded "am the owner" and he want to collect cash for tourists tax. Imagine owner coming to a property already rented out at 7.30pm on Sunday evening. Imagine such rudeness, and still can't understand his intention. His choice of words are rude and threatening..
- Maria (8/5): Very good - Clean and spacious for 4 adults. Just a few minutes away from subway and buses. And good walking distance going to Basilica.
- Alicia (9/5): Superb -
- Misiek146 (10/5): Great place to stay for holiday 👍👌 - Close to city center and metro station Ottaviano. Rooms are clean and with anything what you need. Staff are very helpful. Highly recommended!

- Andrea (9/5): Perfect - Place is in a good location, close to many restaurants and tourist places, it’s really a big and comfy
- Maria (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ofelya (5/5): Passable -
- Nvard (10/5): Good location and comfortable apartment - From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted with a cozy atmosphere and a spotlessly clean space. The apartment was beautifully furnished and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable state. We also appreciated the convenient location, which allowed us to easily explore the city. Additionally, the communication with the host was excellent.
- Zuzanna (9/5): Superb - The apartment has a great location - super close to Vatican City and also there are a lot of public transportation options nearby. It is nicely decorated and equipped very well - you can find there most of the kitchen accessories you would think of. Multiple restaurants, coffee places and stores in the area. Also, the hosts are nice, friendly people and communication with them was just a pleasure. Highly reccomend this place! :) The only negative thing that comes to my mind is that the apartment is in the basement which makes it a bit dark and cold, but it didn't bother us that much in the end. Still a great place!
- Vladimir (10/5): Exceptional - Very good location near vatican! House was clean and cosy.
Host was also kind to check in with us.
- Bruce (7/5): Good -
- Milica (10/5): Exceptional -
- nevo (10/5): Awesome stay and apartment - The interior and the cleaning level was delux The washing machine wasn't working properly...
- Milan (9/5): Fine location and superb apartment -
- Jovanka (9/5): Great apartment - Clean and comfortable
- Dino (7/5): Good for a family of 4 spacious well kept - Great location, close to restaurants and walking distance to the Vatican Bathroom needs some improvement
- Eileen (5/5): We were a little disappointed but we appreciated having somewhere to stay that was close to the sites. - The beds were comfortable. Location was good. It was infested with ants. We lost power when we used the toaster. Luckily we found the breaker to restore power. It took 24 hours to receive requested towels so everyone in our party had a towel.
- Kengo (1/5): Aweful hospitality and sub-standard property for the price. - Close to the Vatican, but you can get a much better place for the same price. Aweful hospitality and sub-standard property for the price.
- There were hundreds of ants all over the kitchen counter. When we told the owner, the response was, "it's normal in Italy" and that we should spray the inspect repellent with our baby in the flat. I've been to Italy many times so I know this to be obviously untrue.
- What you may not notice from their photos is that it's a basement flat, and the place is very damp, smells aweful, and mildue all over the place.
- There's no thermostat - the owner told me "the hours are established by the condo", so with no easy way to control without knowing when it comes on or off, most of the time it was either way too hot or too cold.
- Facilities descriptions are not correct, no kettle, no safety deposit box, no iron.
- They only provided 2 rolls of toilet paper for 3 days stay for 4 people, no sponge or washing up liquid to wash dishes, not washing powder for the washing machine. When we asked the owner if they can help with any of the above as we were only staying for 3 nights, they said "we're not a hotel" and refused to help. Awful hospitality - the vast majority of places I've booked through Booking.com either provided all of these or helped if we asked. And apparently the lack of basic salt/pepper/tea/coffee is because of the law to protect allergic people - in that case almost all accommodations I've stayed in have been unlawful - utterly ridiculous lies.
- WiFi signal is aweful in the whole property and kept cutting off.
- Nikolai (7/5): Good - Location is prefect - very close to Vatican and underground from where you can reach any part of the city. Building is good one. Rooms are big enough. There is dishes and you can prepare some food to eat there. The host is kind and helpful. There is a supermarket nearby. And a lot of food shops. I wished the place to be more clean. I had to clean the floor by myself because of visible dirtiness. Also I did not realized that the apartment is partially under the ground floor which makes is kinda low light. So please take this in account when you book - especially for us it was not a big issue because we were leaving as soon as we gets up and returned in the end of the day. Value for money seems ok.
- Avi (9/5): Superb -
