Guest Reviews
- gülsüm (7/5): konum güzel yataklar rahat - yataklar rahat 4 kişi için odann büyüklüğü gayet iyi apartman biraz bakmsız sonrasnda valizlerimizi bırakmak için gidiş saatine kadar başka yer bulmak zorunda kaldk
- Tomasz (8/5): - Bardzo dobra lokalizacja. Bardzo pomocna obsługa. Możliwość zostawienia rzeczy po wymeldowaniu na duży plus.
- EKATERINA (10/5): - Марта! Чудесная девушка
- Filippo (4/5): -
- William (10/5): Really friendly service and clean rooms! - Clean and good spot
- Łukasz (7/5): - Marta was as very nice lady who took a lot of time to explain everything. The building and surroundings were a bit run-down, and the room was a bit dark and old. Minus : the extra cost of luggage storage, whitch was Free at guesthouse next street
- Klara (9/5): Gondos házigazdák, kiváló környék - A környék nagyszerű volt: metróhoz, tömegközlekedéshez, és a főbb nevezetességekhez is közel. A házigazdák ajánlottak jó éttermeket a közelben, amelyek közül az egyiket különösen megkedveltük. A Booking.com-on szereplő leírásból nem vált egyértelművé, hogy az árban nincs benne a reggeli. Most is utánanéztem, és a következő mondat szerepel: "A vendégeket minden nap svédasztalos reggeli várja." Igaz, a részletesebb leírásnál már látszik, hogy reggelit nem adnak. Bennünket ez ugyan különösebben nem zavart, de az ár-érték arány eldöntésénél az ilyesmi mégis számíthat.
- Mirela (8/5): -
- JP Laurent (10/5): Full of coziness. - I Did not have any breakfast included, however facility kitchen had all the supplies and gadgets you might need for a breakfast. Location is not really a city center, but is very close to any transport station. Easy to get to any popular area in 20-25 minutes of walking. Also area is full of restaurants. I recommend Elettra which is across the street. it is epic. Can't think of a single thing I could dislike. If you are not an extremely picky, this place is for you.
- Ersoy (8/5): -
- Ancuta (10/5): placut - Aproape de punctele de interes fiind aproape de gara este un cartier mai nesigur
- Jessica (10/5): -
- alvaro (10/5): Excelente para unos días de vacaciones - La atención recibida por la anfitriona, todo muy limpio Nada, era lo mostrado en las fotos
- Alex (7/5): Great location, good value for money. Room is clean and comfortable. Perfect for a short stay. Thin walls so beware of n - Location was awesome. Inside was clean and fairly modern Thin walls. Front door lock was one of those wireless WiFi locks, it stopped working randomly and we had to get the staff to come and give us a key. Why not just use a key?
- LYNETTE (8/5): - The property very good and excellent location
- Fantille (10/5): Trop bien! - L’hôte très accueillante! Elle m’a tout expliqué correctement et m’a donné une carte de la ville et des recommandations de resto et magasin! Chambre très belle et propre. Proximité avec la gare. Climatisé. Le quartier dangereux la nuit. Mal isolé! On entend toute la nuit le bruit de la circulation!!
- PIERRE-ANDRE (9/5): -
- Caroline (9/5): Great location - Great location and staff are super helpful.
- Riccardo (8/5): Camera confortevole vicina alla stazione Termini - La posizione era eccellente, molto vicina alla stazione Termini. Marta è stata molto disponibile con suggerimenti sui posti per mangiare e sulle attrazioni da vedere e come raggiungerle.
- Katsir (8/5): A great stay! - Iliana was so kind
We were able to check in late at night and were kind to let us leave our baggage on the last night
The room was very clean
We got new towels each day The shower was a little confusing but we understood and knew that the host would help and answer us at any time
- Maksim (6/5): - Отличное месторасположение, рядом вокзал, кафе, рестораны, магазины и рукой подать до всех достопримечательностей, всё в пешей доступности. Рядом две станции метро, есть парк. Большое спасибо за позднее заселение! Старая сантехника, много пыли под кроватью, на зеркале и тд. На простыни было много чёрных волос. Очень неудобная кровать и ужасно жёсткие подушки (на любителя). Тонкие стены и слышно, как соседи смотрят телевизор. За эту цену можно выбрать хороший отель! Если вы любите старые комуналки с общей кухней и шумными соседями, то вам сюда.
- Karina (9/5): Wonderful Stay! Ilaria was very helpful and answers your questions straightaway! - Location was good! Metro and trains within walking distance. Cafe shop on the corner if you fancy any nice sandwich, latte or any sweet Italian cake. I will definitely stay again if I ever come back to Rome. There was not a kitchen knife in the drawer but we managed to cut our melon using a simple knife for meals.
- Daniele (9/5): Ótimo custo benefício - A proprietária era muito simpática. As toalhas eram trocadas diariamente. A área de convivência tinha café, geladeira, louças e chaleira à disposição. É muito próxima à estação Termini, o que é conveniente. A vizinhança não passa muita sensação de segurança.
- francesco (8/5): - Comodo rispetto la stazione e la metro, l'area comune ben fornita. Le camere sono spaziose e l'ospite simpatica e disponibilissima Il palazzo non è dei più curati e puliti (le camere e zona comune sono comunque belle e pulite)
- Swietopelek (10/5): Wonderful stay as always - This is our third time we stay at Ilaria's place and we surely will come back here for our next trip to Rome. We love how the apartament is placed, we love the commodities such as AC and thick blinders in the windows
- Anna (8/5): Very good - Great location, pretty central, there was a common kitchen with free coffee and tea and cups, plates, cutlery and some basic condiments.
Cleaning lady was coming almost everyday for the sheets and garbage. There is an option for washing machine and dryer with a charge if you like to wash your clothes. A free bottle of water per person was given to us when we arrived and there was some filtered water in the fridge. Beds were a bit small and I was a bit scared I might fall during the night so I slept a bit stressed the first couple nights but ok I didn’t fall in the end 😜
Also it would be nice if the tv was smart and could support platforms like Netflix as television there is only in Italian so it’s a bit pointless for us to watch cause we don’t understand anything 😜
- Irma (9/5): Would recommend - Close to Termini station and also to other main places. Was coffee, cookies,water as much as you need. We booked standard apartments but get Luxury room which is more nice as we booked previously
- Ovidiu (8/5): Very good - it was close to metro and other turistic objectives. The duvet was wrapped in sheets that moved during the night, and I would end up covered only by the duvet. On top of that, the walls of the rooms were very thin, so I could hear the neighbors all the time. There was a lot of dust on the floor in the room.
From the photos, it appeared that the apartment had its own living room. However, in reality, the accommodation featured a shared kitchenette, with each guest only having a room with a private bathroom.
- Patricia (10/5): Perfectly joyful! - Beautiful accommodation that completely exceeded our expectations. The room was huge and beautiful, beds made every day, a small kitchen with mugs, glasses, plates, cutlery, coffee machine etc was very handy. But the most brilliant thing about this place is Ilaria the host, nothing is too big or small. She was always contactable, incredibly friendly and really made our stay amazing. Check in instructions were clear, especially as we arrived late, there was no issue getting into the building and our room. The location is right by Termini and lots of restaurants and cafes. We can't wait to come back. 10/10, one of the best we've stayed in😊 The mattresses are quite firm, but that's just personal preference. We got used to it after the first night.
- Ilias (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent location near two metro stations and the central train station. Walking distance from city center. Amazing facilities with extra comfy beds and spacious bathroom and shower. Ilaria was always there for every question and super helpful.
- Petrovic (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect as always. ☺️
- Jelena (8/5): Very good -
- Katyayani (9/5): Highly recommended for families with kids -
- Mat (7/5): Good - I stayed at Joyful Guest House during my vacation in Rome. The property is an apartment converted into a guest house, featuring private rooms and a shared kitchen near the entrance. My room was small but functional, equipped with a bed, wardrobe, TV, desk, and a private bathroom.
Pros:
The room and facilities were clean.
The staff was friendly and welcoming.
When I reported an internet issue, they fixed it after a day. Cons:
- Washing Machine Misleading Information:
I chose this place over others in the same price range because it advertised washing machines in the rooms. However, upon arrival, I discovered there was only a shared washing machine and dryer in the kitchen area, and using them cost €15. While the listing stated that laundry services incur an extra cost, I believe this setup is misleading, as using a shared machine is different from a full-service laundry. Neither speaking to the staff nor contacting customer support resolved the issue, so I ended up using a nearby laundry service instead.
- Accessibility Issues:
Although the building has an elevator, there are five steps at the entrance leading to it. This made accessing the elevator difficult, especially with a stroller. The elevator itself is very narrow and old-fashioned, so larger strollers would likely not fit. We were fortunate that ours was compact, but it was still a challenge.
- Robert (7/5): The unit was very good, but the neighborhood is next to the Termini train station. Be careful. - In walking distance to very many interesting and very historical churches, lovely parks, restaurants, Colosseum and other sites. The host of this unit was very friendly, helpful and accommodating as well.
- Rushdi (10/5): Excellent location and facility - Excellent locations, facilities were great. Few days there was also housekeeping done. Nothing much to complain
- Alison (9/5): Superb -
- Ignacio (8/5): Very good -
- Abdul (8/5): Very good -
- Igor (8/5): Adequate and great staff - Comfy beds, great friendly and helpful staff, room was changed upon arrival to fit our needs. Laundry option is good to have. 2nd floor kitchen was too old and in urgent need of refurbishment, though rooms are great.
- Kamila (8/5): Very good -
- Rheola (7/5): Good -
- Anya (10/5): Exceptional -
- Martins (5/5): An experience for sure, but in a good location - Simple property with all you need for a quick stay near the train station in Rome. The property is just an apartment converted into a guest house, which at first might even be a bit shocking - you arrive at an apartment building with various locals walking in and out of their building as you wait for someone to arrive for about 15 minutes. The guests each have a room with a shared kitchen area, and hence it feels more amateurish than one might expect. The facilities are not as modern as the pictures might suggest. The staff are friendly, but some don’t speak English and are not that well organised.
- Emil (10/5): The price and quality….it’s worth it…! - Good location, near to every public station and you could walk to almost anywhere you want seeing interesting historical places …. It’s a question of choice! Clean, and pleasant staff, very friendly people, good equipped !
- Alyssa (9/5): Superb -
- Damla (10/5): Great stay - The property was very clean and the host was super helpful and responsive to any of my texts Property was located 1 block away from the termini station which is great. However if you’re traveling alone, the area can get sketchy at night, I was little nervous walking to hotel at 10pm.
- Sharon (4/5): Will not recommend - Spacious room, kitchen facilities. 1. Dodgy area, not for solo travellers. On one of the nights, we saw a man hiding behind the building’s main door and when he saw us, he asked us to shush and let him hide. Very scary experience.
On the next day, there was a mattress where he stood, making it hard to get out of the door with our luggage. It looked unsafe to touch or move it by ourselves. Picture attached.
2. One of the beds in our room had bugs.
3. Air conditioning very poor. Hardly functional.
4. Lift is extremely dated and looks unsafe.
- Harun (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jakub (10/5): Exceptional - Nice clean apartment after renovation Neighbours one floor over apartment where moving furnitures every day after 22:00 for few hours. Crazy think for me
- Christian (7/5): Good -
- Janet (10/5): Exceptional -
- Huda (9/5): Superb -
- Sanna-maija (10/5): We really enjoyed our stay! - Our room was very clean and nice. There was a cute bed for our baby. Noise from the street was a bit loud at times but i think its because its Rome :)
- Izolatii (9/5): Superb - the location is great, near Termini train station. we had lots of places to eat around .
the room is really big; the bathroom is small, but enough to take a shower
the host was really great
- Linh (9/5): Superb - Very close to Central station so it was super convenient. Comfy beds and clean. The host was very nice and gave us important information about which metro station to take and distance from the important sights.
- Milena (10/5): Exceptional -
- Alison (9/5): Superb - Friendly and helpful host. Location closer to train station, 20 minutes walking to colosseum and nice parks in the area. Clean and with shared fridge, coffee facilities. Secure access. No complaints
- Joshua (10/5): A very accessible property to visit Rome on a budget - We had a wonderful time at the property. The close proximity to Termini station makes it very accessible to all parts of Rome. The property has been refurbished recently and our stay was superb. Would highly recommend for a budget stay and easy access around Rome. Nothing in particular. The area where the property is not very well kept however we did not have and bad experience on this point. Still area is safe and in truth there is not much the host would be able to do. Fortunately enough the property does meet all the standards offered. So would definitely recommend.
- Leanne (10/5): Very pleasant stay. The beds and pillows were very comfortable and amenities were good! - Very central and close to the train station and in walking distance to all the main attractions. Was noisy from the street if the windows were open but otherwise not much else not to like.
- Fanni (9/5): Very recommend - Lovely host, very helpful, clean room, very good location, good price, loved everything!
- Ilias (10/5): A very nice room in Rome - Very comfortable and clean room with a very kind and helpful hostess The area was relatively deprived compared to the rest of the city
- Ismail (10/5): Harika konum, rahat konforlu bir tatil - It was a great facility, close to everything and the services were great. The middle of the bed was a little sunken, but we fixed it with our own means and we were very comfortable afterwards.
- Serkan (8/5): In our first day, we did not like the room and owner relocated us. Everything was good -
- Anna (8/5): Very good -
- Margarita (10/5): Exceptional - It felt brand new very clean and stylish.great value for the money, very modern . The host was replying very fast. Very clean, everything worked. Great stay, recommend a lot
- Klaudia (10/5): Highly recommend staying in Joyful Guest house!!! - Highly recommend staying here as firstly is close to Roma Central and metro station.
Everything was clean and brand new. Beds were very comfortable and room that I was in very quiet.
Ilaria is a great host, very helpful and knowledgeable on where to go and what to see. Nothing
- Alexandra (10/5): Exceptional - Nice and clean. Very friendly staff.
Many thanks
- Tchelet (7/5): Worth the price but the location is not great - Very close to Termini station and a near by metro station. Host was very friendly and helpful to every request. Location was not close to center.. about 30 min walk up and down the hills of Rome’s streets. Location was not friendly at all during the day and night, trash and smell of pee all around the hotel. We did not feel safe walking around the area during the night.
- Karthik (10/5): Exceptional -
- Davide (8/5): Very good -
- Matilda (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kurt (9/5): Great value for money in Rome! - Good sized room that was recently updated. Nice to have an elevator :)
- David (8/5): Perfect location for those we need to stay closeto central station - Very clean . Shower room is newly renovated.
Location is near the central staion and was good for me. Bed and pillows
- Cristina (10/5): I recommend it - Everything was very clean. Nice bathroom. Very comfortable bed. The kitchen was an added bonus. Plus the mini fridge in the room. Ilaria was very nice and allowed us to check in early. The location is perfect for city exploration on foot or by train/bus/metro.
- Haitham (8/5): Very good -
- Lakosa (10/5): Exceptional - Great location, close to Termini and the metro line. Colosseum is a 15 minute walk.
Ilaria, our host, was very nice and helped us with information about tourist sites and restaurants.
- Maria (9/5): Superb -
- Ellh (10/5): Exceptional - Ilaria is very hospitable and friendly. The room is super large and comfortable, warm and cozy. Located near Termini starion, metro, bus. Everyrhing is close, supermarket, chinese food, indian food, burgers. The centre of the city is so walkable. 20' to Coloseum. The house is so warm and it feels like home. The use of the kitchen is so helpful. Thank you for the snacks.
Definitely recommend 💕💕💕❤️❤️🎉🎉🤗🤗🌟🌟🙏🙏🙏
- Yeghiazaryan (9/5): Apart from the location, everything was great - The staff was very friendly, everything was clean and nice. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms very clean and also comfortable. The location was not the best. Right in front of the building there were some suspicious people, that make you feel unsafe. Some homeless people sitting just next to it. Late at night coming back to the hotel might be a bit uncomfortable. Also 20-25 minutes walk to Colloseum and other tourist places
- Walter (9/5): The staff (Ilaria) made our stay great! - Ilaria was great. She was very helpful and enthusiastic with suggestions of things to see and do and making dinner reservations for us. The bathroom outside the room.
- Andrija (10/5): 5 days in Rome - This was a great place, and the hostess was really kind and welcoming. The place is new, clean, and comfy.
- Nensi (10/5): The host and the cleaning lady were very kind! Location was very good and also very warm room! Very lovely stay! -
- Olha (10/5): Exceptional - Very comfortable location, close to Termini train station and half an hour walking distance from the major sightseeing spots. The apartment was very clean, with all the necessary equipment for having a pleasant stay. Many thanks to Ilaria who warmly welcomed us upon arrival and explained several important things about the city. Highly recommend this apartment for those who want to spend a wonderful time in Rome.
- Anonymous (7/5): Very central location and nice clean rooms and kitchen. The apartment is made up of four rooms surrounding the kitchen. - Great location, clean rooms, refrigerator and kettle available, free coffee, tea and snacks. The bathroom is clean, but smell like sewage. The walls are very thin, so hope for quiet neighbours
- Ha (10/5): Amazing hostess at a truly joyful place - Iralia is one of the warmest people I have ever met. From the moment she greeted us with her amazing energy I knew that everything about our stay would be wonderful. She puts the joy in Joyful Guest House and if I come back to Rome I will stay here just because of her.
As for the hotel: Joyful Termini is clean and simple. Located right next to the metro. Tea and snacks provided. Housekeeping comes and makes the bed too! Exceeded all my expectations for a very reasonable price in the heart of Rome. Nothing. We actually got moved to Joyful Termini due to lack of availability at Joyful Guest but Iralia found another room for our friends so we could all stay together.
- Agnieszka (9/5): Great owners - The room was specious and very clean. In the kotchen there was a coffee machine, teas and some cakes that was ideal for a breakfast or snack. The owner very nice and helpful. Really recomended The neighbourhood was a little bit dodgy, but once you enter to the aprtment you have a nice surprise
- Aida (8/5): The manager was great the morning breakfast drink and supplies were good. - It was clean, the outside street doesn’t give a fair view of the property. However, we arrived at the property around 10:30 pm and it was okay. Lot of graffiti in the block and garbage smell. One block street smell and graffiti.
- Guthrie (5/5): illaria very good and helpful ,the problem is the area and building. - Illaria is a very good host and very helpful , the room is a good room and comfortable.there are three rooms with a common area. near to tube station which is easy to use and cheap , within walking distance to some sites . also near to main train and bus station. there are also bus and trams to use nearby. The area and the building is a bit rough ,with overflowing large bins in the street outside, lots of graffiti on nearby premises. the safe in the room just sitting on a shelf ,not fixed to wall , and could be carried easily.
- Caitlyn (10/5): Perfect host - Ilaria was the perfect host. She had great recommendations for food and how to plan out our days.
Beds and Pillows are firm. Shared little kitchen type area with allocated fridge space.
Perfectly located to metro and train station, but quite a walk into the centre.
- Beth (9/5): Superb -
- Stefan (7/5): Good -
- Nikaolaos (10/5): Hidden gem in the heart of Rome - Wonderful stay! Our host, Ilaria, was very accommodating and friendly. The room was spacious with great a/c and we had access to the kitchen and could use the microwave for meals. The location was also ideal, mere minutes by foot from the central bus and train terminal and perhaps 150 meters from the Subway. Will definitely stay here again the next time we are in Rome! Guest house is on the second floor (third floor by U.S. thinking). The elevator works but is old, very small and narrow, not for people with claustrophobia (typical for older buildings in Rome).
- Helena (10/5): Exceptional - The place includes everything you need, the location is excellent and Ilaria is super, helpful, nice, and understanding.
- Никалина (10/5): if you want to stay in Rome for a short stay close to all the sights this is a great place - very friendly staff, clean and comfortable
- George (8/5): Very good -
- Katerina (4/5): Disappointing, in a bad area. - The AC was working, the room is a good size with comfortable beds and the hostess Ilaria was very kind. One week only before our arrival we were informed that it is not a hotel room but a room in a 3 bedroom apartment with no everyday cleaning. We fell entrapped but there was nothing we could do. We were promised though that we would have every day cleaning but that was not the case at the end. The location is convenient but the area is terrible, very dirty and feels unsafe, we were seeing rats regularly and even a homeless person defecating between cars! At night you don’t feel safe walking in that area. My 14 year old daughter was stressing out every time we were walking back to the room in the evening. The building is very old and extremely dirty with a cage elevator! The room definitely needs refurbishing, a new coat of paint and the cleaning was not the best. We found a dead bedbug so on that day only they changed our sheets. The toilet was not getting cleaned properly. I would never stay there again.
- Christina (10/5): Excellent - Clean and comfortable place. Common kitchen shared with 2 other flats, this was a very useful facility to have! The host was excellent, very friendly and gave us useful tips and directions. We had a lovely time, I would certainly go back to this place if in Rome. Thanks Ilaria ! N/a
- Nevena (10/5): Exceptional - It was very clean, and the host is very kind and helpful. Location is ok, all on foot distance. But being next to train station is not pleasant at night. It is safe but just not pleasant. All else was super!
- Blerina (10/5): Recommended stay! - Amazing host and comfy room
