Guest Reviews
- evries (8/5): Ética Empresarial - Cerca del Vaticano Que me olvidé dos pantalones importantes
Me comunique y el dueño 48 hs después me dijo que los tiro
Teniendo mi Nro de celular y sabiendo que vuelvo a Roma
Un disparate que me costo 150 euros
- Lachezar (1/5): - The host didn’t even wrote us back to say that he cannot host us and we had to search for a new place
- GIOVANNI (8/5): - Vicino a Vaticano e si raggiungono facilmente Foro Italico e Stadio olimpico. Ottima la colazione nel vicino bar. Il TV dopo 10 minuti si spegneva. Va detto che hanno cercato più volte di sistemarlo. Forti odori nella reception.
- LUIS (10/5): Convenient location, wonderful service - My stay was great, enjoyed every moment, thank you!
- Paolo (9/5): Camera essenziale in una zona comoda e tranquilla. Gestore molto cordiale - Struttura in zona Ottaviano a dieci minuti a piedi dalla metro. Bella zona con tanti ristoranti nelle vicinanze. Comodo anche per il bus per il Foro Italico o lo stadio Olimpico. Il gestore Alberto è molto gentile e cordiale e rispende sempre ad eventuali richieste. E' permesso lasciare i bagagli dopo il check out. Colazione disponibile in un bar pasticceria a 50 metri in direzione della metro. Camera essenziale con bagno molto molto piccolo. Per completezza, ho visto al momento di ritirare i bagagli che un'altra stanza era di dimensioni più grandi soprattutto il bagno.

- Salvo (10/5): - Camera spaziosa, ottima posizione vicino alla metro Ottaviano, host gentile e disponibile.
- Ste (10/5): - Staff gentilissimo e disponibile, posizione ottima.
- Silvia (2/5): - Der Herr am Empfang Es gab Defekte im Badezimmer, beim Duschen kaltes Wasser. Schmutzige Handtücher wurden wieder zusammengelegt und als frische präsentiert. Es war staubig, das Zimmer wurde nicht geputzt, das Bett nicht gemacht. Lediglich die Mülleimer wurden geleert. Frühstück gab es von der Unterkunft entfernt in einem Cafe. Das Zimmer war laut, befindet sich gegenüber eine Markthalle.
- Atiyah (8/5): - The location was good
Property was in a good clean condition
- Ionela (10/5): Minunat! - Totul minunat! Gazdă super prietenoasă, camera curată, utilată, gunoiul se lua și prosoapele se schimbă zilnic. Sigur o să revin!
- Buršová (10/5): -
- fabio (8/5): -
- Christian (6/5): Good price for value - The location is good and the rooms are spacious. There is heating, so it’s comfortable even in the colder months. Overall, it offers good value for money. Everything could have been cleaned a bit better. There was quite a lot of dirt under the main bed. The water filter was dirty. The room could do with a bit of a refurbishment. Nothing terribly bad, but not perfect either.
Could have been an 8
- Libia (10/5): -
- Abe74 (10/5): -
- Luca (8/5): - Pulita. Centrale. Stanza silenziosa. Staff gentilissimo Il bagno necessita di manutenzione alla rubinetteria, wc, scarichi (odore di fogna! Non é accettabile la scusa della “cloaca maxima” delle antiche fogne romane! Rifare bene gli impianti!!)
- Carolina (10/5): -
- Marion (10/5): Parfait - Très bon accueil Ras
- EVGENIA (10/5): - Great location, very close to the Vatican Museums. Alberto was friendly and helpful throughout the stay. The apartment was clean, well-organized, and comfortable. I would stay here again.
- federica (7/5): -
- Luiz Mendes (8/5): -
- Danilo (10/5): -
- Mimi Pauler (9/5): Kleine Unterkunft in der Nähe vom Vatican - Kleine private Unterkunft in der Nähe zum Vatican. Alle wichtigen Sehenswürdigkeiten sind gut zu Fuß erreichbar.
Schönes Stadtviertel mit einem super großen Markt für frische Sachen wie Gemüse, Fleisch, Fisch etc.
Alberto ist ein sehr netter Gastgeber und die Kommunikation hat wunderbar geklappt.
- Ralitsa (8/5): -
- toro (7/5): -
- angela viviana (9/5): - la posizione, comoda per la metropolitana e a due passi da città del vaticano. camera e bagno non sono grandi, ma c'è tutto quel che serve.

- Kadi (9/5): Really enjoyed our stay and would visit again. - The host was very friendly and helpful giving advice about where to go to eat, which transport to use etc. The location was very good for connections. Everything essential for comfortable stay was in the structure.
- András (8/5): - Szemben a piac, ahol minden van, mi szem szájnak ingere.
Közel van a Vatikán.
Szobába bekeszitett nescafé és vizforraló van.
- Victor (9/5): Buena opcion, sobre todo para Museos Vaticanos. - Buena ubicación para los Museos Vaticanos, y Fácil acceso al metro y bus. La habitación cómoda. La zona bastante oscura y poca actividad a la tarde/noche.
- Hubert (10/5): Fajny pokój - Lokalizacja super bardzo blisko Watykanu Zapach z łazienki był trochę nie przyjemny ale może to urok tego wiekowego budynku
- Janusz (8/5): - Bliskość Watykanu
- Wiesław (10/5): - Sympatyczny i pomocny gospodarz obiekt😁
- Catherine (8/5): Parfait - Chambre correcte propre et petites attentions pour notre confort logement très bien situé bus métro super marché restaurants à proximité et Vatican à 500 mètres parfait pour un séjours agréable. Gentillesse du propriétaire.
- Neli (10/5): -
- Mario (10/5): - Nuestra experiencia en este hotel ha sido muy buena. El hospedaje fue cómodo y agradable, superó nuestras expectativas. Queremos destacar especialmente al hombre que nos atendió, fue un verdadero encanto: amable, atento y siempre dispuesto a ayudar. Además, la zona es muy buena, tranquila y bien ubicada, ideal para disfrutar de la estancia. Sin duda, un lugar al que volveríamos y que recomendamos totalmente.
- Mariano Luis (10/5): -
- Raquel (8/5): Buena estadia en este hotel. - Ofreció un refrigerio ( bebida caliente y un.pan). Se.podia tomar durante el día. Se solicitó bolsitas de café para prepararlo, pero no fue posible la adquisición de éstas.
- Jose (3/5): Dont stay here!!! Worst host I ever seen - Near Vatican Museum, a market and local bus station - dirty toilets
- the host gave me a small soap and one roll of toilet paper for 6 days. If you need more you should text him. The host is a micro manager. It Is easy purchase your things in the market.
- the host is doing business near the Vatican but he can explain you what is happening in the Vatican, because he dont follow the church activities.
- the host will give you one bath towel, one hand towel and one floor mat for 6 days. Non reasonable policy, not make sense.
- the host will send you a mega list of policies the date before your arrival. You will not read this “book” of policies because you only want to enjoy your vacations
- the host will enter to your room on a daily basis, but he will not change at least the floor towel. After 3 days with a dirty floor mat I took a floor towel from the towels open closet at the entrance. The host accussed me of stealing a towel. The towel was in the room (over the the bed). Im 63 years, for first time someone accussed me of stealing something. See photo
- the host was so disrespecful just for a towel.
- I worked in the hospitality business. I did not believe the attitude of this host and after I claim him I was in Rome to enjoy, not to discuss about a towel or $5EU the host said “Im not in the hospitality business because you are not in a hotel. What!!!’
- the bathroom smell bad
- this property should be banned from Booking and related companies
- Dorina (10/5): -
- Matej (10/5): -
- Vlasios (8/5): -
- Aleks Castro (10/5): - La habitación estaba muy linda
- Katarzyna (9/5): Nic nadzwyczajnego, ale naprawdę przyjemnie - Śniadanie w formie kuponu do wykorzystania w kawiarni oddalonej o ok. 5 minut. Wliczone jakieś słodkie ciastko, np. croissant, i kawa lub sok ze świeżych pomarańczy. Pokój blisko ruchliwych ulic, ale w cichym miejscu, chociaż zawsze może się zdarzyć jakiś męczący samochód lub rozmawiający ludzie - okna nie są szczelne. Blisko do stacji metra (ok. 10 minut), więc wszędzie można dotrzeć bez problemu. Czysto. Pod domem targ - widać, że raczej dla miejscowych niż dla turystów, czyli kupicie to, co świeże i w przyzwoitej cenie.
- Debora (10/5): -
- Silvia (8/5): -
- MARIA SOLEDAD (5/5): CUMPLIDOR - BUENA UBICACION ESCALERAS
- Àngels (10/5): Genial calidad precio y ubicación - Súper limpio y Alberto es muy amable
- Anna (10/5): - Eccellente posizione, camera pulitissima, host gentilissimo. Tutto top!
- Sonia (10/5): Todo perfecto, únicamente que hace falta un poco mas de limpieza. - La temperatura de la habitación, la ubicación. El olor de las tuberías era fuerte, se iba porque ya te acostumbras. La limpieza de cada día no se hace, estiran la cama y poco más. Las toallas no huelen a limpio, no están sucias pero tienen un olor un tanto regular.
- George (9/5): -
- William (9/5): A recommander vivement - Bel emplacement proche du Vatican.
Chambre claire, bien amanagée et faite tous les jours.
Café croissant dans un bar exterieur.
- Angela (8/5): - Posizione
- Riccardo (8/5): - la gentilezza dello staff
- Riccardo (9/5): -
- Ruben Hergueta Reyes (10/5): - Limpio cómodo bien ubicado , todo correcto
- sergio (7/5): Tutto sommato gradevole - Rapporto qualità prezzo Una bottiglietta d’acqua nel frigo penso possa essere sostenibile.
- Neacsu (9/5): A fost un sejur foarte frumos. - Locatia a fost aproape de metrou ,5 min pe jos, aproape de Vatican, de restaurante, piata cu legume ,fructe,lactate si preparate din carne specialitati italienesti exact langa noi , magazine .Micul dejun inclus l-am servit la o cafenea la distanta de 2 minute si consta intr-o cafea , capuccino sau ceai si un croissant cu diverse umpluturi (ciocolata neagra sau alba ,vanilie , fistic) foarte gustoase si personal foarte amabil.Mi-a placut ca se facea curat in fiecare zi. Aerul conditionat care facea caldura era cam pretentios dar a fost ok pana la urma. Gazda a avut grija sa rezolve orice problema iar noi ne-am simtit bine.
- Josef (9/5): - Pěkný čistý pokoj, na pokoji rychlovarná konvice, káva a čaj, každý den nachystané kartičky na snídani v nedaleké kavárně, ochotný majitel se vším pomoci, naprosto skvělá lokalita, kousek od Vatikánu 5 minut chůze Trochu zápach na záchodě a sprše, ale protože je vše čisté a relativně nové, tak myslím že bude chyba někde jinde a majitel za to nemůže
- Aleš (7/5): - Bez site proti komárům. Trochu zápach na chodbě, ale uvnitř pokoje ne.
- Gabriella (10/5): -
- Nikola (10/5): -
- Gracia (8/5): - Tamaño de la habitación y la ubicación Aire acondicionado, no enfriaba mucho y era muy ruidoso, por lo demás todo genial.
- Kamil (10/5): Pokój jest świetna baza wypadowa na zwiedzanie Rzymu. Blisko metro i Watykan. - Świetnia lokalizacja, bardzo dobry kontakt z gospodarzem, czysty i przytulny pokój z łazienką. Brak
- Allan (8/5): - Beliggenheden.
Hjælpsom vært.
Italiensk morgenmad.
- Santa Anna (9/5): -
- Marko (10/5): -
- angelo pietro (8/5): Perfetto come posizione - Buona colazione e posizione ottima Dagli scarichi del servizio igienico sale cattivo odore che si propaga anche in camera da letto
- Paweł (9/5): -
- Angelo (8/5): Ottima zona, rapporto qualità prezzo ottimo, a 2 passi da metro Ottaviano e al Vaticano. - La colazione al bar in un bar a 200 mt. Bevanda calda e un cornetto vari gusti. Molto buono.
Il responsabile pur non potendo esserci quando c'eravamo è stato gentile disponibile e rapido in tutti i piccoli dettagli,
la ns partenza alle 6.00 am, il pagamento della tassa di soggiorno. Efficace e gentile. La caldaia un po' piccola e l'acqua nelle ore di punta può risultare tiepida, ma il responsabile si è adoperato subito e non ci sono stati problemi.
- Ramon (9/5): Estancia agradable y tranquila. - Situado muy cerca del Vaticano y muy cerca a unos 300 mts. de la estación de metro Ottaviano. También cerca de Supermercados y de un supermercado que abre 24 horas. La recepción fue sensacional, total ayuda y amabilidad.
- Pasqualino (6/5): Ottima posizione per la visita del Vaticano - Proprietario molto gentile e disponibile. Ottima la posizione, a due passi dalla basilica di San Pietro e dai musei Vaticani. Assente il bidet anche se presente nella descrizione della camera prenotata. L'odore di fogna purtroppo non era leggero come in descrizione ma veramente forte e spesso insopportabile.
- AMELIE (7/5): Très bon emplacement et rapport qualité / prix - La proximité du Vatican et de la basilique St Pierre est vraiment top ! Il faudrait revoir les équipements de la salle de bain.
La tige qui fixe le pommeau de douche ne tient pas, le sèche serviette pareil, les toilettes qui fuient ….
Le point noir de la chambre.
- Joacim (8/5): En underbar vecka i Rom - Vi gillade läget, hyfsat lugnt område.
Nära till många sevärdheter.
Servicen/supporten, hade vi några frågor om Rom så var det bara att skriva till Alberto på Whatsapp så hjälpte han oss direkt med tips och rekommendationer. Det var guld värt!!!
Det var lite charmigt att äta frukost på ett café på gatan bakom. Deras personal var också väldigt tillmötesgående.
- Philipp (8/5): Tolle Unterkunft in toller Lage - Die Unterkunft war einfach gehalten, aber uns hat es an nichts gefehlt und wir haben den Aufenthalt in Rom sehr genossen. Die Lage ist super und alles war sauber. Die Klimaanlage, die zu diesen hitzigen Temperaturen auch noch in der Nacht auf geringer Stufe notwendig war, war etwas laut zum Schlafen. Da wir beide aber sehr müde waren, stellte es kein wirkliches Problem dar.
- Irena (9/5): - Naproti ubytování je tržnice, kde si můžete koupit všechny místní dobroty. Je blízko Vatikánu a vše bylo pohodlné a čisté.
- Borja (7/5): -
- Bella (9/5): Very nice place - The room was very renovated and clean. The location is amazing as well - plenty of types of the transportation. The host was very kind, helped us with everything, even with a good suggestion about the district and Rome. Nothing
- Jorge (10/5): - Nos alojamos en este guesthouse en Roma y fue una experiencia excelente. La habitación era amplia, muy espaciosa y estaba impecablemente limpia. La ubicación es ideal: a pocos pasos del metro, lo que facilita moverse por la ciudad, y se puede llegar caminando en pocos minutos tanto a los Museos Vaticanos como a la Basílica de San Pedro. Sin duda, una opción muy cómoda y recomendable para visitar Roma.
- Oier (10/5): -
- Ana (10/5): Very good - Everything was good, Alberto was an amazing host, he was always available for any questions.
The room was large, it had enough space for three people. The location was also good, we were 10 min away from Vatican. 10/10 would recommend, and book again. :) Nothing, everything was good.
- Sarah (10/5): Exceptional -
- Robert (8/5): Unforgettable visit to Rome and Vatican with my wife and my daughter. - The bed was super comfortable. The location is very good - it is like 5 minutes by foot from Vatican Museums. 15 minutes by foot to the Vatican. Matro stations is 10 minutes away. Many good restaurants can be found nearby. Alberto (the owner) was very nice and helpful. We had very good contact with him via WhatsApp. If you want to check-in late then you need to send via WhatsApp skan of your ID and your Credit Card details, which is slightly concerning from the safety point of view. The apartment is not very big (and especially the shower cabin), but still it is good value for money.
- Valentina (8/5): 3 block from Vatican City - Proximity to the Vatican, train station, bar and coffee shops and even a mercato.
- Marta (8/5): Perfect stay near the Vatican! - Everything was excellent! The accommodation was very clean, comfortable, and ideally located—just a few minutes' walk from St. Peter's Square in the Vatican. The host was extremely kind and helpful. Communication was quick and easy. We especially enjoyed the breakfast at a lovely local café next door—delicious and a great way to start the day. We were very satisfied and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Rome!
- Vladislav (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tamara (9/5): Superb -
- Jiří (10/5): Exceptional - Close to the center, very nice staff
- Gemma (10/5): Lovely host and central location - Lovely and friendly host. Alberto made us feel so welcome and was very helpful with anything we needed during our stay. Loved the extra touches especially the breakfast vouchers which were for a local cafe only 4 mins walk away serving lovely pastries and coffee. Loved the water filter jug and fridge in the room too! Was so nice to have fresh cold water in the room when we wanted. I wish all hotel rooms had this as it was such a lovely touch. The bed was very comfy too and spacious.
Very close to the centre and only a 2 minute walk to the Vatican City. Wasn’t noisy at night either. Lots of nice restaurants and shops close by. Had a really peaceful nights sleep and a great stay! Nothing - all good!
- Gülşah (6/5): Pleasant - Location
Easy checkin Room too small.
No soap in the toilet.
Just one set of keys for three people.
