“lovely place, prices may vary”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 January 2011

Good things first: the place is very nice, recently renovated and tastefully furnished. The bathroom was spotless, the room large enough and definitely pleasant. It is very close to the Castro Pretorio metro station, which means that it takes you literally 10 minutes to reach the Colosseum - and anyway you are just a couple of bus stops away from Termini Railway Station. Having said this, I noticed that room prices vary quite considerably according to the period of the year. At the end of december it was 145 euros, while during the low season it is 80-90 euros, which, I think, is more adequate due to the fact that the area is quite far from the main attractions and if you are not too keen on taking the subway at night, your only options are either calling a taxi or facing a very poor choice of restaurants in an uninspiring area. So I certainly recommend this B&B,but do check the rates first: at 145 you can probably find excellent options closer to the city centre.

“Much better than expected, definitely recommend!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 August 2010

I was very anxious because there was no English review though its website is pretty good and give much information. The result was much better than expected. I was not used to the European houses and buildings, felt a little bit disorientation in locating the place at first time. It is located in the first (2nd in my country) floor of an apartment(flat?) building and only "B&B" is written on the bell plates. I hope they give more detail guidance for non-European visitors.

This is very near a metro station and less than 10 minutes walk from Termini station. If you bring heavy luggage, never take metro because you have to go through many many steps. Walking is the best choice.

During our stay, 2 of 3 days schedule began before the breakfast service time, but the host arranged we could get the meal at a nearby restaurant in the early morning, which was very satisfiable. Just across the road, there is a big supermarket you can buy some food and other necessities. Pizzeria on the same side with the B&B offered several kinds of excellent take-out pizza slices with low price. Of course, you can find more restaurants around Termini station.

The room was very clean, large and modern with sufficient amenities. We need no other except unstable Wi-Fi connection.
