“great location, very comfortable”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 July 2007

La Dolce Vita B&B is very centrally located around the corner from the Trevi Fountain. It is quite large and being that there were six of us, two bathrooms and three bedrooms were wonderful! The flat was clean and comfortable; the kitchen small but it worked out fine. Mario is more than gracious and very accommodating. We had a problem with the washing machine and after telephoning during a holiday weekend, Mario was there the next evening. He made sure everything was in working condition for us. I would absolutely stay there again.

“Good Location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 June 2007

Stayed for 5 night during week stay in Tuscany for a wedding.
Not the easiest to find if driving about Lucca by car through the narrow street swith shoppers on your first day!!!!!!

Up a tenemanet 1st floor next to a lovely cafe, good prices/food.
Coupld on top floor phoned owners to gain access as we missed msg on front entrance door as it was open.

Only problem was expecting towels/linen to be changed on 4th day, really needed fresh towels, but it didn't happen. Would have got them if i phoned owner probably though

Little cafe downstairs is excellent, friendly owner, good food and prices.

Would visit again if onbudget....

“Perfect for Family Travel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2007

This suite was perfect for our family of 7. Traveling with 3 children and 2 seniors is not easy and this apartment and its owners are wonderful. The simple yet comfortable accommodations made our time in Rome feel like we were at home. 3/2 apartment in Rome in such a neat neighborhood was perfect for our family. Only a 5 minute walk to Trevi fountain, grocery store, and restaurants. Affordable and comfortable for large groups.The owners (Luca and Mario) are helpful and so pleasant to deal with also, they even arranged for a driver to take us straight to the apartment after a long trip! Enjoy Rome but use caution while sightseeing, pickpockets galore.

“Rome like the Romans”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 November 2006

people found this review helpful

My wife booked this flat directly online for myself and my mother then was able to also join us. We had three adults in the two bedroom, one bath flat which also has a small kitchenette and a dining room/sitting room. The flat is very convenient to the Colosseum, Piazza Venezia, Palatine and Fori Imperiali area.

We really enjoyed our stay. The flat is of course like everything else in the area - very old. It was also very comfortable and safe. We enjoyed living among local Romans and experiencing Rome like they do. Leonardo, the owner, was very helpful and oriented us to the area when we arrived.

If old world charm rather than modern hotel facilities are your prefered way to travel, I highly recommend this flat.

“A nice place and journey in Roma,”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 November 2006
2
people found this review helpful

We were there in September 06 for 15 days. A very nice and pleasant place. Just in the heart of Roma. Our flat was Via Baccina, close to the Forum.
We started with a friendly welcome from Leonardo (flowers on the table and fresh Italian wine in the fridge)
The flat is nice, spacious bedroom with useful cupboard. Every morning, as opening the shutters of the living room we can see the forum
Quiet place, very cosy and comfortable. The kitchen is rather small but actually, it is not the main goal of our trip and as you know we can find a lot of nice and cheap restaurants in Roma (an Italian life is outside). Easy to have a quick lunch before leaving…
Easy to share your journey, lan connection and free of charge phone to contact your family. This allow us to send pictures on a web site and share feelings with on line connection.
Just to help, you can find nice restaurants and small shop (with all needed) around, Via Dei Serpenti and Via Cavour (if needed, we can give you address).
Just a negative point, some trouble with the shower, of course we have water but not coming properly (but this will be better next time)
We lived there as in our home and this was a great pleasure.
This was our third trip in Roma, always with La Dolce Vita and always with the same pleasure and satisfaction.
We will post some pictures.
Thanks to Luca and Leonardo. We will come soon. Best regards.
