We spent 3 nights with Luciano on our first trip to Italy, and starting in Rome. Needless to stay we were a bit disoriented to start, but Luciano made us feel completely at home, helped us with our plans (including making some reservations before we arrived), and personally guided us (through a down-pour no less) to the best place to buy our train tickets to Florence (no extra service charge). We looked forward to breakfast each day, when we could share our adventures and get new tips for that day. The location is great, as you can walk to most of the main attractions in Rome, or take the buses that are about a block away.

Luciano is a wonderful host (always smiling) and his B&B is in the perfect location for walking to ALL attractions and sites. His family have been in same house for 5 generations. Luciano & his wife are very helpful with local knowledge. Surrounded by restuarants, 5 minutes walk to Piaza Navone & 10 minutes walk to Vatican.
Location of this little B&B cannot be beaten.

B&B Luciano Pascucci is located on a perfect side street about a 10 minute walk from several great attractions in Rome, including Piazza Navona, the Parthenon, and Campo dei Fiori. Yet it is far enough from the attractions and on a small street so you feel totally removed from the crush of tourists in Rome. The architecture, woodwork, art and style of the building and apartment make you feel like you are living in 17th century Rome, it was terrific and unique place to stay. All of this combined with the price (less than half the price of most hotels in the area) make it a great value.

That said, it's not for everybody - you are the only guests inside what is essentially Luciano's apartment. You do have your own room and bathroom with locking door, but you are entering his home and at times it can feel a bit strange if you are used to hotels. Luciano is very friendly and helpful but also very talkative, so if you're the type that likes to keep to yourself keep that in mind. Overall, I highly recommend.

Luciano Pascucci, our host, is as a kind, knowledgeable, helpful father figure who makes sure we don't get pick-pocketed, who reserves tickets for us so we don't waste time in long lines, who saves us money and time buying train tickets, who negotiates reasonable taxi rates to the airport and who recommends inexpensive but great restaurants nearby!
The location is superb: Castel St'Angelo bridge and a view of St Peter's Dome just steps away! Buses (1 euro) are only a block and a half away and even 70-yr olds can walk downhill back to the B&B from any of the major Rome attractions except Via Appia and Ostia Antica!!!.
The room is small by North American standards but the bed is big enough for people like us used to King size. You have to keep slim if you want to fit into the shower. The bidet is a real treat as were the free map and all the reference books on Rome and Italy.
This was a great find!
