“Perfect location and very nice staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 September 2011

people found this review helpful

I stayed here a couple years ago and was just inspired to write a review. Look, this isn't a luxury hotel. There's no fancy lobby or swanky lounge area. It's just a nice, quiet, safe little home base while you're in Rome. HOWEVER, the staff is amazing. My first night there, I asked the girl behind the desk where i could buy a phone card and she actually went outside with me and walked me a block or so away to a store that sold phone cards. Throughout my stay, the staff was amazingly helpful with maps and suggestions. The free breakfast was more than adequate and there was computers set up for people to use for free, which was a really nice surprise. The hotel is in a sweet residential area near grocery stores and non-touristy restaurants, and very, very close to the metro station (one block if I remember correctly). Also in walking distance from the metro station that brings you to the airport, which was awesome. One less thing to worry about! All in all, I would definitely stay here again. Just remembered one more thing - they have a bookcase full of books for you to borrow! So cute! Really nice, friendly place.

“Buonarroti Home B&B DO NOT STAY HERE”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 July 2011

Buonarroti Home B&B was the worst hotel I stayed in while in Italy. My room fronted on the street and was very noisy. My air conditioning didn’t work the TV was small and the lift was awful. The wi-fi was not compatible with an Apple iPhone.
I used tripadvisor when picking this hotel; I must say the reviews are not a fair representation of the Hotel. This place is awful

“Wonderful Place to stay!”

I had the opportunity to stay here last April and it was fabulous. Silvio and his stay were great with assisting me when my flight was cancelled due to the Volcano in Iceland. They helped me in more ways that I could have ever expected.

The rooms were always clean, the breakfast was molto bene! I look forward to returning this coming September!

“Disappointed”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 October 2010

person found this review helpful

Where do I start? We spent 5 nights here. Our room faced the street so be sure and have your earplugs. We experienced the lights going out one morning (I was in the shower at the time and there was no window in the bathroom), the hot water ran out another morning, again while I was in the shower. The piece that holds the shower head was broken so you had to always be holding it. The hair dryer was a joke. It looked like a vaccum cleaner hose and barely blew air. The pillow was a brick and because they had put another bed in the room, the side table was at the foot of the bed. It really made the room tight. The only thing between me and the mattress was the thin sheet. The promised WIFI didn't work, however, they do have a computer in the hallway. The second time we turned the TV on for the BBC news, it wouldn't work. The employee at the desk said the light rain was interfering with the satellite reception. It never worked after that, even when the sun was shining. The air conditioner was not in good repair and we couldn't sleep with the window open because of the traffic noise. Someone who works there likes to burn incense. I was very disappointed. I took the advice of those on trip advisor and couldn't believe our luck with this place! Keep looking.

“Great Service and Location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 September 2010

person found this review helpful

We stayed here for two nights and the service was fantastic. The employees were very helpful, friendly and hardworking. The room was behind the front desk and was incredibly small. We couldn't open the door to the room and have the closet door open at the same time. The air conditioner worked for the most part, but kept shutting down in the middle of the night, so the room would get very warm very quickly. We opened the window that faced a courtyard (so it was quiet) but mosquitos would come in - so we had to rely mostly on the air conditioner. The bathroom was clean and large, the water pressure and temperature was good. The breakfast was decent and the coffee was delicious.They had free wifi which worked very well for us. Location was great, near the termini station, so it was a quick walk with luggage. A lot of nice restaurants and cafe's and a few good grocery stores in the area. They allowed us to keep our luggage there after check out while we did some more sightseeing before heading to the airport. All in all, the room suited our needs. Just a clean place to sleep and clean up while we spent the day touring beautiful Rome.
