“What a pity!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 November 2011

person found this review helpful

Dommage! It could have been such a perfect place to stay but although Laura was lovely and helpful at first -hearsay as I only got to meet her on Sunday morning at 8.45am in my nighty coming of the bathroom- she was less than friendly when we left.

We stayed at her bed & breakfast -which is more a flat than a b&b hence the problems with her- for a weekend in November and as there was 9 of us travelling to Rome we were delighted to find some kind of appartment where we could all stay and have all commodities at hand. BUT the windows were not double glased meaning that it was next to impossible to have a good night sleep without ear plugs, breakfast was well presented and dished out onto separate shelves but no bread, nothing fresh, already opened marmalade single jar for 9 people, the chocolate powder box nearly empty, no fruit, no yogurt and stale biscuits.
We were reminded to leave at 10am on Sunday morning and Laura turned up on that morning at 8.45am, scared me when I found her in the b&b, coming out of the shower, started cleaning the minuscule kitchen where I was trying to prepare some kind of breakfast and putting things away everywhere in the flat but the bedrooms.

Finding it slightly weird that she didn't wait after we'd left I asked her whether as she was there we could have some marmalade and chocolate and she went out to do some grocery shopping coming back with said groceries and 4 people who were clearly her next guests.
Fair enough as we are in a Bbed& breakfast as she stressed it several times but as the b&b is laid out as a flat, we were all in our nighties in front of perfect strangers who didn't budge when we tried to squeeze through to the bathroom, used the said bathrooms etc etc and stayed there for a good 1/2 hour in our way when we were trying to speed things up to leave at 10am.

We told Laura that we found it unacceptable that she didn't say a word about people arriving that early in the more than crowded bbed & breakfast already. She would not listen to us reminding us that this was her property and that this was a bed & breakfast where we rent the rooms only and not a holiday house (she'd clearly used that argument before with other guests); other guests may arrive whenever they want and use kitchen/bathroom/computer etc. Needless to say that she refused point blank to let us leave our luggage til 12pm.

We had a wonderful time in Rome, fell in love with the city and its people that we met and were all so helpful and friendly. We even thought we could all come back and spend a whole week at Laura's bed & breaksfast but because of her attitude needless to say that this will not be the case ever again.

“Great B&B in good location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 October 2011

The B&B was welcoming, very clean and the host Laura was very friendly. There was lots of information on things to do in Rome and the facilities at the B&B were good. The building was lovely and added to the experience we had in Rome. The location was good with nice restaurants and shops in the local area. Would stay again!

“Brilliant B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 July 2011

Superb, tucked away B&B. The owner/manager Laura was very friendly and helpful, and the facalities are a real bargain. A bit tricky to find (best google map the address Via Collina 36) from the street as there is no sign outside, but its through the large imposing doors at #36, and buzz the intercom for entry.

You ned to let Laura know your time of arrival, and the B&B is a short walk from the rail station. It is a great base to plan your sightseeing trip from Rome from, and a first rate budget B&B.

1) breakfast facilities very good - make your own coffee provided) and snacks at any time, shared fridge, and washing machine!
2) good shower/ wash facilities (although shared with 3 other rooms)
3) Very nice rooms
4) Lots of tourist guides available
5) A computer and Internet connection is available, and free to use
6) A short walk from the railway station
7) great local restaurants

Cash only on arrival, but very good value, and Laura was so helpful.
Highly recommended
Ciao!

“Great Spot And Won't Break The Budget”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 January 2011

This place is perfect for Rome. I HATE spending LOTS of money in big cities, especially when you're only there to sleep. I'd rather spend my money seeing the sights, shopping & more importantly...eating and drinking.

Very close to Republica metro station. I would suggest learning how to use the Metro which is another story but worth your time.

Laura is AWESOME and will help you find your way around Rome which is considerable. Within short walking distance of Piazza di Spagna, Trevi Fountain & Via Veneto.

This is the only place I will stay at in Rome from now on..period. It suits my needs perfectly. It's a little tricky finding it the first time so do some Google earth, write all of the street names down and remember them when you're on Via Settembre XX because the streets around Via Collina are all winding around each other. When you get to Via Collina..there is no BIG SIGN saying L'Incanto di Roma. Go to the address and look for a HUGE 30 foot door. You'll have to ring the doorbell outside the door and then you'll see a little sign telling you you're there. Clean, adequate and for the money..I don't think you can beat it when you're in Rome.

Laura..Mi dispiace che non scrivo un messaggio qua più presto. Grazie per tutto della tua aiuta e spero di vederti la prossima volta. Ricardo di San Diego

“Excellent choice for budget travellers”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 April 2010

Arriving late at night was not a problem. A very warm welcome. An apartment turned into a B&B. Very clean and cosy feeling Even the shared bathroom didn't present a problem.
