“Can't say enough good things...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 September 2010

My husband and I spent our honeymoon at the Balduina, and Fabricio and Graziella are the most gracious hosts I have ever met! They greeted us by name, let us choose our room (one with a very nice private terrace), and Graziella's sightseeing help was beyond anything that we could have hoped for!

When we first arrived, we were invited onto the terrace for arrival drinks and relaxation. Graziella immediately pulled out the map and started marking everything - churches, sights, bus lines to take, where the subway stops were - her initial help was amazing. I think we will frame the map that she did for us, it was so helpful!!!!!!

Each morning, we were invited onto the terrace for a wonderful breakfast of various breads, fresh fruit, coffee and orange juice. We spent a few minutes reviewing our day and were wished safe travels.

The B & B is located in a very nice residential neighborhood, about 2 miles from the Vatican, right on a bus line to the Piazza Cavour, and a few hundred yards from a commuter rail stop. Graziella provided a set of keys for us to come and go as we pleased, and when we returned in the evening we were left to our own to relax if we wanted to. If not, we were again invited onto the terrace for a nightcap of Lemoncello!

We really cannot say enough good things about Fabricio and Graziella. They are exceptional hosts, with a beautiful B & B. We have found our home for the next time we are in Rome!

Thank you for an absolutely incredible trip!!!!

“A home away from home”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 February 2010

I recently traveled to Rome by myself to visit my daughter attending Loyola University in Rome and stayed at this delightful B&B. Graziella invited my daughter for breakfast each day and was hugely helpful to me as I tried to figure out how to get to all the places I wanted to go. She has an obvious passion for both Rome and for people and it was a pleasure to stay at this B&B.

“Delightful nook in the northwest”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 May 2009

Alla Balduina could hardly have been more perfect. It's tucked up in the northwest corner of the city, near the Balduina FR station and the Loyola Rome Center. It's a short bus ride to Vatican City and other bus lines.

The basics are covered- comfortable beds, immaculate rooms, and a clean bathroom equipped with bidet. What really sets the place apart is the lovely balcony, quiet and comfortable neighborhood, and superb hosts. For me, it was a lot like being at home!

I recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet, unassuming and reasonably priced room in Rome.

“Would go again, what a bargian+super friendly hosts”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 May 2007
1
person found this review helpful

I have stayed 5 wonderful days with Fabrizio and Graziella. They are excellent ambassadors for their city and they will tell you where to go, what to do and what to see. My single room was not big, but spotless with access to the terrass. The bathroom too was super clean, every day again. And most important, at night you cannot hear any noise. It is a small walk to the underground station or bus stop.
True, the ride is 15 to 20 minutes to the city center. But then
again, if you compare the price it is worth the walk and the little ride. Thanks again to my hosts and when I return to Rome I know where
to go. And I hope you too.
