I warn everybody that Residenza Belli is a place where you can find yourself on the street before your holiday ends. I was asked to move to another place with an excuse that bathroom urgently needs to be repaired. When I came to pick my staf and be transfered to a place outside the centre near the highway I Found out that they are just moving another person into my room. It took another two hours of persuasion before they agreed to find, book and pay another place in Trastevere for me. I strongly not recomend to use this hotel. Besides that all their rooms look to a dark and ugly courtyard, they are expensive, impolite and crooked.

I just spent 3 nights there and it was pretty good as a clean and pretty comfortable place to sleep. I had been added late to a group and their hotel was full so I was placed here by the travel agent. I got a quiet double towards the backyard and ws quite pleased with it. A bit on the small side, just like the shower, but everything was very clean and the bathroom seemed almost brand new. Friendly service at the little "reception" and at the bar on the corner where you have you breakfast. But one small pastry and a cappuchino is on the small side for someone used to a bit more than what the Italians eat for breakfast. The last day, Sunday, I had to either walk further down to the end of the block to get breakfast since the bar was no open when I had to leave shortly after 8 am, or skip the meal. Free internet worked on an off. Small fridge in the room with beverages at fair prices.

My parents and I stayed in a triple for 5 consecutive days at this hotel. We also paid for a sixth day, as we travelled outside of Rome, and then came back at the end of the week, because our flight left from Rome. When we came back, our room was NOT available. They took across the street to another hotel, because they had overbooked like five rooms. This in a hotel with EIGHT rooms. NOT ACCEPTABLE.

The "hotel" is a hallway on the first floor of a residential building. The "reception area" is a computer and chair at the end of the hallway. Unfortunately, our room was next to the "reception area" so whenever people checked out at 6am, we would be woken up by all the talking. You can also hear all the doors opening and closing all night long. Hard to get a decent night's sleep.

We were there in the middle of summer, and they would refuse to turn on the AC. They would say that they (meaning the one lady who worked there that could only speak Italian) turn it on everyday at 5pm. But when we would come back in the evening at 7pm, no AC was on, and there was no staff to be found. That's right, the staff (lady who can't speak any language but Italian) would LEAVE the hotel. So if you got locked out or had an emergency at night, you are out of luck at Residenza Belli, because there are no phones in the room and absolutely zero staff to be found until the cleaning guy comes in the morning.

I would never stay here again nor recommend it to anybody else. The overbooking and the lack of service and amenities just makes the stay horrible.

The girls and me wanted a weekend in Rome to explore the sites and have fun but wanted somewhere cheap to stay (but also nice). Residenza Belli was cheap, clean and the staff are very friendly - perfect. A low point is that the sign for this place is really small, so when you have reached the point of giving up trying to find it, head into the bar next door! They will have your key if its late in the evening! High points, you are right in the heart with the locals, and as long as you dont mind walking and getting into the thick of it with the locals this is where to stay. Stay around the back streets for great local places to eat which is also cheap - The local wine is sold by the litre and is defo worth a try! Planning on going back again!
