Very inexpensive (around $80 a night for singes or $100 a night for doubles, etc.) and very safe feeling. I traveled there with a group from my university, but I would absolutely feel comfortable coming back here to stay by myself. The staff is so friendly here! The breakfast set-up was so great too (I'm still searching for a cup of coffee in the States that can compare to how good theirs was!) I loved how close I was to the Vatican and transportation. It's such a good home base and you can walk to Trastevere for dinner or there are some good little places to eat up the street too. Close to a couple little shops to buy necessities and things too. Really quiet on this street, which was especially good on New Years Eve. You feel far enough away from the craziness, but close enough to get to it all too. I really didn't care about the small bathrooms...considering it's Europe and my room had an actual shower with doors, I thought it was better than most. It was super neat and clean, so I was perfectly happy. I shall return!

Inexpensive hotel; satisfying breakfasts; smaller yet adequate rooms; great service; awesome location

If you want to be close the the Vatican, this is the place. It is very plain since it is run by the Trinitarians, so don't expect any luxuries but it is very comfortable and clean. The room had a good size.

I was the leader of a group of 25 Canadians in July 2011 and again I booked the Casa for our 8 day stay. Again, I was so impressed with the guesthouse and its staff. It is also so close to St Peter's and close to several restaurants and shops. The prices are ever so reasonable even with the exchange rate. The breakfast is included and it is not just a "continental" breakfast. There is fruit, several cereals, pastries, meats and cheese. The place remains spotlessly clean. The rooms are simple but comfortable. My group thought the Casa was excellent. Carmine and his staff are very friendly and understand English. They are incredibly helpful. As a tour leader I am impressed and will stay again with the Trinitiarian priests who operate the facility. So, group leaders contact the Casa and individuals or families...this place is best value.
