“Welcome to Rome!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 June 2011

Reservation made before hand expecting to pay 300 euros on arrival. Prior to arriving our credit card was charged 234 Euros. When I questioned (via email), they replied it was a discounted rate, and a bottle of wine would be waiting for us upon arrival. So expecting that since it was initiated by them I did not have 300 euros upon arrival. The proprietor Armando refused to let us in the room and demanded 300 euros. We told him we had paid $333. Cdn dollars to Domus Betti on our credit card but he did not believe us. This necessitated a long distance call(not from his phne though) to our credit card company (Master Card who were excellent), who provided transit numbers and transaction numbers. We provided them to Armando, who checked with his bank twice, as he said this was not how he did business. He eventually gave us the key to the room then demanded the remaining 66 euros. At this point after being up more than 24 hours we gave him the remainder. Aside from the silver fish in the bathroom the accomodation was adequate. Breakfast consisted of 2 cello wrapped pastries, juice and coffee. He also provided a fruit bowl, and before we left, a bottle of wine. Anyone can make mistakes but it was his intransigence, insisting we had not paid that put us off. He is either very confused, or a scoundrel. If you give your credit card number to him beware! Also the rooms are not ground floor and the photos on the web site are carefully staged.If you have lots of luggage or have trouble with stairslook elsewhere.

“Great find! Domus Betti is 2 blks from Vatican City w/shopping and restaurants”

people found this review helpful

We only stayeed three nights, but were very satisfied. Location is perfect just 2 blocks from Vatican City. Rooms are more than adequate if you don't spend much time there - clean, comfortable, secure. Breakfast is light and just what one needs before starting the day. We arranged a van to/from the airport - a bit pricy but a really good option, expecially if you are concerned about finding the hotel for the first time. We couldn't have been happier.

“Excellent location and very comfortable”

We stayed at Domus Betti during Sep-10 and we had an absolutely great time. The B&B is situated just a couple of blocks away from the Vatican and the nearest Metro station and it offers great value for money. The host was very friendly and helpful and although it was a little noisy in the street at times, it certainly didn’t take much away from the comfort of our stay. The rooms are large, comfortable and clean and the owner makes a great cappuccino! Would highly recommend.

“Perfectly fine.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 November 2010

This place is totally fine. We didn't spend much time in our room, of course, because we were busy with sightseeing, but it's a perfectly fine hotel. Our room had a very odd, but functional air conditioner, a separate bathroom (which is more than I can say for the hostel I stayed in in Florence), and a reasonably comfortable bed. We weren't required to pay cash, and the little old man who runs the place (who's adorable, by the way) was very sweet and helpful. The only thing I really disliked in the room was the light--horrible fluorescent, and it was the only choice. This is a bare-bones discount room, naturally, but it's nice enough.

“Armando Betti of The Domus Betti made it a joy to stay in Rome, I'll be Back”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2010

The service was great Armando Betti was most helpful in everything. It was like haveing a friend or family member in a foriegn country. This was my first ever trip out of the US so I had no clue about anything. He went out of his way to be helpful. The rooms were very clean and he brought breakfast to us every morning. Bring ear plugs, because of the tempature it was to warm to close the windows, and the street noise made it a little difficult for sleeping. The location was wonderful, just a few blocks from the Vatican and a few blocks from many wonderful places to eat and shop. the best gellatio ever was within walking distance. Not only was Armando very helpful, but he also has a great sense of humor, that made you feel very comfortable and at home. The rate for our stay was very reasonable, When I return to Rome I will stay at the Domus Betti....Thanks Armando!!!
