“Seedy place.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 October 2011

The lady that ran the place was super nice and we really liked her, BUT everything else was not so good. We were forced to stay here for our last night in rome because hotel maikol screwed up our reservations and sent us to this flea bag. Walls were paper thin, the beds were hard as a rock and the tv had about 300 arab channels and one english, took me twenty minutes to find that one. The area was scary and we were glad to get out of there.

“Bellisimo”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 July 2011

people found this review helpful

First time in Rome and this is a great launching point for discovering the city. Short walk to colosseum or 10 minute metro ride to Vatican etc. Staff very helpful although not on site. Wifi is fast and free and rooms are clean big enough and mine had a bathroom in it bigger than my one in the Hilton. Worth the money, enjoy Rome.

“Good B&B in very convenient location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 October 2010
1
person found this review helpful

The hotel is newly furnished, clean and very convenient to the city centre, 15 minutes walk from Colosseum and 20 minutes wal from Termini, very close to a underground station.
Excellent ration quality/price.
I would return here if I came again to Rome.

Pros:
- Convenient location;
- Quite safe area
- Great ration quality/price;
- Clean and newly furnished;
- Friendly staff;

Contras:
- Breakfast is just a capuccino and a croissant;
- There is no reception so arrival time has to be arranged;
- All the rooms have private toilet but two out of five have the toilets not in the same room (you have to cross the corridor)

“Good Value but please call them first”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 June 2009
1
person found this review helpful

Stayed for 3 nights. For what we paid for the room we were happy. I think there are 4 rooms. We had a very clean quad room which was Sam 2. The windows faced into the interior courtyard so no noise. We had AC, a small refrigerator, safe, and a private bathroom, but the tub had no shower curtain so had to be a bit acrobatic with the handheld shower while sitting in the tub. The location is very good. Its one block from the Marzoni Metro station so you can travel anywhere including to the airport on the metro. Lots of stores and cafes nearby. It's just west of the Colisseum which if you walk takes about 25 minutes. So not in the middle of everthing, but easy to get to stuff. There is NO staff on premises so you have to call right before you arrive. Takes the woman about 20 minutes to arrive in her car. I had my cabdriver call (the number is on the wall outside the door) because we had no cell phone, and she does not speak English. So after a 20 minute wait we were able to get in. The breakfast consists of a coupon you get to use in the cafe next door. They weren't the most pleasant people to be honest. The first day I got a cup of cappuchinno with no offer of anything else (and I did not know to ask). The second day a new person there did ask if I wanted to choose from the pastries and I got a pretty good croissant. Anyway, overall I'd say this is a good value, but I wouldn't count on breakfast when determining if the price is worth it for you.
