“Home away from home”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 April 2011

I spent 3 nights at the CK B&B, which I found by chance after trying to find a place to stay during what seems to be a pretty busy season. I couldn't be happier: from now on, if I need a place to stay in Rome I will contact the CK first.

- Location: 10-15min walk from the Termini station. I personally enjoy walking and the location was excellent if I wanted to get anywhere. Otherwise there's a very convenient subway stop two blocks away.

- Home: if you're looking for 24hr room service and a luxurious vacation, there are plenty of 5-star hotels in Rome. If you're looking for a place where you can feel comfortable, not deal with 20 people asking if you need anything, and do your own thing, this is it. The CK really felt like home. I can't avoid mentioning the bed: it was SO comfortable with fluffy blankets. I hate hotels and their starched, stiffed sheets.

- Rooms: my room was definitely spacious, decorated in a Middle Eastern theme. There is a common area with a kitchenette, coffee pots, and basic breakfast foods. In short, there's always a cup of coffee or glass of juice available. Despite facing a busy street, I never heard anything more than the hum of a car and slept through the night wonderfully every time. It only took me a second to settle in and feel comfortable. There was a TV with a DVD player, and the bathroom has the basics without leaving you wanting more.

- Personnel: I was greeted by "N." who explained to me where everything was in the house, issued me a receipt (having a receipt issued by a family business in Italy is a huge sign of confidence), and gave me the keys. Funny story: I had a couple of huge hangovers after nights of drinking, and "A." (room service lady) was kind to just let me sleep through the day. No hassles at all, no nosy phone calls asking repeatedly if I'd like the room serviced. Wonderful.

- You will like it if: you're on a smaller budget. Great for a getaway for singles or couples. If you actually enjoy making yourself a cup of coffee in the morning (like myself).

- You want to look elsewhere if: you go on vacation because you want to seep at a hotel. I'm not sure I would recommend this place for families with children.

I truly hope they'll have a room available next time I'm in Rome.

“Dodgy, Dusty and Rude”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 April 2011
2
people found this review helpful

I'm sorry to say this but honestly this is probably the worse hotel I've been to. Firtsly, the owner switched me to CK when I booked for Aenea's. Instead of being in Termini, I'm in a location where there is nothing around. Nevermind about that. Even Google Map gave a wrong address for this BB. So, referring to the address from Google Map, we waited for an hour outside the wrong address and decided to call the owner. She shouted to us on the phone, and when we arrived at the right one, the receptionist didn't even greet us, rather fuss about us referring to the wrong address! Our bag fell, and she didn't even bother help us picking it up. The room was a little too fancy but that's not the issue - it's really dusty! The rugs and floors were not cleaned properly. There were even dust on the pillows and plates!!!! WHAT? There was nothing good about this BB considering I had to pay 80 Euro per night!

“Cheap and cheerful!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 October 2010

I stayed at the CK bed and breakfast for two nights and found the place to be fine. We had originally booked Aenea's b&b but as there was a problem with the bathroom upon arrival we were moved into CK's instead. Location was good for arriving and departing to Rome as it is fairly close to the Termini train station and terravision bus stop that takes you to the airport. It was about 15-20 min walk to the Colloseum which was fine but a bit far from some of the other attractions, but still within walking distance - wherever you stay you'll never be close to everything as the tourist attractions are pretty spread out in Rome. You can use the metro or buses but we opted to just stick to walking. The area of the b&b admitedly seemed a little scruffy but then a lot of Rome was scruffy looking- the whole city seems to suffer from graffiti and other man made nasties; shame really. However we felt perfectly safe at all times of the day and night in and around CK b&b. Once inside the building it was clean and well maintained. The room we stayed in (no. 1) was large enough, clean, comfortable, well furnished and well presented and the en suite served its purpose. Breakfast consisted of an offering of cereal's, toast, yoghurts, cakes, juices and coffee. All of which you prepare yourself which I actualy think worked well as you could eat as much/little as you want and as fast or slow as you want meaning you can get out and start sight seeing quickly. Sure there is no reception or staff as such but then this doesn't pretend to be a hotel; its a comfortable bedroom with breakfast provided. If you're looking to stay in Rome and don't want to pay the earth for a room that you'll hardly spend any time in as you're going to be out all day enjoying the city, then I'd highly recommend staying here.

“Fine for going back to and sleeping”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 October 2010

person found this review helpful

My husband and I spent 6 nights here in the Moroccan Room. We found the staff helpful and the room was fine for our needs. I agree with some of the comments here, but really think it depends on what you are looking for in accommodation. We wanted a place from where you could walk to the major sites, close to well-priced food and transport that we could go back to at the end of a long day and sleep. We got all of this. The breakfast was ok too.

The only real annoyance was the lack of consideration from other guests who were at times extremely noisy when arriving late at night, as well as the fact that the TV didn't work for one night, but this was fixed during our stay.

“bad area, no reception attendant”

overall not pleased with our stay. i agree with the prior reviews. the b&b was in a dodgey area that you wouldn't want to walk around in at night. the b&b is essentially a few rooms in a appartment building. there is no reception.. just a desk and a hallway with 3 or 4 rooms. overall we did not feel very secure in the building. the room decoration was nice.
