Having a common kitchen was convenient and the location is the best!
The rooms are typical European small but very clean. They only give you one pillow each could use two more pillows because they were kind of thin. But the food the restaurants around that area are amazing. And the best thing about this place is you are 10 steps from the Vatican. The location is awesome. We would definitely stay here again.
Location near Vatican was remarkable. We very easily got to all the sites and tours we wanted with a 20 minute or less walk. Room was very nice, bed was comfortable, and having room cleaned daily was also nice. Additional pillows would be nice for reading and relaxing in bed.
During my pilgrimage to the Vatican, I stayed there for a while.
The location was very convenient for me, though the property and facilities were quite simple and modest.
Yet in that simplicity, I found a sense of peace and gratitude — a reminder that true comfort comes from the Lord’s presence.
Great hotel, literally steps from the Vatican.
The breakfast included was simple, but it was available 24 hours which was a huge bonus, recovering from jet lag.
Very small but had everything we needed, especially in a great location!
Easy walk to Metro. Easy check in process.
Literally steps from St.Peter square. Conveniently located from restaurants and walking distance to Trevi Fountain and Pantheon.
Staff/host were very responsive to questions. Definitely would book here again in the future.
the best location a few steps and you’ll be @ St Peter ‘s square , very convenient if your shopping for souvenirs, I recommend to to go to Bogo Fidis store for rosary , has good quality products and reasonable price.The room are cleaned every day , breakfast is free and open anytime.Super convenient to all restaurants and walkable to metro.
Although this property is for the budget place in the heart of the Vatican area. If you are about simple accommodations, but located near great restaurants at the front door of St. Peters Square, this is your place.
BorgoNove was the perfect accommodation whilst visiting the Vatican City for a conference. The owners were quick to answer my many WhatsApp messages about transfers, irons and a lost necklace and they were warm and welcoming with their messages. The room was really big, bed was comfortable and it was really clean. I had almost everything I needed with the only exception being an iron and board, which is fair enough when on holiday, I was at a conference so it would have been helpful, but definitely not a deal breaker! The owners also told me this before I stayed so I could have brought my own if I really had felt the need. I could not get the coffee machine to work either, but I did hear other people using it so I presume it was just my own incapability! Maybe some simple instructions would be good for those of us that cannot function without coffee in a morning :) I would highly recommend BorgoNove and would love to stay again should I get the opportunity to visit Rome again as it was really easy to get into the city centre.
What a delightful surprise in Vatican City! I loved the location and ease while staying. Unbelievably quiet, especially at night. The host readily responded to any question or request, they were very helpful. Our room was spacious, the sink separate from the shower and toilet. The whole guesthouse is recently renovated. We enjoyed our stay there and look forward to returning!

The place and location is very good. Great access to train and bus.
We stayed for 5 nites, the whole time we were there we had a problem with hot water. The staff tried to be helpful and gave us further instructions what to do but I finally gave up. They said they fixed the hot water but the water pressure was too low that the hot water runs out beer you finish showering. Don’t really know what is going on even though they try to explain the reason. Also, I can smell sewage after running the water for a long time to access the hot water.
I addressed both issues during my stay.

Property is located in a very convenient area, the rooms are small, bathroom is pretty small, the sink is outside of it.
Main advantage is location and the self-service breakfast is decent. Everything else is a compromise but for us it made sense and it worked.
Rooms were clean and nicely appointed. Very near thee Vatican Museum and Sistine Chapel. Our stay was in August when it is very humid, and AC only works when you have your key inserted so it took quite awhile for the room to cool down. Breakfast is self serve snacks. Check in was easy.
A safety handle would be ideal inside the shower.
Our wardrobe (room # 23) was Soo tall that it was hard to reach the clothes hangers.
Complementary breakfast was very nice and well supplied.
Housekeeper is a nice and helpful woman
The second floor is a walkup, no elevator. The room had a small over the door air conditioner. It was clean, cute and very conveniently located to the Vatican and the hop-on-hop off bus stop.
The room was okay, a bit small for two people. Room number 25 they only served cereal and package bread for breakfast which was included. The area was pleasant and ample places to eat and dine. We were within walking distance to everything we wanted to see. Ie: Trevi fountain, Vatican, coliseum, and the steps. All in all was a good couple of days spent in Roma. One thing though I found Rome very dirty.
