This property is overrated, the rooms look good but the bathrooms are a NO NO, My 1st room the bathroom was horrible it smelled like you were inside a sewer, I opened the window but mosquitoes were coming in, the shower was super tiny, I am skinny and I could barely fit and the soap dispenser was broken. After three times telling the receptionist lady which was right next to my room’s door literally, she moved me to a different room. The 2nd room at first looked like I was in heaven compare to the first one but after I took the first shower and turned on the air conditioner everything changed, the bathroom has a very poor ventilation so the humidity stayed in the bathroom and room, even with a short shower you could see the water on the tiles and later on the water dripping from the tiles, there were mold on the ceiling and on some of the grout between the tiles, you could even smell the mold. The first night I turned on the A/C and went to sleep, the next day I woke up with a black dust all over the floor, the suitcases and the bed it was coming from the A/C vent. I told the front desk and they only cleaned it and every morning was the same dust but a little less. The humidity was so bad that after fixing my hair it was puffy in less than a minute. The good things are: it has a small fridge and they give you water everyday, they have Arnel he was amazing cleaning my room, close to the train, lots of restaurants around and you could walk to the Vatican. I wouldn’t stay again.

This property was too old, the bathroom was decent, closet was damaged and inside was dirty hungers not dusted off.and under the bed were plenty of dusk. No nobody around between 10pm till 10am. Hot water was unavailable last Thursday 11/29/23. No table to sit on. I highly don’t recommend this place. This is the worst Hotel ever I stayed on.

Dear Guest, we apologize for the hot water, our boiler was broken and as you know we fixed It the same day. Our reception Is open from 10am to 10pm as in our properly description, during the day time we had the pleasure to help you to get informations about your tours in Rome and outside Rome. The closer Is a renewed antique forniture that matchs with the hotel style designed by a famous italian architect. The rooms are cleaned every day. Following your request we changed the room because the room you booked doesnt have the tablet.

The location of the property is good, but the management of the property is terrible. We arrived at the property a bid late than we expected due to the long line at the airport to get a taxi. The manager left the office, there is no one to answer our repeated phone calls, and we were locked out and stranded on the street. We were lucky that the owner of the property was there and gave us keys, otherwise, we would have no there to stay that night.

Great 3 night stay!
We had 3 night stay and had a good time overall. We weren't expecting the room to be so small, but the hotel did list the sq ft during the booking process. The bathroom was the only issue we had in terms of cleanliness; shower head had hard water scaling, the paint was chipping on the trims, and the bath jets had paint or discoloration that made it seem like it wasn't hygienic to use the bath. The biggest pro of this hotel was the location! We were a brief 10-15 minute walk from the Vatican and 2 minute walk to the metro station entrance. The metro ride was easy to get to the other side of the river (colosseum, trevi fountain, spanish steps area). We found that our hotel area was less busy and filled with tourists than the other side of the river, we preferred it! Advice for those checking in soon- the hotel gives you sets of keys to enter the building, for the "apartment" side your room is in, your room, and for the lights in the room. The building itself is a mix of the hotel and residential apartments, but it's clearly marked which is which so there should be no confusion.

The Air Conditioning was incredible and well-appreciated throughout our hot stay as well as the complimentary bottled water in the mini-fridge. Being half a block away from the Ottoviano metro stop and in the middle of a walkable city center was also lovely. The bed was made well and the towels were replaced every day.

I originally had my travel agency book me at a different hotel. It as expensive and the bedding was really bad quality (sheets and bed) and the a/c broke and they just gave me a fan and were rude. So I immediately booked this property and got out of my old hotel. I was SO glad! This place is super cute boutique. Mattress was memory foam (not a 3in spring like that other “hotel” that felt like a mattress for a pull out bed, with bed sheets that felt as rough as a disposable face mask). This place was instead very very comfortable, convenient, well priced, and exceptionally well located! Staff is very friendly and professional. It’s super close to the Vatican, across the street is a convenience store for water and fresh fruit. Next door is a pharmacy, and it’s walking distance to some really great restaurants bars and the farmers market!!! It also gives you a vibe like you’re living there in an apartment. Which really enriches the experience to me. I would definitely recommend and stay here again!

This property is very close to Vatican City - maybe 4 blocks. Very convenient to everything. It is a bit confusing as the actual hotel begins on the 2nd floor of an apartment bldg. You need to take the lift up to meet the desk clerk. Very friendly and helpful staff. Clean and the taxi stand is down the street in the square. Great shopping and good restaurants nearby.

We stayed here for two nights.the location is great - pretty close to Vatican City, close to the metro and surrounded by outdoor cafes and restaurants. The staff was very helpful in arranging airport transportation for us. The room had high ceilings and looked out into a courtyard so was quiet. There was a small elevator to help us with our bag. The AC worked well. I would definitely stay here again if we return to Rome.

Great location, poor service
The room was comfortable and in a great location. However the lack of a receptionist really spoilt our stay - when another guest lost their key and rang the doorbell continuously for 20 minutes at 2am we were unable to contact them for help. It also took over 24 hours for them to resolve us having no hot water.

Adequate
The guest house was situated in a convenient spot for us. It certainly wasn’t ‘Luxury’ as stated in the title. The room was small, there was no tub as stated. The shower was a good size but there was a door missing, consequently the floor got wet. The flushing mechanism for the toilet was poor quality and kept coming away from the wall. There was no bidet. A glass shelf holding a large lamp was very insecure. There were limited sockets for charging phones and other electronic items. The room was overly hot. The bed was comfortable. All in all adequate.

Our stay was great, the staff was kind and helpful. Our room was a decent size and they cleaned it everyday! The location is great, it's walking distance to the Vatican and other popular places amongst tourists. For those not big fans of long walks, there's also bus and metro stop 1-4 mins walk from the guesthouse. Would definitely recommend :)

A little tough to get a hold of the property manager/ receptionist. we spent a lot of time waiting for them during our check in and check out which cut our time for touring. The room is decent, but the shower head was broken and shower door was inconvenient, water would always spill out. The location is okay, decent but pricey restaurants, fairly easily to get to major tourist attractions. Just little things to think about :)
