We thought the bathroom was very small, but it did seem to work for us. We are used to B&B’s preparing breakfast. I didn’t like cleaning the dishes used by the other guests. The location is very convenient. It’s in walking distance to many of the places we wanted to see. There is no lack of terrific eateries in the immediate area. We were disappointed at having to wait outside, with our luggage, for an extended time period of time, when we arrived in order to check-in. All and all it was a pleasant stay.

Good location, and you get what you pay for, I guess! Checkout is by 9:30am and they charge you to store any bag for any amount of time! Is the early checkout to ensure cleanliness? I sure would hope so since I definitely missed out on that. It is an old building, yes, but I have stayed at places much older and for good price, but this felt seriously underwhelming. I hope conditions get better for the next guests!

Domus Ripetta was great. Our room was huge, bed comfortable, water in bathroom hot and loved having a table with chairs and a sofa. WiFi was good. We had the Suite with external bathroom. Not an issue. The bathroom was virtually right outside our room door and it was a good size. There is a lounge area to sit in but we didn’t use it as our room was spacious. Having the small kitchen to make tea and coffee was good too. The breakfast is basic and not to my taste but that is not a criticism. I am not a pastry person, however my partner is and he enjoyed it. The building has a lift which is so welcome when you have heavy cases. We traveled by public transport and caught a taxi from Termini. For our stay we used the Metro which was about a 5 minute walk away, Flaminio at Piazza del Popolo. Up that way there are options to use buses and a tram to get around. There are also plenty of dining options and we took our host’s advice and used the two she suggested. Very reasonable and both had delicious food. Our host’s communication prior to our arrival was excellent and she was available for any assistance needed during our stay. We would definitely recommend this property for short or extended stays. Loved it!

Excellent location. Ginevra was very accommodating, helpful and informative. Only complaints are the tiny sink in the bathroom that was difficult to use and a dog in the building that barked most of the first night we were there. Definitely would recommend for a few nights because of the comfort and location.

We stayed here for 3 nights in June 2023. The bed is very comfy. Ac worked great. Perfect location near the Piazza de Poppello. 15 min walk to Vatican, Trevi, and Spanish Steps.However, the locks were very annoying. It was an old skeleton key. Since the bathroom wasnt attached, we had to lock and unlock the door and bathroom door each time we used it. The host was very nice and had great communication. Overall 3/5 stars

Our family really enjoyed our stay at Domus Ripetta! The location was an easy walking distance to nearly every major tourist site in Rome, and was parallel to a big shopping street so there was easy access to food and shopping as well. The owner was very friendly and helpful in finding good spots to eat around the area. The only things worth noting that may make this not a good fit for some is that provided breakfast was light, and the private bathroom was not attached to the room. We didn't mind this though. :) I would definitely stay here again!

The person at the Airbnb is outstanding. They are in contact with the client weeks before the check in . And they send messages and if it’s necessary they call you to settle everything every detail. It’s a great place I fully recommend.

No frills but great for the price
Pros: Quiet place, everything is explained and then you are on your own, breakfast food always available, great price for a clean room, elevator, close to taxi stop, close to large city park and many tourist spots Cons: Keys are a little hard to use, elevator very small, your bathroom is down the hall (not connected to your room)

The host was great and very helpful when she gave us the instructions. When I booked the room I did not read the bathroom was outside of the room so it’s important to keep that in mind if you’re looking for privacy and convenience. Location is great and it was a great value for what we paid. We would recommend staying there.

Let me start by saying the owner was at the property at the agreed time and was delightful and that was the only time we saw her. I can not call this a B&B, you have a self serve espresso maker, a loaf of bread and jam, help your self and clean up after yourself, cleaning materials in kitchen were very old and dirty and I threw them out. My stay was 7 nights and only had the cleaning lady in our room once, not what I was expecting. The location was great for walking to all the sites in Rome. If you are just looking for a place to sleep this was okay but I have to comment on the people in the apartment below us were screaming and fighting all night long on multiple nights so not much sleep was had.

Aside from being a lovely B&B that was centrally located in the heart of Rome's major attractions our host really went the extra mile for us. After having my cell phone fall out of my pocket during a taxi ride our host allowed us to overcome the language barrier in tracking down my phone by calling all the major taxi companies on our behalf. We were able to recover both and expensive phone and all the vacation photos it contained 100% due to her efforts. There aren't enough stars I can give. Grazie mille!

Not what we expected but great location
We were expecting a B&B as the description portrays, however, what you’re actually booking is someone’s home to share with other guests & no staff presence. As entering the home, we were greeting with a pungent smell. It took us some time to place it but finally concluded it was coming from the kitchen. One of us thought it was expired milk while another thought it was the smell of the kitchen not having a good scrub down. The host did put out breakfast items: half a bag of cereal, a packaged pound cake, crackers, and coffee. We went through the cabinets (to find soap) when we noticed the dishes she sat out for us were dirty and saw there was in fact expired milk and other items like what she’d set out so we did not eat the breakfast. Not only was this an issue, but you’re required to pay a $54 cleaning fee; this place is the dirtiest place we have stayed in during our 19 day trip. The floors looked like they hadn’t been swept/mopped in quite some time. There was curly black hairs all over the bathroom (the tub, toilet, floor). We washed the toilet ourselves before using. Beds were fine but the blankets are duvets without a duvet cover which wouldn’t be an issue except, given the fact that the rest of the place was really dirty it left us to believe they’re probably not washed after each guest’s stay. Now, the host is very nice and gives you tons of helpful info. She was kind enough to allow us to leave our luggage the day we checked out until our flight. Location was great!

Domus Ripetta perfect for our Italian vacation
Truly a wonderful place to stay in Rome. Location is perfect. Able to walk to some sights, metro station & taxi stand are very close. Great restaurants in the neighborhood. Rooms are clean and comfortable with really cute art work on the walls. Kitchen is a shared space with everything provided for breakfast. The owner is so helpful in providing info on where to eat and how to get around. No complaints about anything during our 3 night stay.
