An Excellent Stay

An excellent stay at an excellent hotel, a 10-15 minute metro journey away from any site you would want to see in Rome, and even closer to the Vatican. Francesco is a wonderful host and took care of any needs / requests. He has great patience with any language barrier and provides a range of excellent and simple breakfast options each morning. The room and bathroom had the upmost hygiene and cleanliness and could not be faulted. All appliances such as the airconditioning and hair dryer worked perfectly with no issues, and I could not fault really anything about this stay - highly recommended!

Wunderschöne und ruhige Unterkunft

schöne kleine und schnuckelige Unterkunft, abseits er Touristenströme. Sie liegt direkt am Vatikan und auch zum öffentlichen Nahverkehr sehr gut zu erreichen. Rezeption ist sehr nett, hilfbereit und zuvorkommend. Alles in allem eine schöne Unterkunft, die ich jederzeit wieder besuchen würde.

Un house Relais meraviglioso. Immerso in un bellissimo giardino sul clivo vaticano. Le camere sono bellissime e arredate di gran gusto. Personale gentile e super disponibile, ci hanno dato tutte le info sul cosa visitare e dove mangiare. Dormire in questa villa vaticana è una buona alternativa al classico hotel. Ci torneremo presto

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Terrible location. Had to walk up or down 1.5 blocks of steps to reach it. Very difficult with luggage. There was no sound proofing; therefore, it was very noisy. Dogs barking as well as noise from other guests were always present. The mattress had springs which jabbed into you, making sleeping difficult. Overall, this property was not a hotel. It was a guesthouse.

FT, Manassas, VA

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Poor directions to the location ! As the property is located up a steep staircase this is a big problem. When checking out we used the property’s cab service as we were told they would help us with the luggage; the morning of departure we were given our receipt and a notice that “begged” us to meet the cab on the street. No help with baggage, There are easily 100 steps. A cab charges 45 euro for a ride; the hotel charged 60. Would appreciate transparency in the pricing; here is what a cab charges, this is what we charge, then honor your advertised services. There is no full time service desk, no frig, microwave, ice and a charge for breakfast.

Parking was expensive and a 15 minute walk. Lots of stairs to get to the property, so people that have any difficulties physically should not book this Absolutely no tolerance for late check in. Air conditioner did not work. It is relatively close to the Vatican and the metro Within waking distance

Great B&B near Vatican

It’s a very nice B&B near Vatican. Before I booked it I was worried about the stairs and car parking; but it was easy to reach, just few stairs, and there was a street car parking space, €4 per day. The villa has a very nice garden, the stuff was so kind and helpful. The walls between rooms were actually thin but it was still very quiet during our stay. It’s in a very good location to visit most of the touristic attractions. I would certainly stay there again.

Sådär

Ett helt okej hotell, är mer som ett b&b utan frukost. Receptionen är sällan bemannad, kommer du för incheckning efter 18.30 får du betala extra om ens möjligt. Mycket trappor att bära ditt bagage upp för, läget är inte super. Gatan utanför är rätt trist, går du upp för trapporna hamnar du utanför muren till Vatikanen och kan följa den för att komma in till stan. Men planerar du att gå överallt så är det rätt långt räknat på några dagar. Tar 45 min att ta sig in till centrum, finns självklart Metro relativt nära men ”when in rome” vill man ju se så mycket som möjligt till fots. Rummet var ok, väldigt litet. Väggarna var tunna och kändes inte så välbyggda då de konverterat en liten övervåning till flertalet rum. Finns en bubbelpool i trädgården, men den får du endast andvända några timmar under dagen, ej efter 18.30. Annars är trädgården mysig, samt receptions området, men vi spenderade ingen tid där så det spelade inte in så mycket på vår upplevelse. Det var mitt fjärde besök i rom och nästa gång bokar jag något b&b eller hotel närmare stan igen.

The Long Weekend

The only critizism we have is there should be a mini fridge in the bedroom & a water filling station to fill water bottles, the walk to the hotel is very step so the least that can be done is to have a standpipe close at hand to have a drink of wather.

Det kunne vært mer sentralt, følte vi måtte gå fryktelig lenge for å komme til andre severdigheter enn Vatikanet. Det var fryktelig lytt, så slitsomt når andre sto opp på natta for å rekke flyet. Boblekaret ute kunne vært bedre rengjort. Fristet ikke å bade der. God seng, fint rom, deilig med air condition.
