Stayed here for a couple days before leaving for our cruise. Check in was easy and attendant was helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. Location was just walking distance from St Peter Square, restaurants and public transportation. I'd stay here again if I return.
The accommodation is exactly as pictured. Easy to find and check in/out was a breeze. The guys on the front desk were very knowledgeable and helpful with any of our questions.
The location was great, walk-able to the Vatican, Piazza del Popolo, and Piazza Navona. The building and room was well maintained and the staff was very friendly. No complaint and highly recommend.
The rooms were clean and very comfortable. The staff at Flat 285 were fantastic. It is situated in a prime location, close to the Vatican. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Rome.
We had a wonderful stay! It was so close to St. Peter’s, we could hear the church service from our open window. The rooms were super clean, and the staff was excellent. The breakfast was amazing, and the gentlemen serving were so kind. We will definitely be back!
Hotel staff were fantastic and very helpful. Grecia, Front Desk, went out of her way to make us feel welcome and explained how to get around the area for sightseeing.
The flat was perfect for my family and I. Also loved the location. We were less than 10 mins away (walking distance) from the Vatican. The staff was nice and always responsive .
Highly recommend
Wonderful stay. Hotel was quiet and clean. Breakfast was good. We enjoyed the connecting rooms for our larger family of 5. The Prati area east of the Vatican was convenient and walkable to most sights. (we stayed for early morning tickets to Vatican and it was less than a 10 minute walk). Hotel was very accommodating. Loved the extra tall front door!

We enjoyed all the shopping and restaurants in the area. The staff were all very friendly and breakfast was yummy!
We did not like that despite many times letting staff know air conditioning was not working and being told it would be fixed, on day 3 at checkout, it had not been fixed even though we had been told it would be. Also, we had to manually turn the cold water valve on and off every time we needed water or the toilet would continuously run. We were told this at check in and that, “it was fine and to just do this.”
