The hotel is quite a bit of travel to city via train, I booked 4 nights after first day of travel I ask hotel owner if it would be possible to check out after day 2 so I could get room closet to city, I am disabled and way too much walking and catching 2 different trains to get near city ..she informed me that I would have to pay for the 2 nights if I checked out ,,my advice is if you have any issues with walking at all get room in city ,,, also the breakfast consist of toast, cereal and muffins same thing each day ,we had to call hotel owner on day 3 to get clean towels,my advice is to pay online because she only accepts cash at hotel...and there is no grills at hotel as the description says...on a good note beds are very comfortable ...

Dear guest, when you have mobility problems, it must be your responsibility to book a hotel in the historical center, in order to limit the use of public transport. We have also communicated before your arrival several times and you have never specified your problem. I gave you all the information on how to get to the hotel before you arrived, you knew you had to take the metro, you could cancel the reservation 24 hours before check-in and you didn't. Once the repayment terms have expired, you can't get it.

Cosy hotel with warm staff
We stayed at About B&B for 3 nights. Enrica was lovely and accommodating and incredibly helpful - offering many suggestions about the things to do in the area and helping us book taxis during the 10 November public transport strike. The place was overall very clean, cosy and comfortable, and the staff's hospitality made the hotel a joy to stay in. The only possible gripe is that it's a fair distance from the city centre (about 20 minutes by tram). This hotel is a great option for young travellers and couples looking for somewhere comfortable and no frills at a reasonable price.

Enjoyable, affordable stay in Rome
I would say this B&B is a great value trip to Rome if you were to stay for 4 nights or more. Easily accessible on the tram at around £1 a trip from Termini(although, never checked our tickets for whole time we were there) . The owner was helpful from the start, easy directions when you first arrive. You get given a map of how to get around with recommendations of local bars/restaurants, invaluable information. The room was a good size, nice shower and the use of the communal kitchen was handy. The breakfast was selfservice, there was always plenty of pastries, bread, jam etc to set you up for the day. If you like your holiday stays 'less touristy' and 'more local' then stay here.

Everything was fine except it was very far from all the places I wanted to see. Also, there was a cockroach but it was taken care of promptly. For the money, I was very happy.

Practical, Great for families/ elderly travellers.
I booked this place to stay with my parents who have some difficulty moving around but wanted to stay out of the busy city center and after reading reviews on expedia. Very happy with the booking, only a couple of stairs and the bathroom was easy to get around ! It was also only a 20 minute journey into the center of town. It was a little difficult to locate our taxi driver would not let us out of the car till he checked it out which was very nice of him. Breakfast was provided however due to some food intolerance's we picked up some things from the local supermarket and were able to cook up our breakfast as we liked. The proprietor was very helpful with directions and advice. It is a bit of a sanctuary away from the tourists of Rome. Definitely recommend eating at the cafe/restaurant Necci which is closeby we ate their twice it was so good ! Also remember to pay for b&b in cash !

One of our favorite!
Wow, we have travelled for 25 days in three countries and I can say that Enrica's B&B was one of our favorite place. Enrica is a lovely, smiley and generous person and she did many things to help us in our trip. The room are clean and upkeep and the Wi-Fi is good (something that was a problem in many hotels). The B&B is 5 minutes walking from the tram that will bring you downtown easily. Moreover, we really appreciated the neighborhood which was very interesting. The true Roma! Not the one selling by the tourist guides, but a typical Roma working class area. I recommand it especially to young travellers or people who are willing to live the true Roma. We really appreciated!

Слабая троечка
Апартаменты расположены близко к центру, добираться легко. В комнате сыро, пол цементный, покрашен краской, поэтому в номере некомфортно. Окна выходили на улицу, где расположен бар и кафе, всю ночь очень шумно. В нашем номере было две кровати, одна над другой. За счет этого номер казался более тесным. В ванной нет полочки, мыло приходится ставить на пол. Хозяйки на момент заселения не было,в апартаменты попали случайно. Жаль, что нет телефона отеля на сайте. Всё остальное: возможность приготовить простую еду на кухне, завтрак, всё хорошо.

Hostel urządzony bardzo klimatycznie. Duży plus za mój ulubiony materac (hovag z ikea) i okienko do łazienki które dodawało romantycznego nastroju. Kuchnia funkcjonalna i zadbana. Pomimo słabej pogody, moje serce skradło patio i ogródek! Jedyne minusy to mało ciekawa dzielnica (nie czułam się tam bezpiecznie)- przynajmniej było blisko ulicy z pełnej barów i restauracji, oraz (czego można było się spodziewać) biedne i przesłodzone śniadanie składające się z tostów z dżemem.

Nicht empfehlenswert
Ein sehr in die Jahre gekommenes Haus, von aussen nicht als B&B zu erkennen. Mini Küche, wo man sich Frühstück zurecht machen kann....aber nicht möchte. Ein ganz kleiner Frühstücksraum mit 2 Tischen und je 2 Stühlen. Fernseher defekt und Handtücher mit Rostflecken, überall im Bad blättert die Farbe ab. Innenhof war früher sicher sehr schön gestaltet, jetzt weniger einladend. Alles in allem: wir wurden noch nie SO von B&B enttäuscht.

Ok, ma decentrato.
Il b&b è piccolino ma carino; la stanza un po' stretta (nella mia stanza il letto era a castello per cui c'era poco spazio per muoversi); la ragazza che lo gestisce, enrica, è stata molto gentile e disponibile; la pecca maggiore è la zona, perchè si trova al pigneto, lontano quindi dal centro (anche se il pigneto, che non conoscevo, è rivelato carino) e non è servito dalla metro (c'è una fermata lì vicino che però non porta a termini) bensì dallo scomodo tram. In conclusione: carino ma poco comodo per chi vuole stare in centro.

Etwas abseits
Das B&B liegt ca. 30-40 Min. vom Zentrum weg, leider direkt nur vom Termini erreichbar, dh. von allen anderen Ecken muss man erst Metro Ri Termini nehmen und dann Bus oder Tram nehmen. Zu den Stoßzeiten ist Tram ok, Bus eine Katastrophe.

Nettes Appartement etwas außerhalb
Dank der Wegbeschreibung, die wir vorab per Mail bekommen haben, konnten wir das Hotel schnell finden. Wir wurden herzlich empfangen und uns wurde alles gezeigt. Die Küchenzeile steht zur Benutzung für alle Bewohner der insgesamt vier Zimmer. Das Frühstück ist inklusive aber man kann sich auch mal zum späteren Zeitpunkt einen Toast machen. Allerdings gibt es nur süße Sachen zum Frühstück. Wer lieber eine Scheibe Wurst oder Käse essen möchte, muss diese selbst einkaufen. Aber das ist sicherlich kein Problem. Zwei kleine Esstische sind im Wintergarten vorhanden und im Innenhof kann man ebenfalls noch sitzen. Ebenfalls im Wintergarten ist ein kleiner Schreibtisch mit Laptop vorhanden, der ebenfalls kostenlos genutzt werden kann. WLAN steht natürlich auch zur Verfügung. Das Zimmer war, wie auf den Bildern zu sehen, modern eingerichtet. Allerdings hatten wir das Zimmer, in dem insgesamt zwei Betten vorhanden waren. Das obere Bett war für meinen Geschmack etwas zu dicht an dem unteren Bett angebracht. Das war etwas komisch und man hatte immer Angst das man mit dem Kopf dagegen knallt. Durch die blanken Ziegelwände und die dunkelgraue Farbe an den Wänden wirkt das Zimmer sehr dunkel. Rund um das Hotel sind ein paar Möglichkeiten zum Essen gehen. Direkt an der Straßenbahnstation und auch in der Umgebung gibt es paar Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Von der Station Termini bis zur entsprechenden Station in Hotelnähe braucht man mit Straßenbahn ca. 20 Minuten. Alles in allem ein nettes Hotel.

Super Unterkunft für einen Städtetripp
Das B&B in Rome ist eine super Unterkunft für eine Städtereise! Wir waren 4 Nächte dort und haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Bereits vor Reiseantritt kontaktierte uns die Besitzerin per E-Mail und gab uns eine sehr ausführliche und hilfreiche Wegbeschreibung zum B&B, da dieses etwas außerhalb von Termini und den Hauptsehenswürdigkeiten in Rom liegt. MIt der Tram ist es aber in ca. 15 Minuten gut zu erreichen. Hier sollte man allerdings wissen, dass die Tram nicht die ganze Nach durch fährt und ein offizielles Taxi ca. 16 € ab Termini kostet. Für Partygäste also vielleicht nicht die richtige Unterkunft. Die Besitzerin ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit und spricht gut englisch. Ihre Restauranttipps waren super. Nirgendwo in der Stadt haben wir so gut und günstig gegessen wie in dem Viertel rund ums B&B, wo überwiegend Italiener essen gehen. Das Frühstück wird nicht als Buffet serviert. Stattdessen kann man sich jederzeit selbst bedienen. Es gibt Toast, Croissants, Kuchen, Marmelade, Honig, Müsli, Kaffee und Milch. Keine große Auswahl, mehr kann man bei dem Preis aber auch nicht erwarten (wir haben ca. 30 € pro Person und Nacht bezahlt). Dafür kann man aber noch selbst etwas zum Frühstück mitbringen (der nächstgelegene Supermarkt hat sogar Schwarzbrot und natürlich auch Wurst und Käse) und die Sachen im Kühlschrank im Zimmer aufbewahren. Die Zimmer sind einfach aber praktisch ausgestattet, Handtücher wurden jeden zweiten Tag, auf Wunsch auch öfter gewechselt.

Hemtrevligt
Hemtrevligt miljö, ägaren Enrica var jättetrevlig och hjälpsam. Kändes som att man var och hälsade på en vän snarare än att man bodde på hotell. Rummet var helt ok, enkelt men fräscht. Lite bökigt att ta sig in till stan med spårvagn, som alltid var full. Men området kändes lugnt och tryggt, och man får vad man betalar för. Kan rekommendera att bo här om man inte har något emot att åka med lokaltrafiken.

L' unica pecca è il casino coi trasporti ma con l'Enrica, la proprietaria, non abbiamo mai avuto problemi perche' ci spiegava tutti i passaggi da fare in strada, anzi in caso di bisogno potevamo chiamarla sul cellulare infatti e anche capitato. Bel weekand e le camere sono davvero "interessanti"......

Room: The rooms has a very modern interior. Comfortable beds, big shower, wardrobe, fridge, hair dryer and the wi-fi worked well. Nothing to complain about, except that we had A LOT of mold in our room. The air was damp and you could see that the mold had come through the paint in the bathroom and bedroom. The kitchen and garden was very nice, we had access to a laptop, and the breakfast was OK. Location: The B&B was located a bit outside the centre of Rome, we were 3 young girls that wanted to spend the most of our time in town, and we thought the distance was perfect! Close to tram, about 10 minutes ride. There was nice restaurants, a fruit shop, supermarket etc close to the B&B. Service: We stayed for 4 nights and our room was never cleaned, we never got our towels changed or anything. The owner was there only about 3 times during our stay, but she was extremely helpful and nice to us! We got her phone number and she was never far away if we needed help or advice!

Nous avons passé 4 nuits dans cet hôtel et nous étions comme des reines. La chambre est très clean, très calme, bien équipée et le principe de mise à disposition de la cuisine pour le matin et même pour les autres repas si besoin nous a très bien convenu. A savoir : la pizzeria juste à côté de l'hôtel est excellente et l'ambiance super. Une station de tram est en bas de la rue de l'hôtel : très pratique.

Uitstekend geschikt voor gezinnen met jonge kinder
De ontvangst was zeer gastvrij. In de ochtend een zelfbedienings ontbijt. Gebruik van de keuken was inclusief. Na een vermoeiende dag met het gezin een prettige voorziening. Lekker rustig je eigen maaltijd bereiden en daarna nog gezellig een spelletje spelen in de tuin of serre. Echt een aanrader voor een gezin met jonge kinderen die toch wel wat van de stad Rome willen zien. 20 minuten met de tram naar station Termini, daar vandaan kun je de metro nemen naar alle belangrijke bezienswaardigheden. Topper !
