The host Paolo is truly a delight, I visit Rome 3 times a year and used to stay nearby but it was sold out, and I’m glad it was as I will always stay here now. Lovely rooms, very very clean, and the air con actually works

This was a unique place. It is incredibly well located to easy access for the Vatican, and a bus stop from the Airport. I agree though that it really is their house and they’ve split up the rooms to rent out. I don’t think the air conditioner worked though I had it going. It just never got remotely cool in there. I did like having my own bathroom but I thought the price was high considering. There’s no “front desk” so you kind of have to bother the owner with any questions…including coordinating check in.

The host was great. Very accommodating allowing us to leave our bags after check out until our train time. She gave good recommendations for areas to see. Room was clean and towels were replenished daily along with trash removal. Street is a little loud but it did not keep us from sleeping. Very convenient location to metro, shopping, and restaurants

Nice place to stay, quiet and safe location, just a 10-minute walk to the Vatican and 5 minutes to the subway. The staff were very helpful in addressing guests' needs. The interior is a bit plain; I would recommend hanging a couple of pictures to enhance the ambiance.

Good location. 5 minutes walk from Metro. You will get your own room with bathroom and share kitchen with two other rooms. You will have your own shelf in the refrigerator with drinks and in a pantry with packaged breakfast. Good room for the money. Con.: bed sheets and wall color outdated, Sparkling vine wasn't provided as it said in our room details.

Just stay away from this B&B

I stayed in this B&B for 3 days, communication and check-in was good. However, the air condition is a portable unit, it will not make the room cool. The worst is the bath room, it is dirty and hot water run out in 10 seconds every day. Complaint the hot water issue to Pablo who manage the property, he pretent suprise and promised to come and fix it, but never come back again. Just stay away from this B&B

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Poorly maintained & sanitary issues

This is a HOSTEL and not a hotel. You get a room in an apartment with other people. The room is overpriced for that. There was no hot water in the shower when we arrived. We had to ask to get it fixed. When I unfolded my bedsheets I found several hairs in them. The towels were more like sheets and not proper towels. We asked for new towels and were given hand towels. For the shared kitchen space the water was yellow when we tried to boil for tea. The property manager was very nice and receptive when we reached out to him with issues. The room advertised in the photo was not the room we were given. Ours did not have a balcony or view. We were also woken up by other guests who came in at 1 am and were drunk. With taxes and fees we spent $200 PER NIGHT for a room three people shared and not a good value even for Rome. Location was in a less crowded area of Rome which was nice. Overall would not recommend.

We enjoyed our stay at Arches. The location was great, just a short walk to the Metro or bus stop. Beds linen very clean, bathroom also very clean. Kitchen area ok. Stayed two adults and two teenagers in four-bed room, plenty of space. Paolo and Natalia (?) were very helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend Arches!

The room was small, not very clean and the overall experience was not so great. Our AC did not work two nights of the five nights we stayed. And although, they had come to fix it both time the next day, we had to spend the night in heat. The bathroom shower randomly stopped working for a while and the internet connection was terrible. We lost internet for a whole night and was only fixed after 24 hours. The apartment was also shared with other guests. We had our own private room and washroom though. Would not recommend.

O quarto e o banheiro são amplos e limpos, porém o travesseiro nada confortável. O café da manhã, na verdade, não é um café da manhã de verdade. Todos os dias, eles repõem alguns industrializados em uma gaveta que fica reservada para você na cozinha. Não exijo muito, mas não dava para comer. Usamos só o café expresso (2 cápsulas por dia para cada) e o leite (1 caixa pequena para os dois). Se você procura uma hospedagem com café da manhã, não aconselho. O check in é até as 20h, então se atente nisso, pois atrasamos no aeroporto e não parei de receber mensagens do anfitrião até a chegada na hospedagem me cobrando do horário.
