Vu le prix, on ne s'attendait pas à exceptionnel mais quand même. Si vous cherchez juste un lit correct, vous l'avez trouvé. Le titre annonce B&B mais n'y comptez pas, les petits-déjeuner ne sont pas compris, il s'agit d'un Bed&Bathroom d'après le réceptionniste (les lois italiennes ne régissant pas ce genre de location, ils font un peu ce qu'ils veulent). Pour le reste, la chambre est tout juste propre, la salle de bain poussiéreuse et sent l'humidité. Les fenêtres sont vieilles et ferment mal. Quand à la kitchenette qui à première vue corrige l'absence de petit-déjeuner, ne vous y trompez pas car si elle n'est pas décrite dans la réservation c'est parce qu'elle est inutilisable ! En avisant une machine à café et une bouilloire, nous avions fait nos courses en conséquence et bien mal nous en a pris : les machines doivent dater de Néron si l'on en croit le centimètre de calcaire qui accroche le fond (et je n'exagère rien). Merci pour l'eau chaude marron et les petits cailloux :) Pas de couverts, pas d'assiette, pas de torchon seulement 2 tasses à café et sans rien pour faire la vaisselle. Il y avait bien là un microonde (qui a sauvé la première partie de notre séjour) mais en plein milieu, il nous a été retiré sans explications et impossible de le récupérer ! Comme solution, ils nous proposent de faire 5 étages pour venir réchauffer nos plats... Ça pourrait être mille fois mieux avec peu de moyens, c'est vraiment dommage. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tina Nov 25, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort posizione formidabile, stanza carina e silenziosa, bagno buono ##### Tina Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Aug 9, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Molto pulito personale disponibile, camera silenziosa ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jul 1, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Super Unterkunft.

Excellent Location! These rooms are located in a prime location. Less than 2 blocks from the enterance of the Vatican and two blocks from the subway station. We also visited the Coloseum and it was super easy to get there from our room via the subway. Michael checked us in and was super helpful with directions, places to eat and other recommendations. Room was small but clean and suited us just fine. Good room for the money. ##### Stacy Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 10, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Mar 5, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 11, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hyvä b & b Pieni, siisti ja erittäin hiljainen majoituspaikka vanhassa talossa.

I arrived from the airport at 6.15am luckily someone buzzed me in as it was raining, I then sat on the office step until 8am when the office opened. On the big plus side as my room was empty they let me check in then with out any extra charges.
