Leuke eettentjes om de hoek, geweldig. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 1 Dec 2019 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities Accueil chaleureux... et c'est tout. 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 25 Nov 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 9 Aug 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 1 Jul 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 11 Feb 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. Big Thumbs Up for that. ##### Mr Guiseppe Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elaine, Delft, The Netherlands 24 Aug 2017 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Location does matter It's a walking distance to all the places you want to see in the Vatican City and nearby. It's close to the Metro if you want to travel to the City Centre. Reasonably quiet and safe area. Friendly & helpful staff. They can arrange your airport transfers and tours if you ask in advance. Clean towels every day! ##### Elaine Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 10 Apr 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Perfekte Lage Das Hotel liegt direkt am Vatikan und in unmittelbarer Nähe zur Metro Station (obwohl theoretisch alles zu Fuß in der City zu erreichen ist, ist es manchmal schöner seinem Ziel mit der Metro näher kommen zu können) Es gibt diverse Essensmöglichkeiten und Minimarkets in direkter Nähe. Es war sehr sauber und alles wichtige war vorhanden. Einzig negativer Aspekt war die Hellhörigkeit der Räume, was sich jedoch nur auf den Flur (für 3 Zimmer) und die Leitungsgeräusche des Nachbarbads bezieht. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 10 Mar 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hervorragende Lage Sehr nettes Team! Schneller Check in! Das Zimmer bietet alles was man braucht. Der Preis war in Ordnung. Die Sauberkeit ist excellent. Die Lage ist sehr gut, die Innenstadt ist einer Viertelstunde zu Fuß zu erreichen, der Vatikan ist nur ein paar Gehminuten entfernt. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind in der Umgebung auch vorhanden. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Giacomo 30 Jan 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Room comfort #### vicino al vaticano zona sicura vicino al vaticano, buona pulizia buon personale però le camere avevano tutte qualche problema per esempio alcune volte non usciva l'acqua calda però tutto sommato lo consiglio per la sua ottima posizione ##### Giacomo ### 10/10 Excellent #### HECTOR RAMON 7 Nov 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Buena habitacion Al llegar, amablemente nos informaron que nuestra habitacion estaria a un par de calles de ahi.
