Nice but in hindsight, further out than i would have preferred (not ideal for the traveler that likes taking metros - rolling the suitcase along rough streets for several blocks is not the ideal). Room was clean, quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was adequate.

B&B St John's Villa is really well placed - close to key sights, various transport options and in a more low key residential area, so quiet. The rooms are a good size with a.c. and your own shower. The buffet breakfast was excellent with fruit, baked goods, yoghurt et al. The proprietor was very helpful and suggested less common options to try. There's some secure parking but you'll need to check when booking. Also, there are quite a few steps, so not so great for anyone with mobility issues or young children.

Unsafe and owner is rude.

We were treated so poorly when we tried to check in, to the point that the owner made us feel very unsafe. The lobby is the owner's living room and there are wires hanging out of the exterior of the building. There is a metal gate on a narrow street without any signage for the residence so it was difficult to find. However, we felt so unsafe by the owner that despite Hotels.com not doing much for us to assist us, we stayed at a hotel up the road for our stay in Rome and paid that hotel directly.

This is a nice place with a friendly and welcoming host, and onsite parking for a daily fee. Accommodation is on three floors, and no elevator - so be aware that you're going to have to carry your stuff upstairs. Breakfast was good, with some excellent bakeries, juice, and coffee or tea. Our room, on the top floor, was comfortable and had everything we needed. We had a rooftop terrace too, from which you could see the statuary on St John Lateran if you leaned out a bit! It's within walking distance to the Baths Of Caracalla, Forum, and Colosseum if you're of regular fitness, and only a couple of minutes to San Giovanni in Laterano. You can do the circuit round all of them, taking your time. There's a Metro starion (San Giovanni) about 5 minutes walk away, and plenty shops just around the corner. I've no hesitation in recommending.

The property was beautiful, our room had a balcony woth a great view and it was nice for relaxing at the end of the day. We took the metro to Vatican City very easily and, although the walk was long, we enjoyed walking to the Pantheon. The restaraunts were great and filled with locals during peak season (mid July), which isn't something we expected but was a happy surprise!

The property is in a great location. It is in walking distance to stores, restaurants, ATMs, etc. and is in a very safe neighborhood. The owner is extremely nice and helped me more than once with some problems I had. I will definitely come back and highly recommend this property.
