For starters, this is NOT a hotel or a hostal, this is an apartment that has 4 doors/rooms and they all share a kitchen. To enter the building, this is an apartments building and there is no way to access unless you whatssap the staff, they are not fast at responding. If you travel with children make sure they don't change you city tax for the kids. There is absolutely no one to talk to there, it is quite literally a shared apartment with doors that lock. The beds only have sheets no covers, no blanket, no throws. We whassap the person and never heard back to get some blankets. We ended up covering ourselves with towels. Get ready for the AWFUL noise from the street that lasted until 4am. That is motorcycles speeding ambulances right at ear level. We actually contemplated leaving the apartment at 2am and head to the airport then. It was THAT bad. The room itself was nice besides not having blankets. But the logistics of accessing are absolutely stressful and atrocious. I can tell people grow frustration when they get there because there are signs everywhere to not ring tenant doorbells, and that the only way to communicate is whassap.

The place isn’t an hotel, is just an apartment with a few bedrooms and the kitchen is shared by everyone. If you need to warm up your food or some milk for you or your children is no way because the place doesn’t have a microwave available just a kettle for hot water. But the place is okay for the price. The clean the floors and changed the bins bags every day and they changed our bed sheets after 3 days. The are is okay as well, is a few places where you can eat and supermarket. Is easily accessible to Vatican as well and you have a bus stop in front of the building. We like it and the staff was okay.

It took an hour to get our bags checked (slow long line at Air Canada), so that added stress. Oncc we got through that, it went very smooth through Security and Customs. We grabbed a delicious snack and headed to our gate to board - no issues.

We had an easy check in and the host was so helpful as it was raining. The rooms were clean comfortable and surprisingly larger than expected. There was a comfortable well stocked communal kitchen. No stairs to carry bags up. The only issue was access to host. Sent several messages and tried knocking on the door to advise early check out. We couldn’t ring with our overseas phone .

I enjoyed the place a lot !

Very clean, large bedrooms, well and nicely furnished. The location is not far from downtown: Piazza Venezia, Coliseum, Vatican, etc. (10-15 min. by bus). Free coffee, orange juice, etc. are available all day. Good internet. Above all, the personal is extremely nice and helpful & multi-multi lingual. Will give you good tips and can provide you with bus ticket, etc ...

Contacting the host was a nightmare. We got there late afternoon and I attempted three numbers before I got a hold of the host. Host did not speak well english which is totally understandable but upon communication, she seemed agitated and frustrated. AC did not work. No microwave or stove top. Sheets and towels were not replaced. Limited supplies to soap and shampoo ,etc. I would say the location is conveniently located to Vatican and bus stops and other supermarkets. But, this comes with a down side of lots of noise.

It was ok, the staff that greeted us was terrible!! They advertise their kitchen as having snacks, they don’t, the faucets in the bathroom had rust on them. The zone is good since it has a taxi stop right by it, and a coffee shop called Ill Papagallo which was fantastic!!

MISLEADING DESCRIPTION AND POOR SERVICE.

I had to wait outside for an hour. No one let us in! It was a resident going in that finally let us into the property. The host was not so friendly. Finally it SHOULD NOT BE ADVERTISED AS A HOTEL, it is MISLEADING!

Not our favorite stay. The bathroom stunk like sewage and would make the whole room stink if you didn’t keep the door shut. The bed was hard as rocks, I’m not sure if it was even a mattress because it was so flat and firm. The towel I went to use for a shower had long hairs on it when it should have been clean. There were questionable stains on the throw pillow for the bed as well. Not the worst place in the world, but we won’t go back.
