At find i was scared to book this property, however i when ahead because of the mixed reviews. I can say today that o had a amazingly great stay. It was a total surprise how clean the room was and the environment. Note, you have a shared kitchenette which included kettle, tea and coffee. The walls are paper thin so you can hear your neighbors at times. No elevator so you will have to carry your luggage up some stairs.

We made a reservation for two nights. Upon our arrival, we were unable to access the building due to a lack of communication regarding entry procedures, and there was no reception available after 8 PM. I had to request assistance from neighboring stalls to call for help, as I was coming from Canada and my eSIM only provided internet access. I am grateful to the staff of the nearby restaurant who kindly offered to contact the guesthouse staff on our behalf. When the staff member finally arrived, she informed us that the elevator was out of service, and we would need to carry our four large pieces of luggage up to the fifth floor. I had previously communicated the necessity of an elevator due to our large luggage, but she eventually explained that her mother had turned off the elevator because it was making noise. She then decided to turn it back on and assisted us with our luggage while we ascended the stairs in the sweltering 40-degree heat of Italy that day. The most disappointing aspect was that we were placed in a room where the air conditioning was not functioning, and we were not informed of this issue. There was a fan in the room, but it did not provide any relief. Consequently, we were unable to sleep at all that night. The following morning, we visited the reception office to lodge a complaint about the air conditioning, and the owner merely stated, "the elevator and air conditioning will be fixed today," without offering any apology. Very disappointing! Beware!

We had a great stay. Check in was quick and easy. Our room was clean and comfortable. The espresso machine that was available 24hours was amazing. Within a quick walk of the coliseum, and the metro station down the block puts all other tourist destinations within 30minutes. We were also able to store our luggage after checkout because we had an evening flight. They were kind and helpful, always asking if we had everything we needed. Definitely would stay again.

The place itself was wonderful to stay at. Lily was a very gracious host and we would definitely come back. A good amount of sites and restaurants are within walking distance. Just know that even though there is an elevator, you still have to go down a few stairs to get into the actual rooms. The area around the rooms is not perfectly scenic, but it's Rome and beautiful all the same!

It was tricky to find the location; it's in an apartment complex and you need to ring a bell (maybe a few times) before you talk to a person and get the codes for getting in. Once we found it, the room was lovely. It was a heatwave, but the a/c worked well. The staff was very friendly. Also, FYI, in all Italian hotels there is an extra tax to pay in cash once you are there and not covered on Expedia.

Stayed for 2 nights. Check in was easy and service was very friendly. For a “budget” hotel we found the room and security to be very sufficient. And the location next to the park and close to Termini was wonderful. Would stay here again if returning to Rome.

My husband and I stayed for 2 nights and we loved the area. Huge park view from our window. Very clean and comfortable. Karen and her mom were very helpful and sweet.Karen was very kind in helping us find a driver to Civitavecchia. Great little cafe on the corner and delicious pizza around the corner. Highly recommend. Thank you so much Karen !

Weird stay. It wasn’t filthy but it wasn’t the cleanest either. The location was sketchy, especially at night. Staff were nice. Just a very weird experience while we were there and we had to check out a couple hours earlier due to an incident the hotel was experiencing with the police. Close to the train station and a subway station. View from our room was very nice. If you’re comfortable with average this place is ok.
