Clean, comfortable room with a bathroom outside of the bedroom. What I didn't really understand prior to staying there is that you are actually staying in Frank's house... the foyer is shared. Two of the doors lead to bedrooms that he rents out, one door leads to his apartment, and the last door is the shared bathroom. Its a cool,... More

Staying at Frank's house was more like being a guest in his home than being at a hotel or bnb. The room was spacious and warm. The ensuite bathroom was stylish and functional and Frank was friendly and helpful. The price for such a convenient location was a bargain. I highly recommend.

My friend and I stayed at Frank's House for 4 nights, it's the best B&B experience I have ever had. The loft is cozy and clean with a well-equipped kitchen. We requested a cooking course of Italian food from Frank and Soledad in one of the evenings. They are so kind and patient to teach us how to make carbonara... More

My wife and I stayed at Frank's House for 5 nights in April. Frank was great work work with to set up the stay. He arranged a car to pick us up at the airport, and return us for our flight home (totally worth it and highly recommended) and gave us a great overview of Rome when we arrived. Frank... More

I've stayed at Frank's House 3 times. Frank is a great host, always ready to offer advise on where to eat and what to see. The property is just a 5-10 minute walk from Termini station and 30 mins walk from other attractions.

We spent our last vacation in Rome, and decided to stay at Frank's House. Honestly, the place looks much better than in the website photos, and is very clean, comfortable and cozy. It is also very well located close to Termini Station and the subway, but we could still reach most of the major tourist points by walking because it... More

This was really a lovely little place with two incredible hosts. Frank and Soledad saw to all our needs, answered all our questions, and really just made our whole experience wonderful. The accommodation in the larger room was first class with very nice bedding and the bathroom was impeccably clean, not to mention that considering the prices in Rome this... More

My wife and I stayed at Frank's house (room #1 with private bath) for two nights. Franks was VERY easy to communicate with in making the arrangements. He had a friend of his meet us at the apt. when we first arrived, which was very helpful. The room is large enough, very clean and well appointed. Like a nice hotel... More

My cousin and I stayed at Frank's for four nights in January 2013. The off-season rate we got was phenomenal but we easily would have paid more. Frank's House is centrally located near Termini, but just far enough away to be in an actual neighborhood. The metro was a block away, which provided easy access to some sites, and the... More

We loved our stay at frank's house. The room was very clean, clean towels and very comfortable bathroom too. We had the one with a non ensuite but the batroom was right next to our room so had no problem whatsoever. The room was also nice and cosy with ac to warm up the room quickly. Considering the price, this... More
