Where to start....! Description was totally misleading!! B&B is NOT close to anything! Approx. 15-20 min. by bus to downtown Rome (Trevi, Navonne, Spanish Steps, etc.) and not, by any stretch of the imagination, is it 5-10 min. walk or bus to Vatican as we were told! Metro is 10 min. walk. There is ONE restaurant nearby and 2 pizza places. Restaurant was our only saving grace, excellent (Caselli, I think). Neighborhood leaves much to be desired. My husband was nervous about walking the streets after dark so we were sure to be in our room by 9:00 PM. NO PHONE! Although we were told we could use the one in the mgr.'s room, it was far from convenient. Also, there are not 3 rooms! In fact, there were 4-5 (I think 5) with 2 baths to share. I was told, prior to booking, that were were 3 rooms and 2 baths. First night, no hot water but property mgr. told us someone turned it off. Funny how it went off as my son was taking his shower and never returned until the following morning necessitating 3 of us taking cold showers. Next night, no towels and no property mgr.! We were not informed that towels were changed every 3 days so we left them outside our room to be changed. Called owner at 10:00 PM and she contacted mgr. so we could have towels. Breakfast was self-serve but abundant (instant coffee) with sliced bread, croissants, tarts. juice boxes and yogurt. Drawback to this is that the table only fits 4 people! This means that you cannot eat breakfast until the prior group is done thereby preventing you from starting your day as you choose. Rooms were cleaned intermittently (every few days possibly). I agree that if the owner invested some money, it could be very nice. The old building iteself is beautiful with a 30s/40s-type elevator (lift). However, this would not change the neighborhood nor the commute. By the way, the trip from Termini (Rail station) to B&B was $70 E (charged per person and per piece of luggage) so it is definitely not easy to get to. I did check with several taxi drivers and was quoted similar rates.
