My husband and I stayed at B & B Leone (address Leone IV 99) in Rome (near the Vatican) and did not have a good experience.

The place was very small - so small that it was difficult to walk around the bed. There was really no breakfast. The family left some change for us to get breakfast at a bar downstairs. That really was not enough money for us to get anything other than a coffee.

The good thing is that they had a refrigerator in the room for us to leave any of our own food. But the place was so cramped tight that the only place to really sit was in bed. The 'counter' above the refrigerator was very small, made of just a small piece of wood nailed to the wall.

There was a shower and toilet in the room, but the sink counter was made of wood. Although it was clean, I imagine that wood will eventually rot from the wet sink. There was no place for us to put our things in the shower or on the counter.

The most disappointing thing was that the owners did not clean the room during the day while we were gone. They emptied the trash in the room only once in four days. The beds were not made for us. This B & B was much more like a hostel. The hostels we stayed at were actually more spacious with better service, better breakfasts than this one.

I think we paid more for the location than anything else - we were 4-5 blocks from the Vatican. It was, for this reason, quite pricey.

Lovely owner met us on arrival and gave her cell phone number in case we needed anything. She does not live on-site. Although named a B&B, no breakfast was actually served. This place had a small kitchen area with chairs and tv which was great as we traveled with another couple so each morning and night we would sit around the table and plan our activities. The owner dropped off rolls and croisants, left juice, cheese, milk, etc. in the fridge. There was also things we could borrow like umbrellas, hairdryers, etc. The location was great, just a couple blocks to the Vatican and a couple more to St Peter's. Lots of cafes, restaurants, shops, all around, and great gelato round the corner. The place was neat and clean although showers had little pressure and the beds were hard, but I found this to be the norm across Italy. Overall, for the price this was a great value.

As Trip Advisor did not have review on this location, here is mine! The Leone IV B&B is located 3 blks from the Sistine Chapel and Vatican. It took 5-10 minutes to walk there. Located in Prati (residential area) with alot of commerical buildings, this area is safe and convenient, the rooms were hugh! There is a small kitchen with small refrigerator, sink and stove. Its was the perfect place. Across the main street was an open Market, where you could buy fresh fruit, veggies, meat, cheese, fresh bread, water, sodas, clothing anything you might need. The proprietor - was on the premises near the rooms and they were very nice and helpful. The rooms were very clean and economical. I would strongly recommend this B&B - oh there is a great, great restaurant across the street "El Colibri" the food was excellent med price.
