We stayed at the F&F B&B for three nights. It is located north of the Vatican on the ninth story of a building. The B&B is located in a nice and safe area of town, very near restaurants and public transportation.

Our hosts immediately made us feel at home, and they took the time to give us a map and explain the best way to navigate Rome. They were available if we needed them, but also very unobtrusive and respectful of our privacy.

The room was very comfortable, nicely furnished and squeaky clean. Some of the nice touches included a balcony from which we could see St. Peter's, a towel warmer and a little TV.

Breakfast fit Italian standards and included cold cereal, toast, juice and coffee.

The B&B is NOT located in central Rome. However, it was very accessible by the metro and at least two major bus lines. We didn't have any problems getting around, and we enjoyed staying out of the central hub since it afforded us some peace and quiet.

This is a very nice and reasonably priced place to stay in Rome,
and I highly recommend it!

I stayed in F&F's B&B for almost a month in May/June 2005, and I have nothing but praise: the location was excellent (walking distance from the Metro), the room (actually, it was a small apartment) was perfect, and the owners were extremely nice and cooperative.

For over a decade I have been spending a month in Rome every spring, so I have quite a bit of experience in different hotels, B&B, and apartments, in locations all over Rome. Quite positively, this has been one of my best experiences!

I wish I could reserve it for my 2006 visit, but unfortunately, I have been late in my reservation request.

Note: This review refers to the B&B of Filomena and Francesca at 41 Via Tommaso Campanella, not the one in Via della Giuliana.

Situated only a short walk from the Vatican, Filomena e Francesca's B&B is an excellent base to see and explore the magical city of Rome. The apartment and bedrooms are immaculately clean. Our hosts were ideal, available when you have a question and discreet when you want your own space. Really great value for money.

We stayed at this b&b in sept. 05 and found the room ok. Breakfast was well below average for all the places we stayed in Italy during our month there. It was very hot and the a/c didnt work very well. The hosts were friendly enough but only to say hello. Not exactly what we experienced elsewhere in Italy. If you just want a place to sleep its great.

Beside the fact that the F&F was fresh, cleaned every day and we were served typical Italian breakfast, Filomina herself helped us a lot with all the bus lines, timetables and how and where to go. This helped us a lot to find the right places in an easy way.

You wont be dissapointed
