“Great B&B in Rome”

We stayed at San Jouan Guest House for 3 nights. I was a bit nervous from some of the previous reviews about the botched reservation system, but fortunately we had no problems. I kept emailing to double check that everything was set and to confirm our arrival time. It all worked out fine.

The B&B was excellent. The room and ensuite bathroom were spacious, especially for Rome, and were kept impeccably clean. The common areas inside and out in the courtyard were very pleasant. The staff was very helpful and friendly. We had breakfast coupons for a nearby bar which was also nice. The room had wireless internet access and also there was a PC in the lobby for use by the guests. The Sky satellite TV system was nice - it was the first time we got to enjoy some English-speaking TV and news programs during our stay in Italy. The free cold bottled water was a nice treat.

Location was not as central as I hoped, but it was only a 10-15 min walk to the Coloseum. It was close to several metro stations - the closest station was closed during our stay. Handy buses were also nearby to take you to many other parts of the city. Several restaurants nearby, recommended by Nestor at the B&B, were very good. Osteria Buoni Amici in particular was a great bargain and the staff was friendly and high-energy. Just be careful when they try to convince you to drink the Limoncello - that stuff is strong! :-)

Having stayed in Rome before I had braced myself for the worst staying in a small and not too expensive B&B - but was positively surprised. The hotel was one of the cleanest I have ever seen in Rome, the rooms were charming (and quiet) and staff was friendly, the free supply of water bottles an added bonus. Will happily stay there again - was very pleased overall

I come to Rome very often for business and I love to stay at SanJouan. The place is so charming and the atmosphere so nice and friendly that is difficult to choose another place to stay. Highly recommended!

booked the hotel and got confirmation
then went travelling and not able to access my emails
they email me (admittedly next day) - but i cannot get my emails to cancel the confirmed booking....then eventually 8 days later they phone me (they had my number all along) to tell me the day before i was due to travel to rome that my booking is cancelled - so i am left with no hotel - i give them 6 hours to get back to me with a new hotel - they get back to in 7 hours when i have already through the tourist office found a new (and more expensive ) place to say
so my advice is if you want to try this hotel - either phone them to confirm the booking or check you emails daily
