I was delighted by this place. First, it's almost directly across the street from the Vatican Museums entrance, which was very handy. You can walk to the Metro in five minutes or so. Second, the rooms was modern, clean, and comfortable. Third, the price is terrific.

When I arrived, a nun right out of central casting welcomed me at the desk. She spoke no English, and I speak no Italian. However, I had my printout of our email exchange arranging my stay, so we had no trouble working things out. She showed me the guest house, vending machines, TV room, and my room. Outside the guest house is a flower bed and some palm trees. It's really lovely looking.

The place is spotlessly clean, and my room had a private bath (with a small shower). As I said, there are vending machines in a common room to dispense coffee, water, and snacks. There are a few tables where you could bring take-out food to eat. No breakfast is served here.

When you check in, you're given a key to an outside gate and to your room. (This is not always common in Italian hotels, when you often have to leave the key at the front desk each time you leave). Here you can come and go on your own, though the house rules indicate a midnight curfew. There are other rules as well, though I didn't find them onerous.

My bed was comfortable, though I slept on my fleece jacket instead of the provided pillow because it was so thick. If you like big pillows, you'll be all set. The fixtures and furnishings were modern and well kept. Windows are double glazed, though I opened mine a bit at night. With the window closed, I found the room to be too quiet!

There's no Internet, though there are Internet cafes just a couple of minutes away. If you are looking for bargain lodgings in Rome, I can't imagine you'd do better than this. Sorry I didn't take more photos of my room and so forth -- I hadn't noticed there weren't any others posted here.
