This was the perfect place to stay in Rome. We are used to staying in 4* hotels when on city breaks but found it difficult to get booked in one for this weekend in Rome. We decided to try this bed and breakfast and were a little apprehensive since rooms were not ensuite. However, we need not have worried. There are 4 rooms in this apartment and 3 spotlessly clean bathrooms. We always had access to a bathroom and never had to wait.

Breakfast is self service in the morning and includes, croissant, toast, cereal, fruit juice. Someone comes in each morning at around 10am to clean up the kitchen and freshen up the whole apartment.

What we liked about here is that you are not in touristy Rome. The apartment is in a residential block and we enjoyed feeling like one of the locals. A metro stop is just around the corner and we could be at most of the important sights in less than 10 minutes.

The only reason this did not get an 'excellent' rating is that there were one or two little snags, a leaky sink (that was fixed straight away) and the shower hose attachment in one of the bathrooms kept coming off the wall (so you had to hold it). Other than that, we had a great time and would definitely go back.

This is clean, quite basic but great value place to stay in Rome and we highly recommend it.
