Location location location!!!! It is less than one block to Vatican Museum.
Near by are multiple restaurants. If on budget, the dairy sedation of supermarket around the corner has enough choices @ very inexpensive prices. I bought 2 lemon chicken with mushrooms, which only costs less than 3.5 Euros. It would also be good options after one long day when not feeling to eat in the restaurant.
I stayed here by myself. My room was attractive & updated. Glad to have a window. Small refrig. WiFi. The bathroom was very nice. The stand alone shower was typical in a small space. Good water supply. I was very satisfied. Safe neighborhood for sure. A block to the Vatican Wall & entrance to Vatican museum. A great restaurant. Friendly bar. Gelato & breakfast place all with a few!! minutes walk.
Perfect location (2 mins to Vatican) (40 mins to Trevi Fontain by walk), metro in 5 mins, bus stops in a minute from the hotel. Clean and quiet. Many places to eat delicious food nearby. Recommend
The accommodation is very nice. Andrea is flexibel and friendly. He can give you tips about Rome. The accommodation is situated in an very cosy neighborhood in Rome near the Vatican. There are a lot of shops, bars and restaurants. With the public transport round the corner. Rome is at your feet. By a few tickets (100 minutes drive in public transport voor 1.50 euro) at the tabaco shop, kiosk or bar and do the rest walking through Rome. Use the app Romabus. You can find your way easy. Sort out how the app works at home with a map of Rome. that saves a lot of time. If you want to visit the big attractions book your tickets on internet. Then your sure to get acces. Be prepared for waiting time to come in. Rome is busy and they are not cleaning the streets and remove the garbage well. Lots of people are trying to sell you anything (especially tickets). If you can deal with that, Vativana Ottaviani is a good place to start and to rest with and on your trip. If you also book breakfast you get a good one (Italian way) at the bar at the corner with you voucher. At the day of leaving you can use the day en leave your luggage at the accommodation and pik it up later.
The shower in the appartement is not big. I (1.92 meter and 100 k) could not reach my feet bending. Tip for Andrea: remove the bidet and expand the shower.
Have a verry nice stay in Rome for a good price.
c'est parfait pour aller visiter le musée du Vatican. Également pour Rome, puisque à côté du métro. Sécuritaire. Très propre et la salle de bain moderne.

Excellent accueil mais confort à revoir
Excellent accueil, chambre idéalement située (au pied du musée du Vatican et donne sur une cours intérieure donc aucun bruit).
Bémols: matelas à ressorts donc mal de dos assuré au réveil, de plus nous n'avions qu'un seul rouleau de papier toilette et déjà entamé pour 2 personnes pour 2 nuits (un peu juste !), enfin il n'y avait plus de savon dans le distributeur de la douche, nous avons donc du le retirer et mélanger avec de l'eau...
non ho soggiornato perchè nonostante avessi prenotato non avevano la camera. Fortunatamente l'agenzia Hotel.com mi ha trovato un'altra sistemazione anche più confortevole, purtroppo il tempo perso per raccordare il B&B e l'agenzia oltre allo spostamento mi hanno fatto saltare tutti i pian della serata
B&B vicinissimo ai musei vaticani (solo una scalinata). I locali sono molto puliti e davvero arredati con gusto. La camera Cipria da noi utilizzata non è molto grande ma davvero accogliente. Il signor Andrea è una persona davvero gentile e disponibile e la posizione strategica del condominio hanno reso il ns soggiorno davvero "una piccola favola". Sicuramente lo consiglierei e, sicuramente, se torno a Roma andrò nuovamente in questa struttura. La metro è a circa 450 metri e la zona è servita di posti in cui mangiare a pranzo e cena. La colazione con cornetto e cappuccino viene servita in un locale bar di fronte alla struttura dove sia il personale che la scelta di prodotti è veramente piacevole. In sostanza solo commenti positivi.
