Great 2 day stay

It's not a hostel, more like a family run boutique hotel. It was exactly what we needed for 2 days in Rome. Great recommendations from our host. Comfortable, clean and convenient to Roma Termini. Would stay here again.

The room was close enough to walk everywhere two minutes from a square that offered streets in all directions with all the amenities you could ask for. The hosts were wonderful people and we enjoyed meeting them. We were running late on check in day but they were very patient and thorough with us and shared everything we needed to know. The room was great and cleaned every day. Thank you for a great experience. Jeff-Toronto

Nice place but watch out for stairs.

Great location near the Termini train station and a nice place to stay. However, there are 4 flights of stairs so you have to be in shape as it is a climb.

We were able to explore the historic sites and charming streets with ease. They provided us with a detailed map that included recommendations for nearby restaurants and cafes.

Recommended.

Stayed here for 4 nights in a twin room. The room was comfortable. Very clean. Beds made daily and towels changed. Good shower. Location excellent. The host was very friendly and helpful. Would not suit anyone with mobility problems as there are 3 flights of stairs. I would stay here again and I would recommend this property.
