Reviews
Lourdes from United States (10/10)
Comfortable beds, excellent location, easy access to metro and great restaurants close by.
Paul from United States (9/10)
Flat had plenty of space, was located steps from the Metro.
Andrej from Slovenia (10/10)
The apartment is spacious and located in a very good location. The building has both stairs and an elevator, making the apartment easily accessible for everyone. It’s well-equipped, and our stay was very enjoyable. The neighborhood also feels very safe.
Marco, the host, was also great, he’s very responsive and helped with everything we needed. We would definitely come again!Carlotta from Italy (10/10)
The apartment was very nice, had three bedrooms, a beautiful bathroom with great water pressure (so rare in Rome’s old buildings!), and a nice kitchenette with enough dishes and cookware to get by (since you want to eat out in Rome anyway!). Marco, the host, is very helpful and responsive!
Andrew from United Kingdom (9/10)
The location was excellent and Marco was a very attentive host. We visited in 38c heat wave and the aircon throughout the property was a lifesaver. Comfy beds, and good shower.
Wallee from United Kingdom (10/10)
Marco, our host, was excellent. He met us there to give us the keys and walked us through the property showing us how to use everything and all the facilities that were available. The property was very close to the Vatican and the metro. It was in the perfect location. If you like walking you can walk to all of the attractions, else you can use the metro which is a 2 minute walk away.
Yt from Mauritius (10/10)
The apartment is as in the photos which was already a great sign when we arrived. It is spacious, air conditioned and comfortable. There are works on the street in front, however the sound proofing is good and we could hear it only faintly.
Marco has been a great host from the moment we booked to during our day. He has been helpful when we had questions and needed recommendations.
And the location is excellent with the proximity to the Vatican city as well as the metro station which is 2 mins walk away.Hajnalka from Hungary (10/10)
Very large rooms, very comfortable beds. Good location, Vatican is 5 min away.
Katalin from Austria (10/10)
Everything was perfect. The flat was spacious and clean. The beds are really comfortable. Wonderful location,just 5 minutes from the Vatican, around the corner the metro station. Marco is a perfect host. He was always available and helped us if we had some questions. He organised our transfer from the airport too. We were really early but we could store our luggage. It was a wonderful stay,hope we can go back again. Grazie mille,Marco
Yangcheng from France (10/10)
The house has an excellent location—only 2 minutes' walk from the Ottaviano metro station. It is 8 minutes' walk from Vatican. There is a good pizza shop only 1 minute's walk from it, and there is a Jolibee fried chicken restaurant 2 minutes' from it. The host provided free luggage deposit both before check-in and after check-out, which is very nice. There are three bedrooms, all spacious and clean. The bathroom is also spacious. There is a balcony for smoking. The house is located on the 1st floor and there is no elevator.
