The Place in Rome Guest House

👌ok okey

Building had no elevators and had to walk 54 steps to go to reach my room which was not the one I paid for and when I complained about it, he sent me to the one I was supposed to get. I requested an iron and the guy at the desk said they do not offer irons. It took forever to get hot water from the faucet. It was a bad experience.

The cleaning in the shower was very bad. The beds were in a very poor state- they were uncomfortable and not very hygienic. Even the walls were sticky.

If I could give a 0-star review, I would. The staff/owner of the place treated us COMPLETELY INAPPROPRIATELY and made us feel very uncomfortable and unsafe. We left after 1 night. We were three young women. We had to wait over 30 minutes to be let in when we arrived, and the owner was frustrated that we had arrived a bit earlier than the time we had told him. The check-in process took really long. He spoke to us very condescendingly and passive aggressively, and even made fun of our friend right in front of us. We were not given the room we had booked (we had booked a room with 3 beds, and he gave us a room with 2 beds). He kept claiming that they don’t even have rooms with 3 beds, even though my booking confirmation clearly showed that I had booked a room with 3 beds. The room was superficially clean: hair on the bedsheets and coffee mugs were dirty. The room had no sound insulation so we could hear everything in the lobby and the staff in the lobby could hear everything in our room. We had no privacy. The last straw was the next morning when the owner (an older man) unlocked our door and walked into our room while we were still in bed! I jumped up in a panic and sternly asked him what he was doing. Unapologetically, he just said he needed to ask us if we wanted room cleaning (which is NO EXCUSE for walking in). He did not apologize at all for walking into our room without consent. We spent the entire day finding another hotel that day.

James the B&B host is a warm, friendly, jovial person. Very nice guy. He offered us a triple room and a double room when our quadruple room is not available due to the authorities asking him to remove a bed from the quadruple room. His newly renovated shower room comprises rainforest shower! We went to Gelateria La Romana for the best and authentic gelato as recommended James on 2 nights. We also went to Ciro Pupetta, the delicious Maple restaurant as also recommended by James.

There is only 1 bed and bathroom is located the other place , so very inconvience.. originally over $400 room , and I got a disount, but I think It is not value with $400

Great place for staying in Rome city center. Safe area, clean apartment and close to a lot of restaurants and buses. Would totally stay again in the future

The gentleman at the front desk is amazing, we adored him. We had a last minute situation with the transportation strike and this place delivered. The area isn't bad but the because it is near the trains terminal and street markets happen there, the streets have more potholes than the average in Rome (which of course is not the fault of the property).

James was a fantastic and fun host. The apartment was wonderful, clean, modern and close to so much to see in Rome. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
