Loved my stay here. It was literally a 3 minute walk to the colloseum. The host was very kind. He met us at 2330 because we booked late and drove from naples. He compromised with us on the late fee and I was very pleased by the interaction with he and his wife. He gave me a bunch of keys for all the cool doors in the 300 yr old building including the roof. Omg the roof was so amazing it only has two chairs and a table but great for a romantic picnic under the stars. I dont do reviews unless really terrible service or beyond amazing service. This place was great. You get a completely locked room from the other patrons who were also a very nice couple from Romania. Beautiful bathroom and bedroom private* and wonderful service. Espresso and cafe machine with hot water and a service elevator that fits one with big luggage. The neighborhood is so nice best b and b place I stayed on my ten day trip in italy. I own a b and b and strive to deliver the same impeccable service. 5 stars.
