Rather clean, cosy and convenient. A bit hot in summer (no conditioned) and noisy. The owners are very friendly and attentive, don't speak English at all, but were very eager to help us. Thank's!
The owner's reply
Thank you for the positive review, but I wanted to inform you that we put in every room ceiling paddle fans.

This was by far my favorite place that we stayed at in all of Italy. It was located about a 5-10 minute walk to the metro station making it easy to get to and around the city. It was a large and well decorated room and bathroom. The staff speak little English but are extremely nice and accommodating. Breakfast in the morning was also wonderful. It is the place to stay!

It was not a nice experience, this bed and breakfast is just a noisy bed, on a noisy street, in an appartement with a wooden glass door, very little intimacy. Not romantic. The breakfast was not nice and they didn't do the washing up for two days, we had to rince it in our sink to use them again. :-(

Nice, clean, friendly place with a really nice man (and his girlfriend) Diego. I would highly recommend this place to anybody who wants to see the real Rome and explore its fantastic food culture! Find the places around the area where the locals eat after 9 o clock- it will be obvious which ones the locals eat in... Also, ask Diego about the market. The hostel are really close to the subway. Walking distance to all the sights of Rome, if you consider walking distance around 30 min from everything. Would definatly return to this area! Don´t count on a steady, healthy breakfast unless you go out. But thank you Diego for your chocolate croissants, nasty but gooood...:)

Very close to Vatican and metro so good location for that. Bit of a walk to centre and to Trastevere, but can get a bus (62 is closest) to San Pietro and then a 5-10min walk. Only problem was no fan and room was very hot, so had to open the window but it was onto a busy road so traffic noise kept us awake! Maybe ask for a room at the back. Very clean. Diego was very helpful and accomodating and always contactable.
The owner's reply
Dear Anna, we have fans in every room. We usually use them in June .. if you had asked me I would give it!
I'm very sorry for this :-(
Hope to see you the next time to apologize..:-)

The room I stayed in was spacious for 1 person and offered a view of part of Saint Peter's dome. I practically had my own toilet and shower. The price and the location are good. The property is clean. The manager is friendly and washed my laundry once, free of charge. If you want a really good breakfast though, you're on you're own. Unfortunately, several weeks after my reservation the manager informed me three nights would be cancelled. I luckily managed to find reasonably priced accommodation elsewhere in Rome, but of course this was a hassle for me and I also had to spend a total of 40 euros for the cab I needed.

There is no board or sign on the building which tells where is the hotel, so even you reach the site you never know which the place you booked. That is what I disliked about most of the B&Bs in Italy. Is it a crime or is it because to avoid payment of tax?
The owner's reply
Dear Sachin, we are happy that you are liked our b&b and that have been well!
The name of the b&b "RomAnticaRoma" is written on the intercom of the building!
Any guest has ever had problems but if you had some questions you could speak to me when you were here, I would have explained you...
Naturally we are not criminal and we pay the taxes!!!
The Bed&Breakfasts in Italy are normal apartments inside residential buildings, they are not as the Hotels... and luckily also the price is very different......
The next time that you will have some doubt will be better if you ask an explanation before to write, it is not very beautiful to accuse in public some people of crime..............
Thanks
By The Most Criminals! ;-)
Varvara, Russia - Apr 12, 2011
This hotel is a really great place to stay. Close to the Vatican museum and the subway. Diego can answer all your questions with regards to how get where etc. There is a kitchen available if you are tired of eating pasta and pizza. Everything is really clean and nice. The only minus I could fine is a noise from the yard outside. But even that was not a problem for me since I was to tired not to sleep. Special thanks to Diego)
Arez, France - Mar 28, 2010
Very nice place, well situated close to the city of Vatican. Diego is very friendly and will help during your tour.Subway access is very simple, and a little supermarket discount will provide you basics for the week.
Isabel , Portugal - Nov 15, 2009
excellent place to stay (considering the price). cleen and very central. the appartment is confortable. only a remark. sheet sets and towels sould be white. will stay there again for sure.
Sabrina, Germany - Jun 22, 2009
We enjoyed our stay so much that we came back here for 2 nights in the end of our Italy-trip. Diego is a great guy, helping whenever something was needed, explaining where to go and in any case available via mobile. Breakfast is kinda typically italian, but with yoghurts, juice, coffe/ tea (whatever u wanna make yourself) and packed croissants. Location is great and close to the metro!!!

Antonella and Diego are perfect hosts. They are two hearty youths, very attentive with the guests.
Accommodation space is very quiet, clean and well care. It is only 5-minute walk to the Vatican Museum
