Very good location, Roberto was very helpful.
Marlet, USA - Jul 06, 2013
We could not have been happier with our stay. The owner and his staff were wonderful and their hospitality could not be rivaled. Location was fantastic too. If we ever return to Rome, we would stay again!

It might be a great idea to paint the place. It needs it desperately. Remember, there are no second chances to make a first impression. Your place is inexpensive but otherwise it lacks the charm of other places of your caliber

Very clean and the location wasn't bad. The owner was very helpful to my son and I. I definitely recommend.

Great position, clean, in a nice old building with high ceilings, and a helpful owner (directs/advises on what to do in Rome). The type of room I reserved was not available the first day, but he offered an alternative with a half price off. Works for us.
NORMAN, USA - Nov 21, 2009
DID NOT LIKE CHANGING LOCATIONS AT FIRST. THOUGHT THIS WAS EERIE. IT TURNED OUT TO BE AN EXCELLENT PLACE FOR US. CLOSE TO RESTAURANTS AND ACTIVITIES. WE LOVED IT. IT WAS CONVENIENT FOR US. WE ARE OLDER. WE RECOMMENDED IT TO PEOPLE WE MET WHILE IN ROME SO THEIR FRIENDS WOULD USE IT IN THE FUTURE.
Willem, Netherlands - Nov 11, 2009
The room was ok. nice and clean. The private toilet and bathroom are down the hallway and not private in your room. So you have to walk through a hallway to reach your toilet and bathroom. Considering the price it was OK.
Zuhdija, Australia - Jul 06, 2009
We stayed at Matisse for 3 nights.Great location,3-5 min walking distance to Colosseum, and 15 to 20 min to all other historical places.The breakfast was included,the room specious, and the owner Roberto very helpful.Highly recommended.

We had an excellent time in Rome and Matisse was a perfect choosise! Roberto was so helpful. He was wainting for us infront of the front door at midnight (our plane was late and we couldn't tell him). The room was perfect! We had a private bathroom. The kitchen was full with drinks and foods and you could eat what you find and anytime :-)We were in the center, everything was soooooo close :-) I can recomend to everyone!!!!

Ratings based on initial visit to Matisse's lobby. We cannot say enough wonderful things about this B&B. We will definitely stay here next visit to Rome.
Staff so accommodating, even after learning that reservation from hostelsclub never arrived and not expecting us nor air-conditioned room available. Manager carried our bags to 4-star hotel, had them give us reduced rate, invited us to use his Internet service free-of-charge, and provided tips for reasonable restaurants and fun, cheap things to do. That is service above and beyond!!!!!
Lara, USA - Aug 18, 2008
We really enjoyed our stay at the Matisse. Our host, Roberto was helpful and friendly. I used to live in Rome and I've been back there several times and haven't found any other accomodations that were that nice for such a low price.
Raymund Patrick, USA - Aug 18, 2008
The location can't be beat, very close to Termini station and the Metro line. The owner Michele was very accommodating.
Tobias, Brazil - Aug 14, 2008
It´s a good place! very good! the position is excelent! the bedroons are very clean and the breakfast is very good, and free, all day!! only 2 thing: there is not a microwave in the kitchen and there is not have a stove to cook some food... and the food is very expensive in the restaurants in Roma! And the staff could be better if they want to be first class!
Marcia, Canada - Apr 24, 2008
Great host who goes out of his way to make your stay as comfortable as possible.
Helen, New Zealand - Jun 26, 2007
Wonderful B&B, clean and just like home. A fabulous breakfast selection available 24hrs and air conditioning to boot - a definte two thumbs up.
Jianwei, Canada - May 23, 2007
The service met my expectation. Breakfast is free 24/7 and the best part is you get free internet access.
Michael, USA - Nov 22, 2006
We really liked this place. Quiet, friendly with a great owner. He was able to help us with whatever we needed. I definitely would stay here again on my next visit to Rome.
Hugo, Belgium - Oct 22, 2006
very good and kindly staff; only 1 of the 4 rooms had en suite bathrooms but the owner is going to make some changes.
Jennifer, Canada - Jun 25, 2006
We adored this place and Roberto, the guy who runs it! It is right on Via Nazionale and walking distance to loads of sights and central tour bus stops for those inclined. There are great shops and restaurants. Roberto sent us to a great little restaurant close to a neighborhood sound studio. "Sophia" and many celebs have enjoyed this spot for years, their pics were all over, we thought the food super and the atmosphere friendly and unpretentious. The rooms were neat as pins had A/C and private WCs in good order. The breakie had lots of choice and fresh fruit. He even grabbed the toaster from his own apartment for us!! You are right downtown so it does have a bit of noise including wandering acordian players BUT when we got tired of the street sounds we closed up the shutters and cranked up the A/C, couldn't hear a thing! Roberto is a gas and speaks perfect English and is out-of-his-way helpful. This was a super start to our trip. Book it, you will love it.
