Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if travelling with an animal.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 20:00, which may be inconvenient for late arrivals.
  • Not a full-service hotel — This is a holiday home, not a hotel, so there's no 24-hour front desk or on-site restaurant. Breakfast is provided as items in the apartment, not a buffet.

“I stayed one night and received a warm welcome from the host. The location was quiet yet close to the centre of Rome, with all the main sights and the Vatican Museums within reach. I loved it and would recommend it to anyone.”

“Everything was perfectly fine; we spent one excellent night here. The atmosphere was quiet, and Gianna went above and beyond for us. The location was favourable in a fairly quiet area not far from the Vatican Museums as well as the Colosseum.”

“I had an amazing stay near the Vatican. The apartment was spotlessly clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated with special touches. Gianna was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond, even doing our laundry. The place was well stocked with breakfast items, and she accommodated our dietary needs, including vegan options for our daughter. The location was perfect—just a couple of minutes from the Vatican Museum, close to a supermarket and the metro. Highly recommended!”
