We had an easy check in and the host was so helpful as it was raining. The rooms were clean comfortable and surprisingly larger than expected. There was a comfortable well stocked communal kitchen. No stairs to carry bags up. The only issue was access to host. Sent several messages and tried knocking on the door to advise early check out. We couldn’t ring with our overseas phone .

It took an hour to get our bags checked (slow long line at Air Canada), so that added stress. Oncc we got through that, it went very smooth through Security and Customs. We grabbed a delicious snack and headed to our gate to board - no issues.

TEMİZLİK ÇOK KÖTÜ

Oda pisti. Tozdan geçilmiyordu. Pis oda vermişler resmen. Yatak rahat değil. Otele giriş çıkış çok zor. Geç geleceğiz diye mesaj attık dönüş yapmadılar. Ulaştığımızda otele giremedik 1 saat uğraştık.

Not our favorite stay. The bathroom stunk like sewage and would make the whole room stink if you didn’t keep the door shut. The bed was hard as rocks, I’m not sure if it was even a mattress because it was so flat and firm. The towel I went to use for a shower had long hairs on it when it should have been clean. There were questionable stains on the throw pillow for the bed as well. Not the worst place in the world, but we won’t go back.

Las instalaciones están bien, a excepción de las almohadas que para nuestro gusto son muy blandas. Además, a la hora de la siesta (al haber un comedor en el pasillo y ser paredes muy finas) hay mucho ruido y te impide descansar.

MISLEADING DESCRIPTION AND POOR SERVICE.

I had to wait outside for an hour. No one let us in! It was a resident going in that finally let us into the property. The host was not so friendly. Finally it SHOULD NOT BE ADVERTISED AS A HOTEL, it is MISLEADING!

Struttura ben collegata con i principali mezzi di trasporto ed è nelle vicinanze di piazza San Pietro. Nelle immediate vicinanze ci sono negozi di ogni tipo, supermarket, bar e pasticcerie. La camera è ampia, con un letto grande e comodo e la pulizia è eccellente. C'è un minifrigo ed anche una macchinetta per il caffè in capsule. Caffè molto buono. Spazioso bagno interno alla camera, dotato di una bella doccia e bidet. Si vede che la manutenzione della camera e della struttura viene fatta regolarmente: è tutto molto ordinato e perfettamente funzionante. Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. Se proprio devo trovarci un difetto, il minifrigo è particolarmente rumoroso e di notte può essere un po' un problema riuscire a dormire. Invece per il resto è stato tutto molto soddisfacente.

It was ok, the staff that greeted us was terrible!! They advertise their kitchen as having snacks, they don’t, the faucets in the bathroom had rust on them. The zone is good since it has a taxi stop right by it, and a coffee shop called Ill Papagallo which was fantastic!!

The place isn’t an hotel, is just an apartment with a few bedrooms and the kitchen is shared by everyone. If you need to warm up your food or some milk for you or your children is no way because the place doesn’t have a microwave available just a kettle for hot water. But the place is okay for the price. The clean the floors and changed the bins bags every day and they changed our bed sheets after 3 days. The are is okay as well, is a few places where you can eat and supermarket. Is easily accessible to Vatican as well and you have a bus stop in front of the building. We like it and the staff was okay.

I enjoyed the place a lot !

Very clean, large bedrooms, well and nicely furnished. The location is not far from downtown: Piazza Venezia, Coliseum, Vatican, etc. (10-15 min. by bus). Free coffee, orange juice, etc. are available all day. Good internet. Above all, the personal is extremely nice and helpful & multi-multi lingual. Will give you good tips and can provide you with bus ticket, etc ...

L'hôtel est plutôt excentré du centre ville. Plusieurs stations de bus à proximité dont une juste en face de l'hôtel ainsi qu'une station de métro (ligne A) à 700m. Il est situé au 2ème étage d'une résidence. Le bâtiment est très propre. Établissement plutôt récent. Bon accueil. La réception est ouverte uniquement de 9h30 à 15h30 mais il est toujours possible d'avoir contact avec quelqu'un (numéro de contact de différentes personnes affichés sur un tableau). Très disponible et réactif. Les chambres sont plutôt grandes, très propre, fonctionnelle et possède une terrasse. Elle dispose également d'une climatisation ce qui nous a été indispensable pour notre visite au mois d'août. Les points qui pourraient être négatifs pour certains mais qui ne nous ont pas vraiment dérangé : la salle de bain est grande mais l'espace douche est un peu petit. L'hôtel se situe à côté d'un grand carrefour avec beaucoup de passage de voiture. Cela peut être un peu bruyant mais quand ont est vraiment fatigué de la journée, on n'y fait plus attention. Je recommande. Le Vatican city relais est vraiment très agréable et à un excellent rapport qualité-prix. Merci pour le séjour
