| My overall experience was a very positive one. We booked based on the other reviews and I was not disappointed. The room, for three people, was just what we needed for our stay in Rome, clean, modern with ensuite showerroom. Renata and her colleague were wonderful, friendly, helpful and caring to me and my daughters. We were allowed to keep our luggage in the room the day we were leaving as no one had booked it for that night. This was a wonderful help and enabled us to make the best use of our last day. One issue I had was the flat next door had a child who cried a lot and I found it disturbing. My adult children were not inconvenienced at all. Look for the fridge, I missed it!! Overall a very good experience. |

| Antinoo is good value for your dollar. The room is small, but you get to be close to the Vatican. The room is fine for what it is, plus there is free wi-fi, and the B&B 4manager is very nice and friendly. She went out of her way to print a map for me for where I had to stay next on a tour! Worth staying if you want good value for your dollar. |

| It was a lovely place to stay. Very near to the underground. Very clean and beautiful furniture. Good taste in the decoration. I will stay again if I go back to Rome. |

| I had read couple of reviews here before I chose Antinoo, so we were expecting a very nice, cosy b&b. And indeed, we were completely satisfied. Antinoo is walking distance from the Vatican, but walking back even from the centre of Rome didn't take more than 45 minutes. Renata, the landlady is very helpful, flexible. She actually prepared the nicest breakfast during our stay in Italy. Strongly recommended. |

| Antinoos is a great place. WE were a couple with a 18 month old baby and we really liked Antinoos because it was clean, comfortable, cozy, the people working there were great, breakfast was good, the location was close to a metro station and in walking distance to the Vatican. We would definetly stay there again. |

| Had a wonderful time staying at the Bed & Breakfast Antinoo! While the room was small, it was immaculate and cozy. Renata was welcoming, accommodating, and made great cappuccinos--the perfect hostess! You can beat this B&B for value and hospitality when staying in Rome! I recommend it highly! Can't wait to go back, thank you Renata! |

| Would definitely recommend to others. Very nice accommodation and excellent customer service: our arrival was delayed by transport problems; we phoned ahead and the owner was waiting for us after midnight. Breakfast a great selection of juice, tea/coffee, yoghurts and cakes. We asked in advance for gluten-free for 1 person and this was very well catered for. Less than 5 minutes walk from metro station. The only problem with one room was noisy neighbours one night. Very good value for money. |

| It was my first time I had a bed and breakfast in rome, and what a pleasure. My mother and me enjoyed the place and attention to detail so much that I will for sure choose it again next time. It is very quiet (for Rome) in a good area and very close to the metro. A good walker can walk to the center of the city, but the best thing is that it is so close to the Vatican and the Vatican museum. So it was only a short walk on wednesday to the popes general audience and we found very good places. I can only recommend the general audience. It is a lifetime experience. There are some nice eating places a very nice grocery and a supermarket close by. I must admit, that my matress was a bit aged, but that was not critical. Therefor Renata fed s with the nicest chocolate I ever had, cared for drinks and took care of every little detail. Our room was very warm and comfortable (wheather was cold and rainy). I must admit, that the italian breakfast, although the one served by Renata in the room is excellent, is not exactly my taste, as I do not like sweet cakes in the morning. American tourists may enjoy it and feel like home. So after the second brakfast I asked Renata if we could have bread or bagels instead next morning. My intention was to organize some cheese and ham next door. And guess what? After a short sigh and explanation about the typicality of italien breakfast, the next morning she did not only deliver cakes and breads, but cheese and ham too! :-) It was so wonderful with Renata, that I hope she will continue to run this place for a long time. You really feel like home in her place. It is not like staying in a hotel, it is like living in this marvelous city for a couple days. One thing I missed, but honestly in most hotels too, with TV in room and todays means of communication it would be nice, if some german, french, and english TV programs would be dialed in already. I found only italian stations. |

| The room was very clean and well furnished, and the bathroom facilities were first class. Renata was most helpful and served a very nice typical Italian breakfast in our room each morning. The metro was only a short walk away and the Vatican was only 5 minutes walk from the B&B. We found an excellent Chinese restaurant close to the Metro station (very cheap and excellent food). When i return to Rome i will most definitely stay at the B&B Antinoo. |

| This is a private apartment, conveniently located for the Vatican and the city centre at a reasonable price and well managed. Ideal for those not requiring hotel facilities. The owner is very nice and helpful. |

| Rate about common spaces is low because there isn't any common space. It's a b&b, very clean and comfortable, breakfast is served in the room. Very small but clean bathroom (not enough enlightened!). A little bit too much noisy because walls are very thin (you can basically hear whatever happens in the other rooms). However it is a good bargain for the quality vs price relationship. It is also very close to the metro station (but that line closes at 9pm...then you have to take a bus that stops a little further). I would have preferred being closest to centre city, but I can't say this b&b is really far (walking distance from the Vatican). I would suggest it to friends who want a cheap and comfortable solution. |

| il b&b è molto pulito e profuma di nuovo; la stanza non è grande e il bagno è molto piccolo; la colazione è abbondante ma servita in camera (non ci sono spazi comuni), è a piano terra ma la zona è silenziosa; la metropolitana è dietro l'angolo e il Vaticano a 1 km!! |

| It is a new B&B, actually a small hotel because every room has own douche/wc. It is situated near to the center (about 1o min from Barberini), in a pleasant neibourhood. |

| We had a great 4 night stay. This B&B is beautiful, quite neighborhood and very close to metro (2 min. walking distance to Cipro station) and 10 min. to Vatican. Renata was very helpful by providing valuable information regarding the area and getting around Rome. The breakfast was served in room and was delicious. Each morning was a different breakfast, beautifully prepared by Renata. Our room was pretty, nicely decorated and very clean – everything is new there. Hot summer days? - No problem – there is AC in the room, so you can get a good rest before the next day journey of Rome. There was also no time restriction of going out and coming back as the staff gave us the entrance key of the building. We enjoyed our stay so much we want to return again and we would recommend this B&B to anyone. |

| We stayed in Antinoo for 2 days. The service (the breakfast was fantastic and served at room) and the staff (super Renata) was excellent and our next stay in Rome will be in B&B Antinoo for sure. The B&B is very nice and it situated next to Metro A (Cipro-Musei Vaticani). Easy to find. Take the metro, Linea A, you are in 6-7 min to downtown (Piazza di Spagna) for shopping. About 3-4 minutes walk to the Vatican Museums and some minutes more to the St Peter's church. The room was clean and comfortable. Overall, good value for the price. |
