| As you know the main complaint we had about your place was the steps because of our handicapped people, Patricia and Lynn. Otherwise it was very enjoyable, great location etc.And, we appreciated your hospitality. Some eggs instead of all that pastry would be nice as well. |

| If you want to stay in Rome, this is the place. Its straight opposite the vatican museum and is a short distance from most major attractions. The owners Rudy and Claudia are unbelievebly hospitable and take personl care about your stay in Rome. If I go back to rome, this is the place i will stay!!! 5 stars!!! |

| Rudi and Claudia were wonderfully welcoming and this is the most perfect location for the Vatican City. However, the room was absolutely baking hot (in August) and they do not have air conditioning. There was a room fan but it was not powerful enough to cool things down. At one point, I opened the door to the outside to try and get some fresher cooler air and Claudia told me I had to keep it closed. The breakfast was disappointing, pre-packaged danishes and some bread and jam and yoghurt but nothing fresh. However, the location can't be beat. |

| Very helpful and open English-speaking staff who provided us full information about visit to Rome (public transport, recommended cheap restaurants, supermarkets). Book - guides to Rome accesible. B&B near to the Vatican Museum (about 100 m, ideal location) and Basilica of S. Pietro. |

| Me and my husband used this B&B place for our first trip to Italy. We enjoyed the stay and the owners are very nice. I think the property is great value for the money. It is located near a metro station. We didn't have a car on our trip and it was helpful to be near public transportation. The entrance to the B&B right across the street from the Vatican museum entrance. |

| Wenn man eine günstige Unterkunft in der Innenstadt sucht und keinen Wert auf reichhaltiges Frühstück legt, ist das B&B Vatican Museum perfekt geeignet. Die Eigentümer sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Zimmer ist zwar einfach, aber sauber. Absolut empfehlenswert! |

| It took a while to get used to the steps in the bathroom. Traffic noise was loud but not "fatal." General location is terrific. Hosts were pleasant and helpful. Being able to use the kitchen made a huge difference for us. |

| About 1/2 level below street level. Modern, clean, good size with private bath and washroom. Kitchen and breakfast area is provided separately for guests (there are only 2 rooms in that level so you only have to share it with another guest). Food is not allowed in the room and you have to do your own clean up if you use the kitchen/breakfast room. Television is provided in each room and the Breakfast area. Location: conveniently located right accross the entrance of the Vatican Museum. From the Metro train terminal, the nearest route to the B&B is through the Ciprio/Musei Vaticani stop. This route is convenient if you don't have any luggage as there is a stairs to climb (around 50 to 60 steps). If you have luggages, the best stop is Ottaviano/San Pietro stop, a little longer walk but no stairs to climb. Cash Only payment. Transpo to the Fiumicino/Leonardo Da Vinci Airport - A limousine service is available for 30 euros plus tip (just advise the owners, Rudy and Claudia) if you're interested). We found it reasonable as we had 3 small but heavy luggages otherwise the Metro train is still okay. |

| B&B Vatican Museum was a great choice for us. It was a very convienient location. The street noise was a little loud. The hosts were wonderful and extremely helpful to us. We could not have asked for better hosts. |

| Fantastic location for a good price, with the benefit of being able to use the facilities during the day. Great hosts, good accomodation, kitchen could be better, especially the cooking machine. But overall, the perfect score. And the hosts were very helpful and forthcoming. |

| Good choice, if you don't want an expensive hotel in rome - brilliant location, nice people. From outside it doesn't look very welcoming, but inside Rudi and Claudia did their best to make it comfortable! Although it was a small room with a soft french bed (1,40 or 1,60m for 2 people?) and with a window to the street, it was warm, comfortable and clean! If you don't want to spend so much money in accomodation, its the perfect choice for a b&b! |

| An excellent location for visiting the Vatican and St. Peter's Basilica. The facility was very clean and private. There are several restuarants within a short walking distance. Bus service to other landmarks is quite reliable and inexpensive. The owners were very nice and helpful in guiding us to reputable restuarants and other establishments to ensure we were not taken advantage of. They also reserved a taxi for our departure to the airport at a very reasonable price. This was far less than other people paid for the same distance. I would definately recommend it to budget minding people and would not hesitate to stay there again. |

| The friendliness and helpfullness of the staff was absolutely fantastic. They sat us down as soon as we arrived and gave us a map and a list of value for money restaurants in the area. I would highly recommend this B & B for anyone who is looking for budget accommodation in a central location in Rome. |

| If you are looking for a convenient and safe location near the Vatican and the Vatican Museums, this B&B cannot be beaten. Rudi was very helpful in arranging a car to the airport. There is a full kitchen available for guests. It is located just across the street from the entrance to the museum, so there is a lot of street traffic. The only drawback would be a lact of air conditioning in the summer, but in October we were very comfortable. We stayed 2 nights. Rudi recommended an excellent, non-touristy restaurant-- La Tavernetta. |

| The staff was very friendly and helpful. It was pretty familial. The two existing rooms are very modern and clean. Furthermore you have got a kitchen for yourself. Therefore it is ideal if you travel with 4 persons, so that you have the whole equipment on your own. |

| Although it looked not so nice at first glance, we were surprised with the facilities and the service was great! I recommend for anyone who wants a cheap and comfortable stay in Rome. The Vatican Museum is on the other side of the street!!! |

| We stayed 2 nights. The staff/owner was incredible friendly, helpful and welcoming (we get free postcards, a town-map and tipps for restaurants and city-tours from them and of course a quick orange-juice-drink because we arrived by motorbike and it was very warm). The location is few metres from the vatican museum therefore very easy to find. The room was very small but functional and - in fact: who wants to stay in his room when he ist in Rome? The kitchen is functional, clean and you can make a good breakfast of your own (the Italien stuff is there) because you can use the fridge. The room has no climatronic which is less well when you stay longer than few days. But look on the price! We are looking forward to come again, perfect location for a short stay in Rome. Highly recommended! |
