For me, as a solo traveler, this place was exactly what I was looking for for my trip to Rome. It was walking distance to the Vatican and Metro in a safe neighborhood. It was situated in an older part of Rome, with the experience of living within Rome among locals, while having the convenience of a small hotel. The room was small and comfortable and the bathroom just as pictured. Everyone was friendly, and efficiently took care of any requests or needs. I felt free to come and go (but honestly, I was mostly out and about the city of Rome sightseeing and walking around to take in as much of Rome as I could!).
