It's not often that you feel like an old friend returning for a visit - but this is exactly how I felt as soon as I arrived here. Beatrice makes you so welcome not just as a guest, but as if you are a real friend.
The room I had was small but so cosy and comfortable - the bed was very conducive to a good night's rest. There is a little ensuite, which is a real bonus and best of all, this room looks into a very pretty courtyard, which means you forget you are in a busy capital city.
Breakfast! What can I say?? It was amazing. Fantastic coffee, bread, meats, cheese, fruits, eggs ... it really sets you up for the day! Beatrice even treated us to her own homemade cheese, which was simply delicious.
It was also lovely to chat with Beatrice over breakfast - it made us feel like a part of the family. In addition, she was so happy to give ideas, advice and make phone calls to check transport links.
As I had to leave early Beatrice even made me a fantastic panini to take with me, and she put in a bottle of drink too.
I felt I was leaving a friend and I would always try to stay here in the future.
There's only one problem - I can only give Beatrice 5 stars - when she really deserves 10!
Thank you Beatrice for making my stay in Roma perfect :)
