Gialli Vatican Guesthouse

Recommend!!! Francesco is an extraordinary host. The location of the property is the best in Rome, it’s near the metro Ottaviano and about 5 minutes away from the Basilica San Pietro. The neighborhood is very safe. The location is very clean and we appreciated that a lot. The breakfast is very tasty. The bed is very comfy. To sum up, the best location i’ve ever stayed in. I will definitely come back!

* Amazing location, transport right on the doorstep and tonnes of options, there’s no where you can’t get to easily. You’re about 5 minutes walk to the Vatican City too, and there’s a lot of options for food and drinks close to the accommodation. Each day there are markets outside selling clothes, tourist things it creates nice buzz in the mornings. * Bed is super comfy. The room is really small but does the job, I knew it wouldn’t be huge but it’s true that in the photos it looks bigger. Really clean facilities. * There’s free breakfast which is such a nice detail! * Francesco was super nice and easy to contact and helpful when needed especially since our flight got delayed and we didn’t arrive to the accommodation until around 11PM, he was still waiting to let us enter which was such a nice detail. * We needed an iron and it was left in the room when they came to clean, good to know it’s available. * The air con is great and much needed in the hot Rome summers. * For me it’s important to have a good shower and the shower was great and super clean.

The stay was nice. It was very easy to find the address and the room. The room was alright, there was a comfortable bed, a TV, a hair dryer. They had a kitchen which all guests were able to use - they offered tea, coffee, some snacks like little croissants, bananas, yoghurts which was very convinient in the mornings and you don't need to pay extra. The kitchen is not meant for cooking, I don't think there was a stove. The place is very close to the Vatican city (which was great as we were able to book early visits without getting up too early). There is metro station right outside (Ottaviano metro station) and you can get to the historical city center in about 10 minutes and to Termini Train Station in about 15 minutes. There was also a bus No. 23 quite close and we used it to get to the Trastevere district.

The location of the property is excellent. I walked eight minutes to St. Peter’s Square. There were restaurants all around. Lots of shopping right outside the door and down the streets. The metro is just one block over. The room itself was soundproofed, so it was extremely quiet, which was wonderful it’s air-conditioned. The room was very clean. The bathroom was really funny. It was an extremely elaborate shower that had six showerheads on the sides a massive showerhead over head and one hand held shower. It also played music had lights and had vents in it. The host was really great! They had a little kitchen that provided croissants every morning and coffee and tea. There was other snacks with toast and yogurt and juice. That was a really nice treat. In the room were two bottles of water in a small refrigerator . The place is extremely safe. It has three locks. The front door on the street is locked. The door to your hallway is locked and your room door is also locked. It’s a very nice area and I felt very safe walking at night alone. There’s so many tourists in the area. It’s quite a live. I really love this place. I’d go back in a minute.!

Near metro station and everyday tidying of room. Also, you could get snacks free whenever you wanted to.
