Casa Di Iginia E Paolo

( 2 stars , Rome , Italy )

Friendly staff, elevator to the room floors, good coffee, very clean (all rooms and breakfast room) It is a B&B, no hotel; Room: very noisy (Room 6), does not match to pictures; bathroom: very small, no hot water (defective heater?); breakfast: all out of the plastic box,E

Horrible Bed and Breakfast. Dirty, small rooms (not even a TV), showers so tiny that only anorexic people could fit comfortably. It's not a joke: a sligthly overweighted person or a pregnant woman cannot enter the shower. 100 euros for such a place is not acceptable, even in Rome. In fact, this Bed and Breakfast is probably not an official accomodation facility, but a private appartment that is used as a hotel. There is no sign that indicates that it is a B & B on the door. Not even on the bell. They just indicate the name of the owner. They don't give you any bill. You are requested to pay (cash of course, no credit card) upon arrival. I wonder whether this type of business is legal. I strongly urge the Italian tourist authorities to control this type of activity. I was fooled by the comments of former customers on this site. I wonder how the tolerance of some people is so high. Some even found the relationship quality/price to be good. This place is not better than a student's room. In fact, many students facilities I used in my youth were much better than this place. Just a word on breakfast: it was served in the kitchen of the appartment and consisted of coffee (yes, freshly brewed, but no other choice, among others: no decaf.)and pre-packed cookies. Period. Conclusion: get away from that place. Venere: this place should not be announced on your website. It does not reach the minimum standard.

The room that we stayed in was spacious and the location of the B&B is great. You are about a beautiful 15 minute walk from the Fontana Di Trevi. The owner is friendly and very helpful. I recommend staying at this B&B.

Simple, but clean. Most people stayed only one or two nights. It is pretty far away from Trastevere and Piazza Navona. And there are not much restaurants and bars around. But therfore its a safe neighborhood.

Good facilities for the price,E

This B&B is great!!! The location is superb, few blocks from the luxurious via Veneto and the Spanish steps. The surrounding is very good, with great access to major sites and very nice and secure.- Paolo is like Mario Bross, tipical Italian with great humour and kind!!! Rooms are big and tidy (they clean and change the sheets frecuently).- The breakfast is very good and the relation price-quality is excellent!!! The baths (shared) are allways clean and never had any problems, there are 2 complete WC for 5 rooms.- Never find a deal like this!!

Cash only unless you are a no show then charge to CC. Looked like a skid-row boarding house. Breakfast terrible. Stay somewhere else. Over priced. Only saving grace was excellent restaurant around the corner.

My daughter and I were welcomed warmly by Paolo, even though we arrived very early without calling or e-mailing our itinerary (my oversight). Interior was as pictured, very spacious & clean. Location could not have been better; we walked to most destinations. Quietness of room was slightly disturbed by some renovations going on nearby, not a biggie.

My wife and me stayed at Paolos for 3 nights and we were very lucky to have booked this accomodation. The rooms were spacious, clean and pretty new. At night there was some traffic noise on via romangna, but as the rooms are air conditioned , you can close the windows. The shared bathrooms were cleen, too. Breakfast was ok. Paolo was very nice and gave advice to everything concerning sightseeing, parking, etc. Via romangna is located very close to the famous villa borghese and not far from all the other sights (we walked everywhere). Otherwise there are bus stations everywhere round via romangna and the metro station "barberini" can be reached within a 10 minutes walk. We would come back here again to visit wonderful Rome!

really nice staff, rooms quite small, bath really small, quiet place.
