Best B&B Vatican

* Steps from Vatican City and the Metro, which will take you all over Rome.
* Located on the 3^rd floor of an apartment building — a small lift will take you if the stairs are too much for you.
* We couldn’t get the TV to work at all
* Lukewarm water for the shower was miserable to wake up to, although the towels were amazing and soft
* Large rooms
* The communal laptop was gone for half of our stay so we couldn’t use the laptop to look up things in Rome or check our email.
* There is a nice stash of books on Rome and DVD’s to borrow for your stay
* No one available to ask questions. A girl was there on some mornings, but she stayed for no more than an hour and always seemed in a rush to leave. There was a number given for any problems or concerns but I missed having a person there to direct you and answer your questions, especially in a huge city like Rome.
* Cute, modern décor
* mini-​fridge in room was small and kept nothing cold
* Breakfast was ok. We didn’t get any assortment of fresh fruit (only an apple), nor did we have an option of any juice, meat or cheese. Spending 3 days there, the food was a little redundant. Also the cappuccino machine was broken one of the days.
* Walls are very thin, if people are just walking through the hallways it can be loud.

We have stayed at Best Sistine and Best Vatican, and both are quiet and comfortable. Best part? Great neighborhoods w/​Metro stops, and quality shopping/​restaurants close by.
PROS: location is convenient, near Ottaviano Metro, and a couple blocks from Vatican. Quiet (for Rome), tree-​lined street. Rooms are just big enough, very clean, and the a/​c works great! Nicoletta keeps the place in fine order.
CONS: four floors up, but there is an elevator.
We have gotten great service at both Best B&B locations. Owners are quick to respond to emails, and we felt the prices matched the quality of the establishments. We’ve stayed w/​Best B&B last 2 trips to Rome, and would do so again.
Cheers!
