Affreschi Su Roma Luxury B&B

We cannot believe that this stay has such high reviews. There is only x2 positives to staying here: - location is reasonably central - Air conditioned (keeping in mind vast amounts of dust blew out when turning on aircon) Beware : photos are not how it actually is! This place absolutely stinks! They try to mask the smell with a horrible room spray that honestly makes the situation worse as it brings on a headache. Not only does the toilet macerator toilet stink, but the sink also smells and did not drain properly. The macerator also makes a lot of noise. It was so unpleasant to be in the bathroom, we ended up shutting the door and avoiding it completely. We cannot over emphasise enough how badly this B&B smelt. Alongside this, walls, floors, and general spaces were filthy. Shower located in bedroom leaked profusely onto the floor. Mould on walls and floors. Sheets were averagely cleaned, however bed topper and display cushion were revolving. The B&B advertises room service… this did not occur. Safe didn’t work. You would expect this to cost well and truely under €100 per night. Might as well stay at a hostel if you are looking for cheap and simple stays.

Although the location was great and the breakfast decent, the poor quality of the room is the reason behind the two stars. The room was old and the toilet/shower were functioning poorly. Sadly it was not that clean with a lot of tiny black flies. The staff is friendly, they give recommendations. But they should update the rooms.

This Guest House is amazing in a great location by Piazza Navone - beautifully decorated room; very comfortable; great breakfast area inside or outside on a second floor balcony; Within walking distance to all of the sights. The managers are fabulous. Check- in was very easy and welcoming. There was a marathon going on when we had to get to Termini Train Station for a long distance ticketed train. Pretty much the whole city was shut down, including all of the metro public transportation. The taxis were blocked from the surrounding area. The manager went out of his way and beyond our expectations by going with us to show us the way. Amazing staff and a beautiful guest house. We wouldn't stay anywhere else while in Rome.
