Hotel Details

Location

Located in the San Lorenzo district, 14 km from Rome Ciampino Airport, a 30-minute walk to the Colosseum, and 2 km from Rome Termini Train Station.
The guest house is within an 8-minute walk of Porta Maggiore and less than 1 km from Sapienza University. Multiple bus stops and a tram line run directly from the front door, providing efficient connections to the historic centre, Termini station, and the Colosseum. For those driving, a public garage is nearby, though no on-site parking is available. The immediate area offers a range of bars, eateries, and grocery shops within a 5-minute walk. Walking to the Colosseum takes around 30 minutes, and Vatican City is roughly 40 minutes on foot.

Amenities

Free Wi-Fi throughout, paid airport shuttle (pick-up/drop-off with additional charge), shared kitchen, safety deposit box, CCTV in common areas, and smoke alarms.
Wi-Fi is free in all areas, though coverage can be inconsistent - it may not reach inside all rooms. A paid airport shuttle service is available for both pick-up and drop-off; the shuttle runs to Rome Ciampino Airport (14 km away). The property has safety deposit boxes in rooms, CCTV monitoring common areas, fire extinguishers, and smoke alarms. Accepted payment methods are Visa, Maestro, and MasterCard. There is no luggage storage or laundry service. Check-in requires contacting the host by phone, as the building has no signage. Housekeeping is not included during the stay; visitors should plan to manage their own linen and towel arrangements.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Arrive with a phone signal and the host's number ready; the building has no sign or doorbell marking, and entry requires a phone call.

  • 02

    Plan to pay the city tax (approx. 7€ per night) and a potential 500€ cash security deposit on arrival, as this was requested on site.

  • 03

    Use the nearby tram stop and bus lines for quick access to central Rome and the Colosseum, rather than walking.
