    We felt like staying at aunt's place. Alessandra truly loves her job. Not only she gave us great restaurant recommendations, she told us how to get around and every morning was giving us tips so we could make the best of our stay. Guidebook she let us borrow for the stay, gave us all the information needed about the Rome. The room was impeccable. Cleaned everyday. AC worked perfectly. The breakfast was a lovely option to meet other travelers and share tips and experiences. We loooved our stay and if we ever come back to Rome we will surely stay here again.

    Alessandra is a wonderful host. She's very friendly, very helpful, and an extraordinarily good person. It's a privilege to know her. Frankly, once you get to know her, nothing negative stands out.

    The property is located very close to the Vatican and most popular attractions are within easy walking distance .

    Great Host - obviously very experienced and able to answer our questions. Had some suggestions for restaurants that were great. If you want to visit the Vatican, the location is awesome.

    Alessandra could not be friendlier and was extremely helpful and wonderful our whole stay. The rooms were clean and the location was perfect. We had such a lovely time at Beside the Vatican which is a perfect base if you are visiting Rome.

    There was absolutely nothing we would change, perfect.

    The trip to Rome was a celebration for my wife’s 60th birthday and what a fantastic time we had. Rome is our new favourite, well all of Italy really lol Can’t wait to go back.

    My mom and her friend had an absolutely wonderful time here. The apartment was spotless, and the host couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful—she even ordered a taxi for them and gave detailed directions whenever they needed. Every morning, the smell of freshly baked croissants greeted them, which was a lovely personal touch. The place itself is very peaceful, with everything they needed on hand, and they especially enjoyed relaxing on the charming balcony. Lovely experience, amazing stay!

    The outside of the building is not that pretty but the apartment on the inside is absolutely gorgeous! The hostess, Alessandra, is a beautiful lovely person who has pride in what she does. She makes you feel special and right at home in her spectacular Bed and Breakfast!!

    The outside of the apartment is not the prettiest but once you get familiar with your surroundings then you are fine.

    Alessandra was the sweetest host, and prepared a lovely breakfast each morning. We truly enjoyed conversing with her. The place was comfortable and clean.

    It’s close to St. Peter’s Basilica, but a bit far from the other attractions. There’s a bus stop nearby and personally we didn’t mind, but just something to consider.

    Alessandra might be one of the most wonderful people I have ever met. She had fantastic recommendations and was so gracious to us when we needed advice or anything she could help with. If you’re looking for a warm welcome to Rome, Beside the Vatican is the place to find it.

    It’s a bit longer to the Vatican than 5 mins, but it’s a great quiet location nearby. It can be a bit tough to get to if you’re taking public transport and arn’t familiar with Rome yet.
