Domus Ripetta

The host was great and very helpful when she gave us the instructions. When I booked the room I did not read the bathroom was outside of the room so it’s important to keep that in mind if you’re looking for privacy and convenience. Location is great and it was a great value for what we paid. We would recommend staying there.

Let me start by saying the owner was at the property at the agreed time and was delightful and that was the only time we saw her. I can not call this a B&B, you have a self serve espresso maker, a loaf of bread and jam, help your self and clean up after yourself, cleaning materials in kitchen were very old and dirty and I threw them out. My stay was 7 nights and only had the cleaning lady in our room once, not what I was expecting. The location was great for walking to all the sites in Rome. If you are just looking for a place to sleep this was okay but I have to comment on the people in the apartment below us were screaming and fighting all night long on multiple nights so not much sleep was had.

Very good place to stay.Ginevra is nice and accommodating owner. Point of interest are all close by. Definitely will come back and stay here.

We were expecting a B&B as the description portrays, however, what you’re actually booking is someone’s home to share with other guests & no staff presence. As entering the home, we were greeting with a pungent smell. It took us some time to place it but finally concluded it was coming from the kitchen. One of us thought it was expired milk while another thought it was the smell of the kitchen not having a good scrub down. The host did put out breakfast items: half a bag of cereal, a packaged pound cake, crackers, and coffee. We went through the cabinets (to find soap) when we noticed the dishes she sat out for us were dirty and saw there was in fact expired milk and other items like what she’d set out so we did not eat the breakfast. Not only was this an issue, but you’re required to pay a $54 cleaning fee; this place is the dirtiest place we have stayed in during our 19 day trip. The floors looked like they hadn’t been swept/mopped in quite some time. There was curly black hairs all over the bathroom (the tub, toilet, floor). We washed the toilet ourselves before using. Beds were fine but the blankets are duvets without a duvet cover which wouldn’t be an issue except, given the fact that the rest of the place was really dirty it left us to believe they’re probably not washed after each guest’s stay. Now, the host is very nice and gives you tons of helpful info. She was kind enough to allow us to leave our luggage the day we checked out until our flight. Location was great!

Truly a wonderful place to stay in Rome. Location is perfect. Able to walk to some sights, metro station & taxi stand are very close. Great restaurants in the neighborhood. Rooms are clean and comfortable with really cute art work on the walls. Kitchen is a shared space with everything provided for breakfast. The owner is so helpful in providing info on where to eat and how to get around. No complaints about anything during our 3 night stay.
