About A Campo Dei Fiori B&B
A Via Dei Giubbonari 23 B&B is a charming B&B housed in a historic palazzo in the very heart of Rome. Campodei Fiori Square, a lively centre of Roman life day and night, is just steps away.
Rooms are simply furnished, and have private bathrooms and minibars. Air conditioning is standard as well, definitely a summer necessity in Rome.
This is a small B&B with limited facilities, but the staff are more than happy to arrange transfers, tours and meet other guest requests.
Many guests enjoy their breakfast in bed. For other meals, the culinary smorgasbord that is Rome beckons. B&B staff will be happy to suggest good Italian, and other, restaurants in the area.
A Via Dei Giubbonari 23 really is in the very heart of Rome. Most attractions are well within walking distance. Of particular note is the Pantheon, which is just ten minutes’ walk away.
Positive Reviews
positive:
Amazing location
The location right in the heart of Rome can't be surpassed. Both the Vatican, and Rome's central attractions, are within reasonable walking distance. Also often mentioned is the nearby Campodei Fiori Square, which is a popular meeting spot for Romans day and night.
positive:
Kind and helpful hostess
The hostess who checks in guests, prepares the breakfast and cleans the rooms is uniformly described as a star. Nothing seems to be too much trouble, and she is more than happy to help in any way she can, though her English skills are very limited.
positive:
Excellent value for money
Even guests who have a couple of issues usually comment that the B&B represents great value, considering its location.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Not exactly as advertised
The B&B's advertising and website seems to cause some confusion regarding exactly what can be expected. Several guests commented that what they found on arrival was not at all like what they viewed on the website. Also, there is a problem with overbooking, and guests find themselves moved to rooms in different buildings around Rome. Not an ideal start to their holiday.
negative:
Very noisy at night
A very common complaint is that there is a lot of street noise, especially at night. There are popular night spots nearby, and they only tend to close around two AM. Only a few hours later traders at the nearby market start bringing their goods in. So many guests have trouble sleeping without earplugs.
negative:
Hard to find
The B&B occupies just a portion of a historic palazzo, with the remaining space being private apartments. There are no signs indicating the presence of the B&B. While directions are given on booking, many guests have trouble finding the building and entrance. Carrying a printout from streetview, or photos of the entrance, may help.
