Very unhappy stay. This is an Airbnb, not a hotel. All check-in procedures must be completed by yourself, and there are no on-site staff. There is a strong smell of disinfectant inside the unit. There is no daily housekeeping service or towel replacement—only one towel is provided. There is also no customer service or front desk support. If you don’t mind that any issues must be communicated to the host via text message and that responses may not be immediate, then this place could be an option for you. The city tax was listed as $6 when booking, but the host is charging €7 instead, and it must be paid in cash.

The best part of this place is the location: There are tons of restaurants, shops, and perfect walking distance to everything notable.

We never met the staff as the front desk was vacant both days we stayed. The room smelled of sewer gas, but was clean. The bed and pillows were uncomfortable to us. The entire hotel consists of 4 rooms inside what could best be described as an apartment. There was no real privacy as our door opened to the lounge area, in which we could hear a pin drop let alone people making coffee or tea. The lounge area was clean and very nicely stocked with coffee and tea though. Getting to the “Hotel” was an adventure starting with a short walk since our taxis couldn’t drive to the front door. You need a code for the front door, a small two person elevator (or one person and one suitcase), and then a code to enter the skinny door into the hotel area. Since we were “late” getting to our room, the door to our room was unlocked and our key was on the nightstand.

There's no door to the shower which allowed water to spray out. Shower water pressure was inadequate.

Weak and a bit cold the shower. Room conditions overall good. Location of the place is excellent. Expedia sold me the reservation as a Hotel. In fact, it was a guest house. Descripcion needs to be clearer about it in the booking process.

The area was nice, but the bathroom had black mold in and around the shower. The staff was not at the premises but responded when phoned. I checked out at 8:40 am; no staff was around. I called the staff, but it went to VM. No breakfast at all! Way too much money for this place.

Perfect stay

This was a great choice for us and exactly what we needed. Central location but quiet room when you go back for a rest. Everywhere is walkable from here but make sure you have comfy shoes as you will walk a lot! Staff were welcoming and helpful, room was a good size and the kitchenette was a useful addition. Would definitely recommend staying here.

This was our second time staying here. Everything was perfect except for the mattress. I’m not sure if there has been a little bit of wear since we last stayed in 2019 but the mattress was VERY “springy”. You could feel each and every coil when you sat on it or put your hand on it. I was afraid it would be even more obvious when we went to bed , but it wasn’t too bad. Unfortunently we won’t be coming back as I’m concerned the mattresses would only get worse and harder to sleep on if they aren’t replaced (especially since everything else is top notch).

Perfect location in Rome, close to everything but no noise from street level. Rooms were clean, modern and new. Bed was huge (definitely a king not a double), with a firm mattress and big pillows. The shower door needs to be aligned when showering, something previous guests obviously didnt realize as there is decay around the bottom
Of the shower stall from water leaking out. This is probably the only thing that was not so nice, but could be fixed. There is an elevator or steps, we used both with no issue. An overall perfect guesthouse that we will definitely stay at again!

Beautiful hotel, great location, helpful manager

We loved our stay here! The manager was so helpful when sorting out our booking prior due to a credit card issue and then on advice on what to do while there.

The hotel itself was very nicely decorated and clean. It was like being in a boutique hotel without the cost, which was also so reasonable.

It was so central and we loved having Pastificio and Pompi on our street as well as being easy for the metro.

We had an issue with the safe which could not be resolved straight away as there is no 24 hour reception, but the manager was helpful and ensured that this was sorted as soon as possible.

Would definitely stay here again.

Spagna SR - Perfect Location and accommodations

I would definitely recommend Spagna Secret Rooms. Marco contacted us the day before to inquire about our arrival time, to make sure we were accommodated. We were driving from the Venice area, into Rome where we needed to return our car, so we were unsure of our exact arrival time. Marco was so nice about it, stayed in contact with us throughout the day, and helped us when we arrived. He was able to direct us to areas that would be nice to visit in the evening (Trevi Fountain) and directed us to an eating establishment near the room. The rooms were very nice, clean, inviting, with a little eat-in area just outside the rooms, which we utilized a few times. The location is PERFECT; walking distance to most of the major historical sites, and just a block from the metro, which was perfect to catch to any other sites (Vatican) and the train station. The only drawback for us; their was a lack of really good authentic food in the area, it was food that was adapted for the \"tourist\" pallet. Although, Venchi is a candy and gelato store only a few doors down, and it is AMAZING gelato! There was also a Tiramisu bakery across the street that was really good! Would Highly recommend staying at Spagna Secret Rooms, perfect accommodations, especially if you are only staying in the area or Rome for a few days!!

Convenient location. Just minutes away from the Spanish Steps and metro station. Walking distance to other tourist spots. There was no shower door and water would go all over the bathroom. There was also a window from the room looking into the shower so there was no privacy either. There was always someone at the reception desk which was helpful.

Stone throw from Spanish Steps

Absolutely loved staying at Spagna Secret Rooms on my recent trip to Rome in June.

Staying here made me feel like I was living like a local, waking up in the morning and opening the shudders to see the street below and popping out onto the street vs. getting off the lift in a crowded lobby. You get to know the store owners and staff - it's great experience.

While I was definitely on vacation, it was also great to able be a stone throw from touristy stops like Spanish Steps, 10mins walk to Trevi Fountain. Easy to get on the subway (Line A) being a 2 min walk from the Spagna Metro stop, which I took to get to Vatican (Line A, six stops) or transfer to Line B to visit the Coliseum. Also connecting with Termini station to get out to Florence for a day trip (~1.5 hr train ride) and head to Venice for 2 days (~3 hr train ride). (Tickets via italotreno.it)

There are TONS of fabulous local restaurants up and down all the streets of Rione III Colonna to grab amazing pasta.

This is also the best area to stay if you're looking to get a bit of luxury shopping done. Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Gucci etc boutiques are a 2 mins walk - making it easy to bring your purchases back to your hotel room so you don't have to carry them around all day. There is also a great lux mall Centro Commerciale Porta di Roma about a 5 mins walk that is open until 11pm with Louis Vuitton, Celine, Gucci all the brands (except Chanel) if you'd like one VAT receipt to sort out at the airport.

mind the steps, spagna secret rooms

we bought this under \"mind the steps\" hotel so the other name spagna secret rooms was a bit confusing.
but the hotel is great, the manager was helpful with reserving us museum tickets. they don't offer coffee
but did have tea and hot water kettle for us to use. the room was very clean with a large modern bathroom.

the location feels safe and convenient to attractions. i have recommend this hotel to my boss and his family. beautiful place, beautiful city. thank you.
