We stayed at Ottaviano Guest House for six nights; overall we loved our stay. It was certainly very convenient, just a short walk from the Metro and again to Saint Peters Basilica with lots of dining options in the area.
Our room looked out over the street and it was a bit noisy late at night and early in the mornings but in the scheme of things it’s a great place to stay.

Budget but great value.Recommended.

Location near the Vatican but some distance from Colliseum but easily accessed by Metro. Room spotless with good facilities and good eating places of good value near hotel. Would certainly use again in this expensive city as a great budget choice. Lovely views from window.

No amenities. Staff is friendly. Bring your own shampoo and shower gel/soap as there’s is not the best. Wifi is slow. The towels I had were not clean. It’s basically a large apartment with 6 separate large rooms with their own bathrooms. You have a set of a few keys to carry around with you. It’s very close to the Vatican. For the price, you may want to spend a bit more and stay at a hotel.

Nice location but had issues

Nice room close to the Vatican. Only one, well two complaints, 1) didn't know upfront about the city tax levied at checkout and 2) felt rushed for checkout. It was supposed to be at 1100 but the person at the desk was at our door earlier than 0800 saying it was time to check out.

Superb location

This is an excellent base from which to explore the main sights of Rome. I could walk to most of them. I left my room at 7.45am and was walking in the Roman Forum at 8.30 am. The whole sight was deserted. A wonderful experience. I was in St Peter's Basilica which opens at 8.30am at 8.30. So I missed all the long queues and had a much more fulfilling experience. My room had all I needed. A comfortable bed. A large en-suite. A kettle and a fridge. Plus wifi. Vichenso on reception was so polite and helpful. Lots of shops and restaurants nearby and very easy access to the subway.

Location nice if visiting Vatican

Everything about the hotel was going okay (aside of needing to walk to a cafe for their free breakfast and needing to go through multiple doors to get to one's room and needing to carry a huge key chain with multiple keys on it around at all times) until check out. That was a terrible experience. The manager yelled and screamed because we refused to sign a slip we felt we did not owe. He added more tax than what we were quoted from Expedia when we booked the room.
A heated discussion ensued for over an hour. Eventually the slip was signed but only because we needed to catch a train to our next destination.
Never in my life have I experienced something like this. And never (I don't use this word lightly) will I recommend this guest house to anyone.
Stay away!

Excellent accommodation in Rome

Comfortable, tastefully furnished room with all facilities, e.g. fridge, safe, kettle and coffee. Located in an excellent area, a stone's throw from the Vatican, good and reasonably-priced restaurants and the Metro. Friendly and helpful concierge service, immaculately clean and reasonably priced.
