10.0“Fantastic stay in a great location.”
+One of the most fantastic host experiences we have ever had. They are so knowledgeable about Roman history, churches, art, culture and restaurants. Even after we’d left to a large apartment in Trastevere where we were meeting up with family, Lyuba found us a lovely restaurant and even made reservations for our family group of nine. That was above and beyond. The rooms were comfortable and very attractive and the soundproof windows made sleeping on a fairly busy street (traffic-wise) easy and quiet so we could look out the windows and see the huge plane trees and the parakeets! We loved that the area was quiet and pleasant and yet was easy walking distance to the Vatican and the tourist crowds. Lyuba and Marco were great hosts and we appreciated finding restaurants that are not tourist joints and that feature typical Roman cuisine. Oh, and the breakfasts were very special. We would highly recommend their place!

10.0“For easy access to all of the major sights while in Rome, and for a comfortable room, stay here!”
+Oh wow! The long breakfast table greets you each morning with an enormous Roman feast. Home made baked goods, savory frittatas, fresh fruit, yogurt, eggs, toast, cappuccinos, fresh juices and more. Lyuba and Marco are helpful and informative hosts, guiding you to where and how to visit some of the major sights and museums during your stay. Lyuba can make dinner reservations, taxi bookings and arrange airport transfer for you. This place is in a perfect location, within walking distance to the Vatican, shops and local restaurants. And the beds are so comfortable.
−There was nothing we didn't like. However, a common seating area for guests other than your bedroom or breakfast area was not available. But the reasoning behind it was clearly explained to us and we certainly understood.

10.0“perfect”
+We spent one‑month travelling around Italy, and we had lovely experiences with many B&B hosts. However, Lybua and Marco stand out above all the rest. We stayed here for four nights. The apartment is spacious and tastefully decorated, and it is exceptionally clean. It is around a 10‑minute walk to the Vatican Museum. A metro stations, wonderful restaurants, convenience stores and a well‑stocked supermarket are all nearby. Still, what impressed us most was Lybua and Marco’s warmth, sincerity and wonderful hospitality. Everything was perfect from the very moment we arrived. The breakfast every day was plentiful and delicious , Lybua is an amazing cook. Thanks to their recommendations, we visited many unique‑character churches across Rome. If the maximum score were 10, we would gladly give them 20 points or even more. We hope to come back to Rome with our family and stay here again.

10.0“A truly special stay with wonderful hosts”
+We absolutely loved our stay with Lyuba and Marco! From the moment we arrived, we received such a warm and genuine welcome from the hosts, who made us feel completely at home. The breakfast was a real highlight, an amazing spread of fresh, homemade food, beautifully prepared and full of delicious local touches. The hosts’ recommendations were also invaluable. We hadn’t planned our trip to Italy in much detail, and they went above and beyond to help guide us on the best places to visit, both in Rome and further afield. Their local knowledge really helped us make the most of our time. Most of all, we loved getting to know our hosts. Their warmth, generosity and genuine enthusiasm made our stay feel really special. We would happily stay here again!

10.0“The location is excellent,it's close to all the major attractions, restaurants, and public transport”
+Our stay at VATICA B&B Roma was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, the owners, Marco and Lyuba, made us feel as warm and comfortable as if we were at home. By the end of our stay, they felt like an extended family to us. Their kindness, genuine care, and attention to every detail went far beyond what we expected. They were always thoughtful, helpful, and eager to make sure we had the best possible experience in Rome. It was clear that they are not simply running a business,they are passionate about creating a welcoming home for every guest. After we arrived, they provided us with excellent recommendations for authentic local restaurants. They helped us make a reservation at a fantastic neighborhood restaurant, and on our very first evening, Lyuba even walked us there personally to make sure we found it without any trouble. That level of hospitality is incredibly rare and immediately made us feel welcomed and cared for. One of the absolute highlights was the incredible breakfast, especially on the morning of our departure. It was, without a doubt, the best breakfast we had during our entire trip to Italy. Every dish was prepared with high-quality organic ingredients an

10.0+I loved everything about our two bedroom stay. The beds and pillow were comfortable the bathroom was exceptionally clean. Lyuba, there are not enough words to describe her as a host and as a person. The breakfast was exceptional she was very helpful with details on tours taking the Metro and just a good-hearted person. Marco's kindness & help with navigating ubers and taxis were very informative as well. Our location was walking distance to the Vatican Museum plenty of restaurants and pastry shops.
−walking around Rome was a little hard because of the heatwave in Italy & Europe. Our host did a good job trying to make us comfortable in the heatwave with air-conditioning.
