Hidden gem

Fantastic place to stay right behind the vatican not fad to walk to the center. Owner Franz is amazing so helpful and encourages you to make the most of your holiday suggesting things to do other than the main tourist sights. Don't be fooled by the outside, initially hard to find but definate one of the best locations I have stayed in. Rooms are immaculate, comfortable with an en suite and cleaned every third day. Breakfast is continentAl with beautiful croissants. I have already recommended this B&B to family and friends and plan to return later in the year to travel more of Italy and will use this as a base.. fantastic holiday x
