Laterano Guest House

Room was clean and toiletries were provided. 1 free coffee pod per person was provided; it was a nice gesture. There are 2 shared bathrooms, so it makes it easier to share and they were clean as well.

when we arrived we rang the doorball but there was this sort of answering machine that spoke in Italian only. So there was some confusion there but all was sorted at the end.

This guesthouse was a nice, cheap option for Rome. The location was okay, it was about a ten minute walk to the Colosseum, however a much farther walk (30 minutes to an hour) to main tourist areas of Rome. It is close walking distance to a few train stations, however. The room itself was quite large, with a double bed, desk and wardrobe.

I booked here because I thought that it would have a reception who I could talk to about attractions, tours etc throughout Rome. There were no staff to talk to here, it was self check-in - which I'm sure makes it cheaper, I just personally wanted to talk to a staff person about Rome!
