This is a B&B without the services associated with a hotel - given that B7B Santa Croce was a great place to stay, conveniently located , spacious, comfortable, and very affordable. We had the room near reception which is huge- with a large living area with a couch, a large sleeping area with a queen size bed, and large wardrobe, and a pleasant private terrace. We had no problems checking in after 5 pm because we notified the owner ahead of time. The housekeeping lady was there. She speaks not a word of English, and my Italian is virtually non-existent, but we managed to figure out the keys, access to the building routine. I did think that it would be much easier on her to have written instructions in some of the major languages. The breakfast, brought to our door every morning (prepared by our housekeeper), was generous (eggs, toast, yogurt, sometimes a sweet roll, cereal, plenty of coffee and hot milk. having our own bathroom down the hall was not a problem- the only time I ever saw someone else in the hall (other than our housekeeper) was the last night, which was a Friday. We never learned our housekeeper's name (shame on us!), but please give her a generous tip upon leaving. As far as I can see she not only prepares the breakfasts, she cleans the rooms as well. She is there from early morning until the evening. After a long day of sightseeing around 7 pm we hopped on the Metro at Termini and she was on our car, going back to the B&B (probably to help someone check in)!
