I’m a 21yr old and visited Rome for the first time, wanting a cheap and affordable place to stay that was in walking distance to the city center. Gialel is exactly that. I went during peak season and they didn’t rip me off, and it was a 15 minute walk to Trevi. No AC, but if you simply use the room as a “rest stop”, it works wonders. Clean sheets, bathroom, and friendly staff. Not much more needed than that if you’re visiting Rome on a budget.

Rooms are minimalist tasteful modern designed. The extra seating was appreciated. The blackout windows, by virtual of an electronic pull-down cover, are great. Nice balcony for all rooms. While limited, breakfast was great. I had the best scrambled eggs that I ever had. Breakfast was simple, but all that was needed.

There was no one in the office when we arrived. Not knowing how to initiate a call via WhatsApp, a friendly store owner allowed us to use his cellphone. Friendly and helpful staff came quality to check us in. The room is extremely basic, with only had a refrigerator, but no other amenities, not even cups. Staff gave us some verify flimsy plastic cups. After putting 2 together, that was not enough. The elevator was only allowed with luggage. Me at 71 and wife at 68, had to walk up from the ground floor to the 4th floor, 5 initial steps and 19.steps to ea h floor above. Need to inform guuests, in advance, to know how to do calls via WhatsApp. The walking distance to the nearest Hop-on-Hope-Off stop and Metro was a blt long, but doable.

If you arrive before the check in time there is no way to enter the building and no one to ask questions of. If you are dropped off by their transfer you can’t drop your bags off, as they state, because you can’t get in the building. The office is on the second floor, which wasn’t communicated to us. The elevator is not accessible so you carry your bags up two floors. The woman who arrived to check us in was very friendly and helpful but we were already aggravated by that point. Also, they are NOT a bed and breakfast as advertised. We were notified at check in that they are a guest house and don’t have breakfast even though all of their advertising and signage says Bed And Breakfast. Overall not really happy with this listing

Seria mejor hospedaje si mejoran esos servicios.

Lamentablemente no habia agua caliente, la ducha y el vanitory....mal ahi. La gente reclamaba,pero no fue solucionado. El servicio de limpieza solo retiraban las bolsas de basura. No habia recambio de ropa blanca. La habitación comoda,grande , tv no era smart, se.perdía la señal. Muy bien ubicado, la zona está muy buena ,cerca de todo los puntos de interés. Yo creo si el establecimiento mejora.esos servicios , seria muy bueno. La recepcionista muy atenta.

The room was located a little off the beaten path, but still close to both metro and bus lines for easy access. We had to leave the window open for cool air, but the neighbors were a little loud. The staff was wonderful and helpful. The hot water cycled through cold to warmish and was hot at one point. Just don't expect a long hot shower. I would stay again. The price and location were good.

We don’t like the shared bathroom and the noise of the construction site opposite our room. The website says B&B , but in fact no breakfast. It’s a scam.

I saw another review and it said the property is miss labeled as a B&B. I agree: it’s a B. But that doesn’t take away from the accommodations. There is construction going on across the street and with the windows closed you can’t hear it but for a slight hum. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was clean and well equipped. The staff was helpful and kind.

We booked a double room with a shared bathroom. Staff was there to greet us when we checked in, and were kind and efficient. Room was spacious and had a mini-fridge which was nice. A big overhead fan kept us cool at night, we never got too hot even in the early September heat. The bed was made for us every day, and room was relatively clean, but there was so much dust in the corners that when I accidently dropped a clothing item on the floor against the wall it got so dirty I couldn't wear it anymore. Main issue was the bathroom. 2 bathrooms are shared between several rooms. Showers and toilets are not separated, meaning if two people shower at the same time there is no toilet for the rest of the guests to use. One of the bathrooms doesn't have a lock on the door, just a chain. The first night I showered there, someone partially opened the door because there was no actual lock, which was an icky experience. There was also no hand soap in the bathrooms, just empty bottles. I tried to tell staff this but after we checked in, there was never anyone around. On our last morning, there were LOUD renovations/construction on nearby rooms down the hallway starting just before 8 AM. We were never told this would happen. No breakfast was offered to us. This is not a B&B. I stay in budget accommodations often, but wouldn't recommend this place if you have other options. For 1 night I think it could be okay if you just need a safe place to sleep. The area felt safe and was convenient.

There was no AC in the room, the bathroom was not inside the room, it was a shared bathroom. I could never find somebody to ask a question. It did smell good and the room was clean. There is no room service, so you will find the room just as you left it. The bathroom was clean. It was definitely an experience.
