The property is listed as hotel but the place looks nothing like a hotel , very bad and inconvenient for families or individual person. According to the expidia website and pictures the reality is totally different. The dining area is nothing other than small kitchen where can’t fit two person and looks like brothel

It gave us a feel of living in Italy. It is close to the metro, shops and it feels authentic. The staff were just a text away. Great place to stay. It would help if the beds were more comfortable.

Delivery of crouissants each morning was very nice. Avalailability of tea coffee and other breakfeast or snacks were readily available was also a very nice addition. Location was within walking distance to some of the main attractions. Property felt safe. My only feedback would be on the mainfloor doorlock where is unique that a picture be made on how to use it.

I have never had such wonderful hosts/managers in my domestic and international travels of 45 years. Simone and Anette were there to make absolutely sure to make their guests feel taken care of. I am a social person and at a midday point they were both there with me and a small family sharing life experiences for 45 minutes. What a great experience. But there was a shy couple and our hosts were sensitive to their desire to just come and go quietly. With only four rooms they are only there for several hours a day but can be easily reached with a phone call. I was free to go to my daily plans after having my coissant and espresso. The fridge was available 24 hours a day for fruit, juice and yogurt. It is a rather simple place, but well stocked, 3 minutes to the Metro and very thoughtful extras. I cannot say more about my experience at Old Kitchen. So glad I found them! Bruce P.S. I made a one time mistake of leaving my backpack in a taxi. Simone was willing to call around to all the taxi complanies to find it. I said no because I had my most important stuff and didn't want to waste the last 36 hours of my vacation.

Our stay at the Old Kitchen Vatican was great. The area is safe . It is a 25min walk to the start of the major attractions . 10 min walk to the Vatican. 2mins to the metro. The area is full of cafes restaurants and shopping.The apartment has a shared entrance and kitchen which is stocked with bread fruit cheese and juices. Fresh croissants are delivered daily. Like everywhere in Rome the facilities are old but charming and extremely clean. There is an elevator. Annette and Simone are wonderful hosts. They answer in a timely fashion are considerate and fair. I would not hesitate to book again.
