Amazing family trip to Rome
The location where we stayed was excellent. It was convenient to everything and could walk to most sights or catch the metro which was just steps away. The BB was nice and clean. Antonella, the owner, was amazing! She met us to show us around the aprtment, stocked our fridge and cabinets full of yummy food. She also gave us suggestions of where to go and where to eat. We are at several of her suggestions and they were all amazing. Antonella made our first trip to Rome amazing. She was always available and responded quickly to any questions we had. Our trip was fantastic because Antonella went above and beyond for us. I would highly recommend staying here!

Super location and great amenities
Great location and comfortable place. Super close to the subway and is literally just two minutes from the Vatican entrance. The place has two completely separate rooms and two bathrooms which is nice for families and the provided breakfast and snacks was the most we had at any of the BB places in our stays around Italy -very appreciated for a family situation. The manager was also super friendly and very proactive in making sure we got all our needs taken care of even before we started our vacation. I would definitely stay here again.

We stayed at the Apartment. Lovely & cosy, can cook simple breakfast for the kids. Location was great, walking distance to St Peters, Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel. Just round the block from a metro station and public buses, nearby restaurants, grocery stores and laundromat. Last but certainly not least, Antonella has been the perfect host. So many compliments have already been written about her and I agree with every one of them. Hope to return soon. Grazie!

We stayed for 2 days. Antonella met us and explained areas on our map, gave us suggestions for restaurants in the area and was available to answer all our question during our stay by text. There was some 'old world charm' with the old 'cage' type elevator. The best part was that it was less than a 10 minute walk from the Vatican!

Clean lodging, close to Metro and Vatican City.
I had a lovely stay at this B & B. It is steps away from the Metro and close to Vatican City. Lots of tour agencies nearby as well, if you want to book tours in the city. Exceptionally clean. I was looking for a reasonably priced B & B with air conditioning and twin beds, and I got that and more. Special attention must be given to Antonella who made me feel so welcome! I had a lot of questions and she always responded so warmly, answering them fully and promptly . I took the private driver to and from the airport as I was with my daughter, and it was reasonable.

One of the best stays!
It was a very nice B&B, with a great host Antonella! The room was very clean and comfortable. Everything in the room was perfect. You can prepare your own BF (or even other meals if you want) with provided materials any time. Just a 10-minutes walk to Vatican and one block from the metro station! A great restaurant just underneath is an added benefit. I am glad I chose this B&B instead of a hotel nearby. Thank you, Antonella!

Excellent host. Location just right.
Antonella, our host, provided all the information we needed on arrival together with some great local knowledge of the area. She gave us valuable tips about places to visit, transport options and eating out. We occupied one of three rooms in the premises but there was no noise from the other guests. We had forgotten that it was a self serve breakfast but that actually worked well for us. It was nice to speak to other guests from around the world. We were in a location that was about 400 metres from the Vatican Museum entrance and we found that we could walk everywhere we wanted to go. Antonella was easily contactable and she ensured that we had everything we needed. We took the option of a taxi back to the airport, which she arranged, and this was an efficient and competitive service.

Home Away From Home
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. It was clean, comfortable and I can't say enough good things about Antonella, the B&B's owner. She was always available to answer a question or help in some way. We had a wonderful experience in Rome and the B&B made it even better. This place is like a home away from home and that makes life so much easier for travelers; especially those of us with small children. Thank you Antonella for your hospitality and if we are ever in Rome again we will definitely stay at Gli Scipioni.

Låg 100 m från Metron station Ottaviano och lika nära flera busshållplatser. Gångavstånd till Vatikanen ca 10 min och ca en halvtimme till Piazza Navona. Lägenheten var bra men lite annorlunda, två dubbelrum med dusch och toalett, ett litet kök och en liten hall. Köket hade kyl, en spishäll med 2 plattor, kastruller, stekpannor, bestick, glas, mm. Det fanns även en espressomaskin med kaffekapslar som man får använda. Tar de slut så fyller Mario på med nya. Ägaren Antonella hade vi bara kontakt med via sms och telefon vilket var bra, hon ordnade taxi till och från flygplatsen till ett bra pris och behövde vi fysisk hjälp så hade vi den trevlige och hjälpsamma Mario som hade ett litet cafe tvärs över gatan. Precis utanför porten hade vi en underbar kvartersrestaurang där vi åt flera kvällar och ville man ha det lite enklare så kunde man äta hos Mario. Vi kan rekommendera detta boende!

位置很好：距离梵蒂冈真的很近，走路就五分钟，旁边还有地铁站，去火车站或者西班牙广场都非常的近，附近还有很多好吃的餐馆。 房间很温馨，而且房东每天都提供很多充足的食物和水，在那里还能品尝到意大利的ESPRESSO。 房东人还特别好，有什么需求，他们都会尽可能给予帮助！ 又是有机会在去罗马，一定还会住在那里！

Convenient and comfortable stay
Near Basilica di San Pietro, about 10 min walk, just 2 min walk to metro station and bus stops. The owners are very nice. But for those who are looking for kitchen area , be aware that the kitchen is only available for preparing fried eggs during breakfast but not for cooking. We were not aware of that and was reminded by staff kindly afterwards.
