Without a doubt my favorite hotel/B&B in our European vacation was the B&B San Pietro alle Fornaci in Rome. A plus was it’s location which was a 5 minute walk to the Vatican and it was surrounded with restaurants and a Carrefour supermarket nearby. Another thing we appreciated was the bus stop right in front of our building which we used a lot.
We were met by Andrei who manages the B&B for his boss along with three other properties.
We were fascinated with all the keys he carried around.
There was an elevator in the building.
Sharon had the room right beside the entrance. It had a huge bed as well as another twin sized bed. Easily 3-4 people can fit in this room.
The B&B had 3 rooms and our was at the end of the hallway.
I loved the big room and simple decor.

Hairdryer and shampoo
Our room had a balcony but not much of a view so we never opened the door since we preferred the comfort of the cold air-condition.

My most favorite part of this B&B was the washing machine and dryer. We quickly bought laundry detergent from Carrefour and did our laundry everyday. Yehey no more hand washing and clothesline.
We were free to use the espresso machine, water kettle and refrigerator (inside the cabinet) as much as we want.
This De’Longhi machine used pods and Andrei taught us how to make lattes. Wherever there’s free good coffee we’re happy.
Every morning Andrei would bring a big box of bread, danish, croissant and ham & cheese sandwiches for our breakfast. He would also serve us blood orange juice. Not the best bread but it was good enough for our breakfast.
I still ate my daily yogurt for breakfast which Rochelle bought from Carrefour.

There was free wifi in the B&B too. What more can I ask for? I HIGHLY recommend B&B San Pietro alle Fornaci to anyone planning travel to Rome. It’s very easy to communicate with the owner, Marius since he responds to our email immediately. He was also very helpful with arranging our transportation and whatever else we needed.

Nice Bed and Breakfast,indeed! I love to stay in B&B’s as they are luxurious and affordable as well. It is the nice way to experience local culture and cuisine. On my vacation I went to Kidlington and choose to stay in B&B and I am having very good experience.
