Wonderful Stay by the Vatican
The room was very clean and beautifully decorated. You have an individual control for the air conditioner so it was very comfortable. The breakfast had a lot of delicious food to choose from and the hostess heated milk for us to make hot chocolate since we don't drink coffee. The hostess was very friendly and considerate and let us leave our luggage after we checked out. She gave us many directions for restaurants. We were able to walk to the Vatican entrance in about 10 minutes. The area was really quiet and very secure.

Could Have Been Better
This is my second attempt to submit a review, not sure the first one went thru. Very unhappy with the check-in procedure as the facility did not comply with the instructions they gave us which resulted in a one hour wait in front of the locked building. Warm showers, O K breakfast, smoking on adjacent balcony, poor cleaning and no towel change for our four day stay. Great area near restaurants, metro and the Vatican a comfortable walk with lots of wine and food stops along the way.

Close to metro.
Great host! Nice breakfast. Clean room and very nice. Good bed. We love our location. Very close to the Metro ( subway) it was pretty easy to get around. I would recommend this place. We toured around all day. It was nice to have a room to have close to get some rest.

I had a lovely stay at Le Scalette al Vaticano. The hostess, Elena, arranged for a car to meet me at the airport, and to take me to the airport at the end of my visit. The breakfast was simple - fruit, cereal, yogurt, bread or pastry. Nothing special. The coffee machine was great, hot chocolate every night! The area isn't bad. There's a good pizza place just up the street. I was in the city to visit the Vatican - the Vatican Museum is very close, maybe a 10 minute walk, St. Peter's Square is more like 20 minutes. Metro is around the corner if you want to visit other parts of the city, and the train station is close too. Room was very comfortable - including air conditioning! Bathroom newly renovated - shower only, no tub. Free wifi. I do wish there were light-blocking curtains, and it was a bit loud on the street late at night, but those were my only complaints.

Elena was helpful with any and all questions. Room was lovely, clean, decent size. Attention to detail was seen throughout the place. Breakfast was good, and I was able to use the cappuccino machine later in the day as well. Close to the Vatican and the metro. Highly recommend and would stay again.

comfortable and extremely clean B&B
I was very happy to have found this B&B. I felt like being at home in Rome. Elena gave me a lot of recommendations about good places to eat with affordable prices as well as information about tours, mean of transportation etc. She is a very kind lady who tries to give the best to her guests. She offers a very good continental breakfast. The place is so lovely and clean! and the bedroom was extremely clean as well and with all what you need. All is exactly as you see in the pictures. I really felt very comfortable! Thank you so much Elena! I totally recommend this place with an affordable price to stay in Rome. I would love to go again!

A lovely b&b very close to the Vatican and the metro Station , so it was very easy to navigate around Rome. Comfortable room but as it was my first time in a b&b I wasn't sure what to expect. Breakfast was nice but definitely expected a bit mor savoury staff as eating croasaints and cakes is not my idea of a good breakfast but nevertheless it was nice. The place is in a very quiet area and it is very easy to find your way around. I would definitely come back

Convenient B&B
Elena provided a lot a helpful information about the local area when I arrived. Her home-baked cakes at breakfast were much appreciated. As the crow flies, the location is quite near to the centre of Rome. But it is the other side of the Vatican, so walking to the centre of town entails a considerable detour! So it is best to use the Metro, which is very nearby.

Quaint B&B
Great Stay! This B&B is convenient to the train and within walking distance to the Vatican and surrounding area. Plenty of eateries and shopping within walking distance. Clean room and kitchenette area. Not a large space, but plenty of room for a stay. Private bath and A/C was a must -- both were great. The owner is VERY accommodating and provided excellent service. HIGHLY recommend and would definitely stay again.

Location and price
The location is pretty convenient, just two blocks from the metro station and near the vatican. The location does not appear to be good and perhaps a bit dirty, BUT it is actually very safe. I think this was EXCELLENT value for the money you pay; it included fast internet, rooms were a bit small but really clean and they provided you with a quick breakfast, enough if you are saving some money. The person in charge of the b&b was always helpful when we needed something. There is a parking garage in front of the hotel if you rented a car.

Great B&B close to the Vatican
I had a very nice several days at Le Scalette, it had everything I needed (breakfast, wifi, very clean room). It was conveniently close to a metro station (Cipro), with cafes and restaurants nearby. I did a Vatican guided tour and saw some other parts of the city recommended by the manager.
