This place was very clean and the owner very responsive always on point to any questions or to ask for taxi transportation to airport. It is a little hard to go to restroom outside of room but its private and it is very clean and spacious. The location is walking distance less than a block away to the vatican museum so very convenient. The owner also provided breakfast for guests. Overall nice convenient location.

If you need to leave your bags after checkout, keep in touch with hosts. They can keep your bags safely until you get back to get them. If you want some water, beer, or extra snacks, there is a convenient market. Don't expect a breakfast; only coffee, cereals and cookies.

The place is clean, it’s right behind the Vatican museum which makes it a great spot if you plan to visit it. We had problems with hot water for the shower. The staff couldn’t get there fast so we had to shower with cold water. It’s a shame because it was expensive.

Perfect location
We visited the Vatican and the location was perfect! It was also close to the metro to get to the train station. The bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen area were very clean and cutely decorated. The early check-in was also really appreciated. I would definitely stay here again!

The only plus to this location was that it’s one minute to the Vatican. Aside from that I had a poor communication with the owners. I messaged on sept 23 to advise my booking was wrong and that it was for myself and my two kids not two adults. This was messaged twice and okayed. When I arrived nearly a month later they told me after checking in it’s not ok and that I’d have to pay them cash which I did. Part was for a cleaning fee. I was then told the bed could only hold two people and had to advise I would sleep on the floor. Because it was the day of check in Expedia said I could only cancel if they approved it. They messaged me and said pay the money or go and noted paying the money would be better. Everyone knows what it’s like to have to find a room same day anywhere in the world. It’s truly made our experience worse not to mention there was only towels for two people the first day and only two for breakfast which we didn’t even eat. Items were packaged and what was not like the waffle cookies were stale. It’s unfortunate as the owners were accommodating to begin with and kind to speak to but made it a little unwelcoming as soon as I arrived.

Very clean accommodation next to Vatican
Very responsive host and an extremely clean home / room. We had booked it to be easy to get to the Vatican - this is good for walking but for car transport / Uber, the wait time may vary due to the crowds at the Vatican.

Steps from the Vatican
This is a well located property if you’re looking to stay near the Vatican. It is literally just across the street from the Vatican. Because of that, however, there is a good amount of tourist traffic in the area, which sometimes means lots of trash outside on the ground near the area. It did in this case. It was not noisy, however, and we felt safe in the area as well. Peter’s Basilica is walkable from here as is the Piazza Navona. Walkable being about a mile or so, so if you’re not up for walking slightly over a mile, I’d suggest taking the bus. There are lots of shops and restaurants within walking distance, and many forms of transportation are convenient from here; the bus, train, Uber. Check in was easy. Breakfast was so so, but it was nice that they offered it at all. I would stay again.

Great location in a quiet street
Conveniently located a stone throw from the Vatican, and an easy walk to the subway, it is located in a very quiet street. The room was very clean. The bathroom was adequate and offered a nice shower. Breakfast offered a choice of pre-baked goods, ham, cheese, fresh fruit, yogurt and beverages. Not close to fresh brewed coffee and home made goodies, but enough to get the day started! They are so many bakeries and coffee shops in Rome, that you can get your fix elsewhere!

We really enjoyed the one night that we stayed at this B&B. The room was gorgeous, the whole apartment was super clean and the kitchen was overwhelmingly stocked! It's proximity to the Vatican made it perfect to walk to many site seeing destinations. We would highly recommend this facility.

Lovely!
Vatican Keys is a lovely B&B no more than a 3 minute walk from the Vatican Museums entrance. The closest train station is a 7 minute walk, the bus stop 3 minutes. Restaurants nearby, some open late, and gelato is 60 seconds from your door. Our room was just as described...very, very pretty. The entire B&B is decorated with "love" in mind! You get your own keys to the building/B&B/room and your own bathroom (ours was across the hall). The bedrooms are spacious, and each have their own air conditioner and safe. There's warm/hot water in the bathroom/shower/bidet, and a kitchen for common use at any time of day. Great coffee! The kitchen is also fully stocked with pots/pans/utensils, breads, cookies and other breakfast items, and the refrigerator has everything from butter & salami, to milk, water & juice. There's a supermarket next door, in case you need anything else. But the most important part is Flavia. You'll have her cell phone number in case you need her at any time, and she replies right away. She helps with suggestions for dinner, transportation, and if you need tickets for the Vatican, she has a friend she can send you to. Because it was our anniversary, there was a chilled bottle of bubbly & chocolates waiting for us in our room. The only hiccup in our stay was that the a/c unit broke for 2 nights (very, long, hot nights!), but again communication was excellent, and the problem was eventually resolved. Free WiFi. Super cute B&B, you'll love it. :)

Fantastic b&b
Fantastic location for the Vatican museums, just steps away. Some lovely restaurants close by but best of all was the service and attention to detail. Flavia rang to make sure we were okay on route. She explained they layout of the B&B, which was an apartment with 3 rooms and a large shared kitchen. We stayed in the en-suite which was perfect, large bathroom with shower, the whole room was tastefully decorated. The breakfast was a huge choice of cereals, cakes, breads, yogurts, lots of jams and Nutella. All in all a lovely B&B and perfect for us.
