This guest house is situated in a first floor apartment that has been converted to multiple en suite bedrooms. It has an inner courtyard where breakfast is served and you can sit and relax. The courtyard is quiet and away from the hustle and bustle.
Wifi is a little temperamental.
Our room looked over the street and felt very traditional. Every morning when I opened the shutters I felt an urge to sing ‘ O sole mio’. Which my husband kindly asked me not to.
There is a lift from the landing but it is an unusually quaint old fashioned cage style lift with not much room.
The bathroom is large with a shower.
Why the Narnia comment you ask. Well our room was situated behind the 1st floor lobby and was originally accessed by a large door there. This was not in use and the wardrobe in our room blocked it. To access our room we had to go through a door which could be mistaken for a wardrobe if you didn’t know. It then opened into a spacious high ceiling room like a secret world.
The bed was comfortable but it had a memory foam topping which is a pet hate of mine. Although I didn’t notice any obvious issue with mattress I did keep finding myself roll to the centre. Perhaps I’m just used to an expensive one.
The location is good and accessible to all areas of Rome, whether you want to walk or use public transport.
There are several restaurants nearby including Andrea’s which is a nice place to relax after a full day walking round the sights of Rome.
Livia and Marco were very helpful with plenty of advice on where to go.
Unfortunately the only place to put bottles was on the floor below the shower. I hit my head a couple of times bending down to retrieve. The shower needs a shelf higher up.
Although I didn’t notice any obvious issue with mattress I did keep finding myself roll to the centre. Perhaps I’m just used to an expensive one.
The first impressions can be off putting as it is a large door off the street with several steps leading to a landing where the lift is. People with accessibility issues may have a problem.

I love how accommodating they were, let me drop my bags off and check in early. Made me really comfortable on my first trip aboard showing me a map of Rome and the best places. Breakfast was fabulous too!
My WiFi wasn't the best in my room however I didn't find this affected me too much.

We had a great stay at the guesthouse. The terrace was magnificent for enjoying the delicious breakfast. You can reach various bus and metro lines relatively fast, and there are a lot of great restaurants around the corner. The welcome and tips by the owner were exceptionally friendly and helpful in getting around the city. The room was very nicely decorated and clean. We highly recommend it!
The WiFi speed in our room was quite slow, so better use a mobile connection if possible. Also, the doors are relatively narrow :)

A lovely guesthouse with a clean and quiet room, centrally located, very good breakfast and super nice hosts. Would definitely recommend!
My only minor complaint is that the bed was super hard, but it hardly drags down the overall impression.

Great apartments in great location with delicious breakfast, I enjoyed staying there.
Also, hosts helped me to find a quiet place for work, that's the national library.

I loved the guest house owners they were super nice. It is also near a main metro and train station easy to go back to airport just by walk to the station. There are many restaurants to eat around as well.
Nothing but there was a small chance I might miss the check in time...check in times are sometimes impossible to stick to because we never know how an airplane would get delayed or what other factors might be around to cause a delay

Livia and Marco welcomed me very kindly and gave me information and recommendations regarding public transportation, sightseeing, restaurants, etc. They were also available in Whatsapp for any kind of questions.
The room was very clean.
Thanks to its central location the guest house is perfect if you do not have much time to visit Rome. Also the Guest House is located in a very safe area. As a woman travelling alone, I felt safe in this area.
I would definitely book again a room at Babbo Guest House when back in Rome.
Grazie Livia e Marco!
Nothing I did not like. I had a pleasant stay.

Small and friendly much better than a faceless branded hotel. Delicious breakfast served each morning. On a great street just outside the main tourist areas with quality and inexpensive restaurants along it, lots of locals eating in these, always a good sign. Hosts provided us with an excellent map pointing out the best directions to walk. Fabulous will be recommending to family & friends.
Nothing I can think of

The accommodations were excellent and the hosts/owners went the extra mile to help identify key areas to explore in the city while I was visiting. As well, the included breakfast was amazing! Would highly recommend their accommodations in the future.
There was some minor miscommunication about check-in time but all was resolved in a timely manner.
