Vacanze Romane Bed & Breakfast

I liked that we were not sleeping in the street..

Where to start? Oh, I know...a non-smoking room means nothing if the owners dad is smoking non-stop in the room down the hall. Disgusting! And hey, you know what would have been awesome to wash off the stale smoke smell? Hot water! A little bit of hot water would have really improved our showers. A working hairdryer would have been nice too...just for the heat. Whatever, we're in Rome. Be happy right? We locked our room and went sightseeing, only to return to an unlocked room. Apparently the cleaning lady (owner's mom?) didn't feel the need to fully close or lock the door when she was done. Finally when checking out, we learned that the website information about accepting credit cards was inaccurate - good thing we had some cash on hand. It was also pretty hard to communicate with the owner's parents, who live on site and smoke a lot, to voice our concerns because they don't speak any English, and only a little French (the owner was only available at check-in). I must add that the bed was pretty comfortable but... Did I mention the smell of stale cigarette smoke in the air? If you; like the smell of stale smoke, enjoy ice cold showers, have no hair, leave your belongings unsecured, can speak Italian, carry enough cash and enjoy a comfy bed, this is the place for you!
