In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Exceptional central location — Steps from Piazza Navona and Castel Sant'Angelo, with Saint Peter's Square an 18-minute walk away. Most of Rome's sights are reachable on foot, and plenty of restaurants and cafes are nearby.
  • Quiet, well-equipped rooms — Rooms are described as quiet and immaculate, with tea and coffee facilities, flat-screen TV, fridge, and a work desk in some cases. Soundproofing was highlighted by a light-sleeping guest.
  • Warm and helpful staff — Guests repeatedly praise the staff for being kind, friendly, and as one review put it, 'helpful and excellent.' VIP check-in/out adds a personalised touch.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 21:00. Late arrivals outside this window may be a challenge, though the property offers VIP check-in/out.
  • Colosseum is a longer walk — While most attractions are within walking distance, a couple of reviews note the Colosseum is a bit of a hike from the property.
  • No on-site parking — There is no parking listed on site. Guests arriving by car will need to rely on paid airport shuttle or public parking, which can be a drawback in central Rome.

The bottom line

For travellers who want to wake up in the heart of Rome and walk to the major sights, Vicolo 22 offers a quiet, comfortable base with genuinely caring staff.
