Rhona's Rooms

The staff were wonderfully friendly, service was great, and our room was kept spotless. The air conditioning worked really well and wasn’t blowing straight at the bed, so we could leave it on overnight without getting cold. We also had a free minibar stocked with plenty of things, which was handy, perhaps it was meant to make up for the room without a window. That room was the hardest part of our honeymoon stay. The listing and booking details didn’t make it clear there’d be no window, and as someone who’s a bit claustrophobic, I found that difficult. We managed to open a door within the door, and opening a window across the corridor let in some daylight, though people walking past kept peeking in. It was also pricey for a windowless room. At least there was no traffic noise, but we heard plenty from the corridor and next door. The room was cramped, too. The bed had oddly sharp metal legs and corners, and I caught my toes and scratched my legs on them several times. And although it’s described as a “bed and breakfast,” there wasn’t any breakfast. The location is fantastic, on a well-known street lined with all kinds of luxury shops and very near the Spanish Steps. If you’re going, watch Roman Vacation with Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn beforehand. Several movie scenes were filmed within a few minutes’ walk. There are loads of good restaurants nearby as well.
