Domus Alberico

Pros: Exactly as shown in the photos on the website; quiet, comfortable, great location (close to the Vatican, Castel Sant'Angelo, metro station, and bus station), walkable district, and easy check-in. Cons: Sometimes the network isn't good, and we can't open the apartment door smoothly.

Booked Domus Alberico for a weekend away and was pleasantly surprised. The previous reviews all indicated good value and comfortable accommodation and this is accurate. As other reviewers state Lorenzo has been amazingly helpful and booked everything we needed from taxis to restaurant recommendations which have been great. The room was comfortable and spacious. The bed is a bit too firm for our liking so did not sleep as well as usual. The online key takes a lot of getting used to and you are provided with lots of instructions. But wifi reception is not great inside. Front door is fine but we ended up having one of us wait near front door and other going ahead to wait at the door to the hotel and shouting press now!! It worked but with some hassle! Breakfast available from 8am to 10am is very average with lots of packets of crackers and cereals and basic cold meat and cheese and sliced bread for toast but lovely coffee. Helpful staff around to restock items. We were in a rush one morning and missed breakfast but they very kindly put out a tray for us so we didn’t miss out. Rooms are nice and modern but some things were a bit well used such as our handle to front door and light switches which were a bit temperamental. Feels like it needs some maintenance to overhaul. On the whole though quite good value for money. Very well located for Vatican city and not far from Pantheon and Spanish Steps. Would recommend and not bad value for capital city accommodation.
