Stay if you are desperate for cheap accommodation
Cheap accommodation with bathrooms. 5 mins to coliseum. Plenty of buses to everywhere. Good and cheap food just across the street. Good water pressure in the bathroom. Check in is easy. The crew was waiting for us to ring the bell at the main door. Room was big. Soft bed. Not to our liking. Noisy and busy surrounding. Lousy sound proofing. Couldn’t sleep at night/keep waking up intermittently. Terrible toilet spaces. I’m not sure if Italian are this small. I will upload a pic for this Smurf shower.

HI. We are in Via Cavour in front of the FORI..., some rooms overlook the street, there are a lot of people by the day and by night. You didn't open the shower all the way in the photo, you only opened one door. There is another door. Thank you

We stayed on level 2 ,we had to drag our 25kg bags to level 2 as the lift wasn’t working.We stayed 4 days and our bed linen or towels were not changed once. The manager we saw once when we arrived by sheer luck so we couldn’t confront him about the issues. Our room also smelled of cat piss .Terrible room , service and conditions,hardly suitable for hire.

Good evening. We were never able to get into the room because you had stuff everywhere and your bathroom was in terrible condition. That's why everything remained dirty because you were messy. Thank you

Convenient location but worth a second thought
Parking was a mess in Rome. I would not stay downtown again if I had a chance to do it again. Plus, the thieves stole our backpack the first night. Stay outside of downtown and taxi to where you want to visit. It's not worth staying close to the tourist attractions.

The location is amazing, very short walk to the Colosseum, we could actually see it if we poked our head out our room window! Safe area with heaps of food options day and night. Wifi was an extra 3 Euro for our stay however was very strong which meant we could videocall family and upload all our photos with no hassle. Really cannot fault the property. It was perfect for a 3 night stay for us.

We had a great trip, the lady who welcomed us to the hotel was very friendly and helpful with how to get to the rugby match, and recommendations of the local area. Beyond that, we had no problems with the room. The shower was very powerful and hot, and location is perfect, 5 mins walk to the Colosseum.

Nice, affordable hotel in a perfect location
The room was clean (someone came in to make the bed each day), relatively basic but a really good size for the two of us. The shower cubicle is quite small but you can't expect too much for the price! The staff are extremely welcoming and are happy to answer any questions (we asked where would be good to eat in the area). What sets this hotel apart is the location - barely a 5 minute walk from the collessuem with good transport links elsewhere in Rome. Definitely recommend you stay here!

great location near the Roman Forum and Colosseum
Overall our stay at the Bundi House was great! The house is just steps away from the Roman Forum, and a short walk to the Colosseum and Piazza Venezia. Diana was absolutely great with sharing all the information at check-in (note extra cost for wifi, and tourist tax). The rooms were big, our room had a double bed and a single bed, which was enough of space for 2 people. The little street our window looked out onto could get a little loud at night with all the restaurants and bars, but a pair of ear plugs work just fine.

Due to our activities sleeping on twin beds was easy. New bathroom had one towel bar but two hooks. Small shower,no lite. Who wastes space today on a bidet? Little room on sink for "stuff." Expected no wash cloths or shampoo, brought my own.. This was not the hotel I paid for in advance, St.Anna was the hotel I paid less for,Hotel.com booked me into the Bondi as they had me booked into a hotel in France, so refund me the extra amount that I just got billed for.

Helpful and friendly staff!
One of the airlines lost my baggage during the earlier part of my Europe trip and the hotel staff (Diana) assisted to receive it on our behalf (rather than us waiting in the hotel room for it). Diana also patiently explained and guided us throughout the check in and recommended sites for us to visit. They also helped us print boarding passes and booked transport to the airport.

Great stay at San Daniele Bundi - perfect location
The San Daniele Bundi is in a great location, close to the Colosseum of course but also some great places to eat, bars, all the sight-seeing bus stops and other attractions. We were greeted on arrival by Mikayla who was really helpful, and had fantastic local knowledge. Check-in was really straight-forward so we could start enjoying our holiday straight away. The room was fairly small, and as two girls we had a lot of stuff! The bed was also quite hard, which I found a bit uncomfortable at times. However, the room has air-con, a lovely clean bathroom, wardrobe, desk, mirror, tv, and a fridge so we were perfectly comfortable. In the communal area you can help yourself to toiletries, hairdryer, umbrellas and mugs/cups - a really nice touch. The shower was temperamental, often running cold without warning, but other than that we had a really pleasant stay. San Daniele was one of the cheapest places in Rome to stay when we booked, and it is really good value for money.

Mixed Feelings
The location of the hotel was fantastic. Walking out the door and looking to the west was the Curia of the ancient Forum of Rome only a block away. How good is that? However, the hotel itself would have been hard to find without a knowledgable taxi driver. There was a very small house sign on the side of the building which was not discernible from across the street. The cabbie had to phone someone to let us in as we arrived after the normal business day. The elevator was a bit challenging as two sets of doors needed to be closed before it would respond to a call. The room itself was small with a shower that challenged one's ability to manouver and the noise from the street below was rather disturbing. Essentially, this is simply a modest pensione that has shaving soap and hair driers in the hall with a very small fridge in the room but a larger fridge in a common space in the hall as well. In short, the price was right given the location, but probably wouldn't stay there again.

so close to the colosseum and roman forum!
the receptionist was very friendly - i only ever saw her as luckily i didn't need anything! the rooms in this guesthouse are a little basic and could do with some upgrading - the bed wasn't the most comfortable (although i find a lot of mattresses uncomfortable so it could just be me!) and my room was very, very small. but it has a bed and a decent bathroom so if you're only using it as a base it is perfect! and what a base! this guesthouse is literally around the corner from the colosseum and the roman forum. it's not too far to walk to all the other main sites in rome such as the pantheon, trevi fountain, the shopping districts, etc. it's fairly close to termini and also around the corner from two metro stops. it only takes about 45 minutes to an hour to walk to the vatican too and the weather was perfect when i was there so it was so nice to be within walking distance of it all. there's a few good restaurants and street food places close by too. so the location of this place was simply perfect. i had so much fun in rome and would definitely recommend this guesthouse for someone looking for a simple room in a perfect location. my only gripe is that i only had one pillow!

Visit to rome
Pros: great location! We were able to walk everywhere. The 2 gals that run the "hotel" are very kind and helpful. WiFi worked great (it costs €1 each day). Cons: this not a hotel. This is a hostel with a bathroom. The staff is there for 8 hours during the day. There is no reception desk. So somehow I missed what this place really is, I like to stay in hotels. But, if all you need is a place to drop your head at night, it would be fine.

Fantastic Location and Owners
Staff went out of their way to assist and the location absolutely fabulous. Not a high-end hotel in terms of amenities, but clean and safe. However, it certainly is a 5 star location for sightseers. Located within 5 a minute walk are the Colloseum, Roman Forum and metro station. Trevi Fountain is a 15 minute casual stroll. However, you can take 1 - 2 hours getting there if you stop at all the points of interest along the way. An awesome walk by any standard. If you are in Rome to see the best sights easily and efficiently, just stay here. On the same block as the hotel, there is a gelato shop, 2 delis that also sell pizza, 4 very good and affordable restaurants, etc.

Great 10 day Rome vacation
My wife and I (both Senior Citizens) stayed for 11 days and our purpose was to exclusively fan out and walk from a central spot and see and feel ancient and medieval Rome, the Vatican, etc. (First trip to Italy following a 10 day Portugal tour.) San Daniele Bundi House is ideally suited for this thanks to it's location (2 minutes to the Roman Forum, 5 minutes to Coliseum, 30 to 45 minutes walk to other farther sights with lots to see in between.). It is actually a group of rooms within an apartment building sort of like a Bed & Breakfast without the Breakfast part. The room is small but adequate for sleeping after walking upwards of 5 miles everyday. The bed was OK and the view from the room looked out into a typical Italian court yard... it was incredibly peaceful, quiet, and we felt safe. The room and bathroom were cleaned daily and towels changed every 3 days. There was also a small refrigerator in the room for keeping beverages cold. The manager/staff were very courteous and helpful. Overall, San Daniele Bundi House was a good value relative to its prime location (in the evening we could just have dinner on the same block and walk or sit around and enjoy the sights and sounds of Ancient Rome at night). We enjoyed our stay tremendously. We suggest the Gelateria several doors to the left for great Home Made Ice cream and the "Pizza & Mortadella" store/eatery further down for great Pizza and beer .

Great location!!!!
Great location!!!! It's on a main street surrounded by ancient ruins and restaurants, but the hotels are located in the back that it's quiet at night. 3 euros for WiFi for the whole stay. The hotel office is only open from 9:00am-3:00pm :( When we looked for them at 2:45pm, they were already gone for the day. When we looked for them at 9:00am, they still hadn't come in. Maybe they were culturally lazy, I am not sure. Whatever you need to ask or resolve, ask when they showed you the room on the first day. The hotel was supposed to change towels every 3 days, but they never changed any towels for 5 entire days we stayed. Could have requested them to change towels but we were out sightseeing when the office was open.
