We arrived in Rome for 2 nights in October and then for another night prior to the end of our trip. J24 not only met but exceeded our expectations. Not only does it meet the minimum requirements, a comfortable and clean room, but also a generous host who does everything he can to ensure your stay is a great one. Everything in the room is modern and efficient. Great bed, shower, bathroom, A/C, spacious, and very quiet. Water is provided each day and there are sodas, beers, and teas available on demand for a reasonable price (same as the markets). Turn over service is also done each day, if desired. There's available Netflix and streaming options as well, though we didn't make use of it but it's a great option for those who desire it. The breakfasts were wonderful. Each day Davide made us scrambled eggs to go along with the selection of meats, cheeses, pastries, amazing cakes, coffee, and juice. We ate too much cake. But that's on us, not him! Davide even held our large luggage for 3 nights while we went down to Sorrento. This made our travel so much easier and it was a service I would have been willing to pay for but he did it for free. When we needed to have our clothed washed after my prior plans for this fell through, he recommended a place nearby that took care of it for us. He even provided maps of Rome and the area the B&B was located, which were very useful. The only potential negative is the location being further outside the city center. But honestly, this could also be seen as a positive as there's less foot traffic and it's much quieter. We prefer staying a bit outside the city centers. A bus stops right outside the corner and the metro is only a 10 minute walk away, so it's not in an inconvenient location. Davide was such a wonderful host and made you feel at home in his B&B. We didn't have any issues, but we know if we had one, he would have taken care of it right away. You really wish all hosts were as gracious as he is. I know if I ever find myself in Rome again, I'm staying at J24.
