Il B&B della Mamma is a family-run guest house in Rome’s Nomentano district, one kilometre from Piazza San Lorenzo and a short distance from La Sapienza University. The area is residential and lively, popular with students and families, with bars and restaurants just steps from the entrance.
The rooms, ranging from 10 to 12 square metres, are designed for practical stays: all feature a private bathroom with shower, bidet and courtesy set, as well as air conditioning, a safe, an electric kettle and a flat-screen TV. Room types range from the single with a French bed to the double with separate beds, up to the double with a large bed, catering to the different needs of couples or solo guests.
The Italian buffet breakfast is included and is one of the strengths highlighted by guests, along with the convenient position for reaching both the historic centre and Termini station, about two kilometres away. The property’s garden offers an outdoor space to relax, while the proximity to the Policlinico metro station makes it easy to reach the city’s main attractions.
Il B&B della Mamma offers three compact room types, ranging from 10 to 12 square metres, all equipped with a private bathroom with shower, bidet, hairdryer and free courtesy set. Each accommodation includes air conditioning, a wardrobe, a safe, an electric kettle and a flat-screen TV, features that make the rooms functional for both short and extended stays, aimed mainly at those visiting Rome for tourism or study, given the proximity to La Sapienza.
The main difference between the room types concerns bed configuration and capacity: the Standard Single Room with French Bed is designed for a single guest, the Double Room/Twin Room with Single Beds offers the choice between two separate beds or an extra-large double bed, while the Double Room, with a large bed, is the most direct solution for couples. All rooms enjoy a view and are accessible only by stairs, as there is no lift.
The smallest of the three room types, designed for a single guest: 10 square metres with a French bed, private bathroom with shower and bidet, air conditioning and a flat-screen TV. A compact solution well suited to those travelling alone to Rome.
A flexible 12-square-metre room offering two alternative configurations: two separate single beds or an extra-large double bed, the only one of the three to offer this choice. A private bathroom with shower and bidet, air conditioning and a flat-screen TV complete the amenities.
Like the Double Room/Twin Room with Single Beds, it shares the 12 square metres, but here the large double bed is fixed, with no configuration alternatives: the most straightforward choice for couples. Private bathroom with shower, bidet, air conditioning and a flat-screen TV.
Il B&B della Mamma is an entirely non-smoking property with daily housekeeping, private or express check-in and check-out, and luggage storage available to guests. There are lockers, a safe, air conditioning and heating, while the marble or tiled floors add a well-kept touch. It should be noted that the upper floors are accessible only by stairs, as there is no lift.
Each room has a private bathroom with shower, bidet, hairdryer and free toiletries, as well as a wardrobe or closet, an electric kettle, a desk and a socket near the bed. The view from the rooms is one of the features appreciated by guests.
On the technology front, all rooms are equipped with a flat-screen TV and internet connection. The property’s garden offers an outdoor space to relax, and the Italian buffet breakfast is served every morning, making the stay complete without needing to go out for the first meal of the day.
