Villas in Lazio, Italy

I chose to stay here for three nights in Rome. The guesthouse's transportation is quite convenient; bus 71 is right across the street, and it seems to be a main route in Rome, reaching many major places. Bus 492 is also nearby, so with these two bus lines, you should be able to travel around Rome easily. The hotel environment was good; it was quite impressive upon check-in. However, after staying continuously, I noticed some shortcomings, making it feel more suitable for a one-night stay. On the second day, housekeeping only tidied the bed sheets; the bath towels I'd left on the floor after showering the previous day were just rehung and not replaced. I didn't realize this the first time and even picked it up to dry myself again, only to find it was dirty on the third night. Whenever I returned from sightseeing and opened the door to my room, there was always a toilet odor. The soundproofing isn't great. Many guests start packing their luggage before dawn to catch early trains, so the noise was a bit loud and affected my sleep. The guesthouse has a communal kitchen with a coffee machine and even fruit (though not very fresh). There was a bottle of drinking water on the first day, but none on the second. There's a large supermarket right next door to the guesthouse, which is super convenient for shopping. There's also a slightly smaller supermarket across the street. So convenient! The guesthouse offers luggage storage after check-out.

Nice view over there in the castle like property and beautiful environment for the tranquility in the village. Yet, it took me about two hours to reach there from the train station by walking (late arrival by giving the credit to the silly European airlines operation), and it costs me $35 euros equivalent to get out there to the train station by FREENOW (European Uber). All in all, nice place, bad transportation unless you have a car ready.

一個比較老的建築物改成的酒店，酒店門口非常隱蔽，不看google map圖片都找不到的並且大門都打不開，需要有人來才行，我們到的時候是晚上7點多，等了一夥兒酒店前台才來辦理入住，超過晚上8點辦理入住還要付30歐，超過半夜2點需要付50歐，對於行程不太確定的謹慎選擇吧，ps裏面的電梯非常老舊 不過地理位置還可以，去最遠的梵蒂岡 鬥獸場都是公交車30小時內，西班牙台階步行10分鐘左右可達

Nadia was amazing to be in contact with. The castle is an amazing historical place. High ceilings, well furnished and made us feel we were at home with the details they thought of. This is a place away from the city, hustle and bustle which is nice to get away from a busy day of sightseeing. So you would need a car. The train station is 3 mins drive, so we did park and ride which conveniently worked out. The castle also has a pool which we made use of everyday aft the hot days in Rome. All in all we are very happy with our stay and wish Castello de Luca continued success.

Location carina e struttura carina. Ancora ha lavori di perfezionamento così in qualche caso si deve parcheggiare di sotto e fare la salita a piedi con le valigie. Peccato le unità siano divise con minima o alcuna insonorizzazione quindi se si hanno vicini nottambuli e poco educati che arrivano dopo mezzanotte il soggiorno da tranquillo può diventare piuttosto stancante. Tanto vale dormire vicino a Termini 😉

Fantastic stay at Villa Aurora rooms whilst I was in Rome. My room was clean, comfortable, and well-furnished. Fully functional air conditioning (rather than those temperamental units in other places) really was a joy to come back to during the heat of a Rome summer. But so far, I've just commented on some features of the room, rather than my experience here. What will endure in my memory as I look back was the warm, classically no-nonsense Italian hospitality I had from Donatella. Throughout my time here, she made sure I was well looked after with room cleaning, bottled water, towels etc. But I most appreciate her assistance in terms of local knowledge. Local knowledge such as a good seafood restaurant , ”Trattoria del pesce” just down the road (which happens to also be in the Michelin guide); such as to not miss out on the Baths of Caracalla; and perhaps more trivially, but arguably also essential, where to do my laundry! Thank you so much for making my stay here such a pleasure Donatella, and for adding both a new Italian word and outlook to my vocabulary - ”tranquilo”.
