“Glatimia is an outstanding B&B very close to Ottaviano station and Vatican City. I recommend it without hesitation. If you want an ultra-clean, spacious, and extra-quiet room after a day in Rome, this is an excellent choice. Tina (by email) and Julia (during our stay) were really helpful and friendly. Breakfast was full and served in the room whenever you wanted between 8 and 10. Julia offered 'las bombas' — like a doughnut with Nutella inside... ask for it, you won't regret it!”

“Great location, close to Vatican City. The staff, especially Giulia, was an absolute angel: friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Breakfast in the room was excellent. I'd definitely stay again and recommend to all.”
