Several restaurants, bars, shops, and a grocery store are within walking distance. Check-in is from 08:00 to 20:30, and check-out must be done by 11:00.

“Star Of Rome presents a compelling value, a B&B-style stay housed in a conventional apartment building. I found its location quite strategic, offering both proximity to the Vatican and convenient bus lines into the city center. The staff's friendliness certainly stood out-making it an easy recommendation for budget-conscious travelers.”
