During our journey from Germany to Southern Italy, we were looking for a place to stay in Rome. Casa Caterina turned out to be a very good choice. Located near the highway in a quiet neighborhood, we easily found free street parking in front of the B&B. Cleanliness is a priority at Casa Caterina - this is already demonstrated by the "cleaning cupboard", where fresh cleaning cloths are neatly lined up waiting to be used. Nice apartment on the 2nd floor of a well-kept residential building. Fair price. One small drawback: a very basic breakfast without fresh bread, fruit, or cold cuts, but Italy is not exactly the mecca of lavish breakfasts and at that affordable price, it's okay. In some other reviews, the kindness of host Ottavio is highlighted. I had already cleared everything with him in advance. Good, clear communication. However, during my stay, he was not in Rome and had asked his father to stand in for him. Here it was evident that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. The father was also extremely friendly and helpful. We asked, among other things, if he could recommend a good pizzeria nearby. He couldn't, but immediately called Ottavio, who was able to give a good tip: Pizzeria "Pizzando Grilliando" in Piazzale Jonio 39, easily reachable on foot. The father offered to drive ahead of us to guide us there by car. It wasn't necessary, but it was a very kind offer. Top. Casa Caterina will definitely be included in my list of recommended accommodations. I will gladly contact Ottavio again on my next visit to Rome.

The answer from the host:
Ciao Tobias, grazie per la recensione dettagliata, sono molto contento che hai gradito il soggiorno nel mio B&B. Spero di conoscerti di persona la prossima volta, così ti offrirò una super colazione personalizzata. Auf Wiedersehen.
