About

Gelsomino B&B Apartment

Gelsomino B&B Apartment sits on Via Del Gelsomino, a 19-minute walk from the Vatican Museums and just 0.7 km from Valle Aurelia tube station. With a metro connection close by, you can move around Rome without depending on a car, and the property keeps things straightforward with self-catering studios and apartments.

The rooms are practical rather than fancy: both the Deluxe Double Studio and the Two-Bedroom Apartment come with a shower, coffee machine, heating and air conditioning, and the apartment adds a balcony. Every unit has a kitchenette with tea and coffee facilities, a washing machine, and the basics for cooking, so longer stays are easy to manage.
