I am writing this for my friends as I had to fly home early due to a death. We had booked the double rooms with shared bath. We were a little worried about that but they said they never saw anyone else and it was all ok. They loved the rooms and the cafe was their favorite. I am so... More

Stayed at Millefiori Guestrooms which The Beehive manages. Really enjoyed our stay here - was like having our own apartment in Rome. Great value for central Rome. 5 minutes walk from the train station and easy to walk to all the main attractions.There are 3 bedrooms and 2 shared bathrooms (1 which is brand new) plus a big kitchen and...

Checked in late and everything went well. Francesca was really nice and showed us to our room in a building just around the corner in The Sweets. Room was very spacious, clean and the wi-fi worked well. The place is also very close to Termini Station which is really helpful. Also liked the amenities!

I've said this before: we feel like we have generous friends who live in Rome and are happy to have us come back... We have stayed in all the rooms except for the Sweets. Starting with the dorms, trying out the apartments, enjoying the private rooms lately with friends...We love hanging out and socializing with the other guests and staff.... More

I have to say I would heartily recommend the Beehive as a place to stay in Rome. I was travelling on my own so was really nervous about being in Rome (after visiting Venice and Florence) but this was perfect! Its about a five minute stroll to Termini so I found it perfect for getting everywhere (especially as I was... More

Very clean (although the white vinegar is organic and gives a good result, the smell is not too welcoming in the bathrooms). Nice rooms (with balcony in hotel suites) and modern common areas, easy location to get to via metro but surrounding district not as picturesque as more central rome. Service hit and miss. Question whether for similar price can... More

We stayed in The Sweets which allowed us to meet couples from Australia, England and Alaska. It was absolutely delightful, sharing travel experiences with then. In addition, the rooms are wonderfully furnished and roomy. It is so close to the train station and all other transportation that I cannot imagine staying elsewhere. They are very helpful in finding you places... More

First, let me apologize to Beehive owner Linda that my review of the Beehive is almost 6 years too late since my first visit and 2 years too late since my second. The Beehive was a welcome site after arriving alone on my first trip to Europe in 2007. I was a bit confused and frustrated when I arrived at... More

Last year (actually January 2012, not April), I led a class of 35 to Rome for several weeks and we used Beehive/ Cross-pollinate apartments (not their hostel). Steve and Linda, the owners, were absolutely key to making this trip a success. We wanted an experience where the students live and interact with Italians rather than the usual visit to see... More
