The location is excellent. the owner gave good advice on local facilities, restaurants, bus service etc.
We had booked in the matisse for 4 nights, we spent 3 in another hotel, which was excellent. our fourth night was in matisse, we did not have a bathroom ensuite, the room was dowdy, and the bed unbelievably hard, most uncomfortable. on reviewing the web site of the other hotel we now know we were overcharged for our four nights. we would not return or recommend the matisse b&b but would recommend the other location.Turnbull

Roberto, owner, excellent. rooms very good. hard to get into.Unfortunately they made an error and only booked one room when we had booked 2. we were booked into hotel repubblica for one night which was disgusting, filthy and generally awful. this totally ruined our first night and experience in rome.WINWOOD

We were delighted with the location, and the attentiveness of the host at the hotel. we felt very well looked afer, and genuine concern about making our stay enjoyable. we stayed 2 nights, and then went to florence and were going to return to a different motel in rome, but decided to come back to matisse.

Very clean, very central, very helpful owner. good sized room and bathroom. 'tourist tax' not included in quoted price, which was easy to miss on the website, so cost 80 euros higher than expected. room very dark due to window being covered for work outside. breakfast buffet basic, but available 24hrs. jordan

Central but quiet position. manager very helpful. bedroom very clean.Booked superior en-suite room but room given was not as advertised being neither superior nor en-suite. as only there for one night we didn't want the hassle of finding alternative accomodation but would have walked out if our stay was for longer. "private bathroom" was across a corridor leading off the public lounge/breakfact area to another bedroom. cadogan

The owner, roberto, was extremely friendly and very helpful, particularly when i had a difficulty with the bank. he also gave us very helpful advice about where to visit and when and where were the best places to eat in the evening. the hotel was modern and very well located. our rooms were cleaned on a daily basis and it had good facitilies, both in our b&b, but also other matisse's which we had access to. needham

Roberto, the owner, was very helpful, and informative with regard to places of interest and directions to them.
the location was excellent, hotel room comfortable and clean. the all-day breakfast was much appreciated.There was a bungle with our booking, with the result that there was no room available for the first night. luckily roberto found us a room elsewhere in the same building in which matisse is situated. because it was their fault we were promised that night free (which did not materialise -we were merely exempted from paying the travellers' tax, which did not quite amount to the price of one night's stay).
we were also subjected to a chaotic departure. we had informed roberto that we had to leave a little earlier than the official check-out time in order to catch our train, but that morning roberto could not be contacted (although he had said he would be there). the receptionist was also not around. we were virtually evicted from the building by an irate, red-faced lady, the caretaker (?) of the building who insisted that we could not wait inside but had to wait on the pavement with our luggage. fortunately the receptionist of matisse arrived. she managed to contact roberto by phone, and we settled our account on the pavement, with no time to query the amount he quoted and no receipt given. thank goodness we had the cash. in the confusion and hasty departure we left with the room keys, which we had to post later from venice!

Great location, roberto is an amazing host, he goes above and beyond. -would need more info on how to gain access to the b&b. buzz in and wait for the staff to come and open the door for you.
-unable to pay with credit card, cash only.
-according to roberto & staff, it would seem that easy to book would have cancelled my reservation a few days prior to my arrival. i never made a request to cancel and i admit i got a bit nervous when i was told that. roberto took care of it and we ended up with a beautiful room with an ensuite bathroom overlooking via nazionalBurton

Our room was very quiet which ensured a good night's sleep even though we were very centrally located.Lots of steps up to our room. hotel is not that easy to find as it is within an apartment block.
