EuroCheapo review print this page

1 Step From Saint Peter is a hostel housed in a 1920's building. The establishment has high ceilings, polished original floors, enormous light-filled windows, cream-colored woodwork, and rates that are a steal for the neighborhood.

Rooms vary in size, from cozy singles to spacious doubles with mirrored armoires, sky-blue bed coverings, and clean tile floors. The breakfast area has a checkerboard tile floor, cushy white sofa, and big-screen TV.

Fredrich, the hostel's owner, is friendly and insists you take your own set of keys (with a €50 deposit). Other members of the 1 Step staff, however, seem to have a bit of trouble comprehending requests through the language barrier.

Tip: The mini-apartment on the rooftop is a true lover's nest. Along with a kitchen, bath, and enclosed solarium, it offers a lovely view. That and the bargain price of €130!

About the 1 Step From Saint Peter neighborhood

Located across the Tiber River, west of much of Rome, the Vatican and Prati are unquestionably majestic. St. Peter's Basilica is the focal point of the Vatican. It took 150 years to complete and is Europe's largest (and, arguably, most important) church. The Vatican is the world's only neighborhood that's also a nation. Set apart from the Rome of ancient ruins and trendy stores, the Vatican and Prati area is pleasant but not exactly what we'd call exciting. Tree-lined streets, wide boulevards, and newer buildings with ornate, manicured courtyards are the rule.

In addition to St. Peter's Basilica, Piazza Risorgimento and Piazza Cavour are top attractions. The area is two stops on the subway from Piazza di Spagna and within a five-minute bus ride of Trastevere, a picturesque hip neighborhood to the south. This is a great area to stay. Hotel rates are often lower, hotel rooms bigger, and nights quieter than in other central Rome neighborhoods.
