We were totally welcomed and felt very relaxed. Our host was very attentive. The ambience of the outside area and our room was warm and comfortable. We were provided with everything we needed and helped with recomodation and advice with directions. The breakfast was generous, and the hot moka coffee appreciated. We arrived tired and blistered and left refreshed. We continued straight onto Via Francigena, though we would have liked to stay longer.

Tiziana is the best host we've ever met. She is welcoming, very friendly and helpfull. The terrace is nicely decorated with a lot of plants. The room is basic as we expected.

Having to leave it after only two nights’ stay.

Utterly charming, delightful place to stay in the heart of what must surely be one of the most exquisite of tiny ancient hamlets on the outskirts of Rome. The hosts are of a character to complement perfectly their house and its surroundings - generous, beautiful manners and immensely hospitable. This is a jewel of a place in every regard.

Nothing, this was my favourite place to stay on the VF by far

Solo traveller on the VF and this was the perfect location. Lovely terrace full of plants, large clean bedroom. Excellent breakfast spread offered in the morning. The host gave me the nicest welcome with cold water and fresh watermelon, and offered an amazing breakfast spread in the morning. I really would recommend you stay here either whilst on the Via Francigena or if in Formello for any other reason. Cannot recommend highly enough

I have nothing bad to say about La Scaletta.

Great hosts, clean room and bathroom and a great breakfast. I had to go to Rome for a day and stayed here as an alternative the day before, so I drove my car and stoped at formello to stay the afternoon and night with my girlfriend the night before, knowing that we were just 30 minutes away from Rome the next day. Would love to go back, I would recommend la scaletta to anyone.

it’s not that I didn’t like it but we did need help finding the place. once you knew it was great an near everything.

It was our own little casita surrounded with plants and flowers on the patio. there were lots of blankets if needed and even a iron if needed. The hostest was very sweet. wish we could have talked more to her, little English from her, no Italian from us. she even gave us some bus tickets.

Quiet and quaint place with great location in stunning old town. Good communication with hosts and easy check in with offer of drinks/coffee on arrival. Clean, comfortable, good wifi and nice breakfast. We were very happy and can highly recommend the accommodation run by lovely Tiziana and her husband.

You couldn’t sit in the bed without knocking the art work above so not an option. The ‚comfy‘ chair was very low so not that comfortable to sit in for very long. It was a bit cold in the morning and I would have appreciated breakfast inside rather than outside on the verandah.

The host was very friendly and welcoming although communication wasn’t easy as we didn’t speak each other’s language. She also helped me find a place for dinner and made reservations for me. The location was great in the historic centre of Formello. Bed and shower were good and I was warm on a coolish night. Internet worked well, too. Breakfast was really good and Jenny, the dog, excellent company.
