Parking: it is really a problem to find a parking place nearby, the closest parking place Park San Giusto was full, it took me an hour to find a free parking place. Location: on one hand, it is perfect for sightseeing and trips to the city, but the location has one big disadvantage - right underneath the bedroom window, a restaurant is located, with quite a loud music and even louder guests. Even closing the shutters and the window didn't help much. I assume it is more of a problem on a weekend than during the week, but nevertheless, it was disturbing (I understand that we were in the middle of the living heart of the city on a Friday night).

Initially, I was surprised to learn that I was about to share the apartment with the owner, but quickly found it inspiring, even fascinating. Marina is super friendly and supportive, she gave as some suggestions what to visit and when, based on the weather situation etc. We quickly found a common language, she explained what rooms are for our use. Her apartment is a beautiful type of a time capsule, filled with antiques. It provides a time travel back to the times of the Austro-Hungarian Kingdom and adds some extra fleur to the visit. Located in the very center of the old town, a lot of sightseeing locations are located nearby. When you exit the apartment, you are immediately surrounded and overwhelmed by the city heartbeat. Breakfast was lovely, servied in an old style eating room, using a bone China porcelain, with orange juice, fresh strawberries and freshly prepared coffee from the cafetiera. In addition, we got espresso as well. Bathroom with toilet was separated, for our use only, spacious, clean, luxurious. Tiziana from a shop at the entrance to the building was also a great help, deserves to be mentioned here.

We loved the property and it’s antique furniture. The bedroom and en-suite bathroom very big and clean. Marina, the host, is very nice and welcoming, gave us lots of good tips about the city which have been really helpful!!! The only downside is probably the noise at night as it is a buzzing area but as long as you close the window there is no problem. Room has AC anyway so all good!

The location is perfect. It’s on Piazza Borsa, a buzzing square in the heart of the city and within walking distance from the main attractions, like Piazza dell’Unita’, the cathedral and castle of San Giusto, Canal Grande with the San Spiridone and Sant’Antonio churches. It is also surrounded by some of the most famous old cafes, fantastic restaurants and bars where you can enjoy amazing and very cheap coffees and spritzes! Train station is also within walking distance and you can get a bus just opposite the station that takes you to Miramare Castle. You certainly do not need a car to visit the beautiful Trieste!!!

The only thing which some travellers may not like is if you have your windows open of a night there is a fair bit of street noise as bars and restaurants are below. It didn't really bother us too much and we kept them open all night for fresh air and still slept well. It kind of added to the vibe. Just something to keep in mind.

The location, room and facilities were fantastic. My wife and I were very happy with the whole experience. You basically have a bedroom with an amazingly comfortable bed, nice bathroom, a living room and a dining room all full of antique furniture which sets a lovely scene. The breakfast is a lovely daily pleasure you look forward to. When you walk out of the building you enter the heart of Trieste and the piazza. Whether you go left or right there is an abundance of restaurants, bars, cafe's and things to do and look at. The train station is an easy flat 10-15 minute stroll. Last but not least the manager Marina is a lovely person and is the perfect host. We are seasoned travellers and don't really require any help but it was good knowing Marina was there if needed.

The place is very beautiful, every peace of furniture is an art. It’s much better than a normal hotel.

maybe a bit more of food facilities, like a small microwave and mini frigo where we can put some fruits and own drinks.(maybe on the food area)..Apart from that...nothing to add.

excellent location and facilities, room is great, lots of spaces to keep your things...bathroom perfect.. lots of little helpful items ... helpful and friendly owner Marina, took good care of us, good conversation, great breakfast, w everyday one little extra surprise..to make the bkf bit different.. We were the only guests, only one room (not sharing w other guests) and freedom to walk within the flat, lots of charming "history-telling "decoration. Price is reasonable, compatible w surround B&Bs. helpful in all aspects.....easy to find place, handy position..(the lack of parking didn`t bother us as we were not driving, but lots of buses around..easy to walk around even without that)..quite safe area. (the train and bus stations are together) are about 1km from there by foot, it`s a busy area, ok to walk around during day time, not sure yet about late night time (we were told to be alert around square in front of the station (dark area, few "weird" people doing"whatever kkk!)..we had a great time!..(thanks Marina!)...

Leaving!!

Everything. Absolutely faultless stay in Marina’s beautiful home, for 6 days. Breakfasts were amazing every day with a wide choice, and my husband loved his espresso as well as a pot of coffee and a tea for me. The bed was super comfy, with a change of sheets and towels after 3 days. ensuite very luxurious. The bedroom, ensuite and lounge is cleaned every day. Location is superb with everything you need on your doorstep and an easy walk to bus and train stations. Marina is extremely kind, friendly and helpful. Multiple suggestions for activities, day trips and restaurants were offered. We have no hesitation in recommending Marina’s accommodation.

Piazza della Borsa is a very lively location, so be prepared for noise at night.

A great location in the lovely city of Trieste. Wonderful homemade breakfasts every day. Marina made us feel at home.

It is all perfect It is in the heart of the city and the host, Madame Marina helps you with your requests and is available to give you key information of what to visit and where to go to discover the place. The room is large, clean and with private bathroom!

The only disadvantage was the noise coming from the streets at night (but it was the weekend so it was expected, given the very central position) :)

Very friendly and welcoming host, beautiful and unique apartment, a nice room with comfortable bed, great breakfast and top location. I will definitely come back :)

It was quite noisy outside till very early in the morning both nights......but outside the summer period I imagine that would not be the case.

Location is excellent - in the middle of it all. Breakfast very good/more than enough. Very cozy sitting room to relax in apart from bedroom. Large/modern bathroom..

Marina is a wonderful and caring host! The apartment is placed directly in the centre of Trieste with bars and restaurants everywhere just around the corner. Marina offered a lovely breakfast in the mornings before we left the beautiful apartment to explore the city. Plus she had some great advice how and where to spent the time in Trieste (for example a boat trip to Castello Miramare). We had a great time at Marina‘s place.

The streets are too noisy to open the windows until very late on friday and saturday. It is a quiet room with the windows closed and airco on though.

Marina makes you feel very welcome at her place, which is very centrally located. She serves a breakfast with fresh eggs and fruit at your chosen time.

The apartment was shared with rhe owner. If it was spelled out on the booking. Com, we would never choose it. We felt like unwanted guests barely tolerated

Location, lift

Stayed in July 2023

This is a bed and breakfast. This information should be noted clearly on booking.com.. this location is not accessible by vehicle. It is located on a square that is only pedestrian traffic.The address needs to be much more clearly marked. A picture of the storefront where patrons enter would be most helpful.

Location and the host.

Rather loud outside during the night.

Great hospitality.
