REVIEW: CHEZ TOI IN VATICAN




It is undeniable that the accommodation in Rome are expensive. When we were planning for our trip to Rome, one of the challenges was deciding on where to stay. Choosing your accommodation in Rome depends on several factors: budget, objective of the trip, time of visit, and where you are coming from or heading to. If you are thinking of having a relaxing and convenience trip, I recommend you to stay in Chez Toi.

Chez Toi is an apartment which can stay a maximum of 8 people.  There's 2 rooms in the apartment. On room which has a queen size bed and two single beds. Meanwhile, the other room has 1 king size bed and a single bed. Of course there's also a kitchen and a bathroom connected to the living room. It's a great place for a group of friends or family planning to stay in Rome for few days. Below are some pictures about Chez Toi during my stay with my friends.


Room 1: A queen size bed with 2 single bed
The rooms  literally are designed to feel like home. The beds are comfortable and new which add extra bonus to the apartment. 



Room 1: Single bed, Television and Cupboard


Room 2: King size bed and a single bed



Room 2: Small Television and towels are provided.


The bathroom
 I am surprised that the toiletries and washing soaps are provided. One unlucky thing that me and my friends encountered was there was no hot water when we showered. Furthermore, the toilet was always flooded after we shower. However, we complained to the owner of the apartment and they apologised to us many times. I believe that they will fix these problems soon. 


The small living room


 Free WiFi is provided. Although the website stated that the apartment is air-conditioned, I think the air-con is not so strong. As we went is the beginning of the summer, there's still some cold breeze from the outside so for us air-con was not essential. 


The kitchen which has most of the kitchen essentials and a small dining table
 I love the way they arranged their stuffs. Pots, pans, plates, bowls and cutlery are all provided. They even provide us some fruits and frozen food in the fridge.


Tea and Coffee are also provided. 

Stove and Oven are provided. Perfect to heat up take away food. 

A good thing of staying in Chez Toi is the proximity to the train station. The nearest station is the Cipro station which takes about 5 minutes walk.  It's at a strategic place as it is about 10 minutes walk to Vatican City. If you and your friends are on a budget trip, I think Chez Toi is one of the places that is reasonably-priced. Moreover, there are also many shops and restaurants nearby the apartment. It is convenient for us especially when we are hungry during the midnight. I would also recommend the Chinese Restaurant nearby the apartment. They also provide take away services. 

Overall, my stay in Chez Toi is brilliant. I feel like home when I am at Chez Toi as they had provided everything. The apartment was clean and well maintained. One last thing the owner is also friendly and approachable.
