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.

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).

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!!!

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, 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 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.

It’s incredible central and beautifully decorated. The bathroom is comfortable and big and the host is super attentive and welcoming. Breakfast was great and the coffee delicious.

While closing the shutters and windows keeps out most of the street noise, a very sensitive person to noise might still want to consider having earplugs with them.

The location was in the nerve centre of Triest. Marina the host couldn’t do enough for us. Every morning Marina would put on a beautiful breakfast . Marina was also helpful with buses and tourist information.

Although the accomodation is in the square. It was a little hard to find.

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!)...

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.

Location was city center. Marino is so generous and helpful. she went out of her way to provide me with a delicious and abundant gluten-free breakfast.  she even gave me an electrical adapter plug since I had lost mine. She provided restaurant and sightseeing recommendations.

Being in the centre of town there is plenty of noise from restaurants below, people partying till late at night and such.

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.

Leaving!!

We loved the central location, our delightful hostess and the delicious breakfasts. We had plenty of room and felt very much at home.

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 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.
