Unbelievably friendly and warm staff who gladly gave expert travel advice and recommendations that only a Roman would normally be privy to. - Loic Diels

I LOVE this website and will gladly recommend it to anyone headed this way. Nothing disappointed us! - Mary-Iris Taylor

I have been using Cross-Pollinate for about 10 years now. The service is consistently great and I can always find just the kind of apartment we like, at the right price. - Hirani Himona

A really great idea - with a network of hand picked little rooms/guesthouses. If only we could have this in more city destinations! - Zoe Buck

I love Cross-Pollinate and every time we go to a new city I look to see whether they have some accommodations over there. - Arantza Aldea

The two places I have stayed at from Cross-Pollinate have been among the best across Europe. Highly recommended. - Nicholas Burn

Thanks a lot to Cross-Pollinate for the opportunity to experience a city as an insider! We really enjoyed our stay in Rome and Venice and look forward to more. - Tatiana Marchenko

Cross-Pollinate was very helpful when the owner of the B&B wanted to charge us for the baby under 2 y o. It would have been difficult without them since the owners did not speak any english. - Yulia Pichugina

This was our only stay with a C-P apartment and we were very pleased with the entire process. Will look to use them again on our next Europe trip! - Anthony Giglio

Great web site and quick response from the team a CP made the whole experience easy and hassle free. I have already recommended CP to quite of few of my airline industry colleagues and I'm sure they will make use of their excellent service. - Shane Pickles

Cross-Pollinate was extremely helpful! They found us a place to stay in our price range when many other places of business couldn't help us. - Sarah Seminutin

Cross-Pollinate was very easy to use, and it is so much better to stay in places like these than big corporate hotels; you get a much better feel for the place. - Kaspar Deane

Very straight forward. Well done. Definitely would use it again. Love these type of alternatives to hotels! - John White

Cross-Pollinate was fantastic and easy to use. We used Cross-Pollinate to book a room in Florence (the second leg of our trip), which was everything I thought it would be. We have recommended Cross-Pollinate to our friends. - Barbara Carlin

Cross-Pollinate are great - the descriptions are accurate and they are very responsive to questions. - Dominique Bayne

Cross Pollinate was just the best. I had tried a couple of places before coming upon them. As soon as I sent the first email I stopped looking for any more websites. I just wish they expanded to every city in Europe. Their knowledge, helpfulness, etc. was second to none. - Caroline Collis

Casa Cibella

Casa Cibella is a homey 2-room Bed & Breakfast in Monteverde, a residential neighborhood adjacent to Trastevere. The owner, Carla, split her apartment into two, and she lives on one side and has the two guestrooms on the other side. Each guestroom has a private ensuite bathroom (with shower), TV, and "breakfast corner." The breakfast corner contains a sink, microwave, mini-fridge, electric coffee maker, and dishes/silverware so that guests can prepare themselves breakfast at their leisure when they wake up (Carla leaves food and coffee for a light Italian-style breakfast). While there is no air-conditioning, each room has a ceiling fan so it stays relatively cool even in hot weather. The rooms both face onto the green, quiet courtyard of the building. The B&B is located in a residential neighborhood and has all the conveniences nearby, including an open fruit and vegetable market just around the corner, supermarkets, and shops. It is just a few minutes' walk from beautiful Villa Pamphili, Rome's largest public park. There are many bus stops in the area that will take you into the historic center in about 10-15 minutes, or it is walkable from Trastevere in about 15 minutes.

Terrill on May 2011:

	The room was lovely. Location was in a nice area, but distant from the attractions of Rome. The best thing was the owner, who was very kind and responsive to our questions and needs. She helped us figure out the bus routes and recommended eating and coffee places nearby.
	The included breakfast consisted of crackers and spreads in packages. Unlike Turkey and many other countries, Italy just doesn't have much for breakfast. But other lodgings on our trip offered fresh bread or rolls, fresh fruit, and packaged cheese or butter.
	I'm sorry, it was 19 months ago, and I don't remember about the listing or the booking experience and staff. That's why I left those blank.
