Italy: The Bee Hive

Patrick, being the great travel agent he is, found us this incredible place to stay. It's called The Bee Hive.

This is the quote from it's website: "The most stylish and contemporary of Rome's budget hotels and hostels offering accommodation in private rooms, dorms, and self-catering apartments. Owned and run by Steve & Linda, an American couple who promote and combine style with substance through art, design, yoga, environmentalism and vegetarianism."

That pretty much sums it up. This couple from L.A. got sick of the rat race, moved to Rome and opened a SWEET place!

The first three nights we stayed in the apartment. That's Patrick opening the door. This is me getting in to what must be the tiniest elevator ever.

And check out the cute room! We did share a bathroom down the hall with 2 other rooms... but no big deal. We also had a kitchen and the sound of bells out our window. The price $70 a night! IN ROME!
