Good location - 10 minutes from the station in one direction (helpful for connections to/from the airport), and 20 minutes from the old town in the other direction (sightseeing and most restaurants). Bed very comfortable. B&B spotlessly clean. Plenty of hot water. Plenty of electrical sockets. The entry system (operated via WhatsApp without meeting the proprietor) felt complicated but worked fine on my nighttime arrival. Room cleaning and linen change arranged during my stay via WhatsApp - communication was good. Breakfast is prepared the night before, which is ideal for early risers like me. I would happily stay here again on another occasion. There are two decent restaurants opposite the station - Ristorante Gino and Trattoria Dorica.

No luggage storage available at the property, but I used https://radicalstorage.com/ and got a hotel opposite the station, so this wasn't a problem. More healthy options for breakfast would be nice (meusli or granola; plain yogurt), but the breakfast is pretty standard for accommodation in Italy.

The property was somewhat tricky to reach by foot but it was worth the effort. Once inside the B & B we found that it was very comfortable, clean and well-appointed. It took about 20 minutes to walk there from the station. It is at the top of a steep street that curves up from the main road. The footpath is narrow and in very poor condition. On entering the property from the street, there is one flight of stairs to the front door of the condominium and then another two and a half flights to the front door of the B & B on the first floor. The instructions about access were easy to follow and the proprietor was readily available on Whatsapp to handle any a questions. A very pleasant breakfast is served in the common area.

Very nice place - light and clean, with a separate kitchen and a nice bathroom. It's located a 10 minute walk from the train station, which is excellent if you're catching an early train. The part of town it's located in doesn't seem super fancy, but a 20 minute walk along the waterfront gets you to very nice pedestrian streets with lots of restaurants and cafés. The breakfast had a nice selection: some fresh fruit, some bread, butter, yogurt, etc. Lots of packaged sweets. Very nice and quiet AC, good shades that make the room nice and dark for sleeping.

There is a highway ramp right in front of the building, but the windows don't let any noise from it through. The shortest way to the waterfront is through an underpass, which isn't super nice. The check-in was done digitally, and passport pics were sent to some third-party company. There was some a multi-step instruction to get up into the apartment, which turned out okay, but felt a little bit stressful beforehand. If my phone had died it feels like I would have been in trouble.

It was very clean, quiet and nice! The bed is very comfortable, having air conditioning in the room makes for a very nice sleep! The bathroom is very modern and clean. You have a personal lock for your room which makes you feel very safe (as a female solo traveller I felt very secure). The breakfast has plenty of options - gluten and dairy free included - with a coffee machine that is easy to use! Honestly one of the best stays in my 5week trip so far! Would definitely stay again. Owner is lovely and helped me find my room! Had an amazing night, thank you.

A little bit far away from the city - maybe a 20minute walk. Other than that no issues.

A great location to explore the city from once you get orientated, we walked a lot -our choice - bus 2-3 mins down the hill & Tabacchi for bus tickets under long colonnade. Spotlessly clean. Comfortable bed. Good blackout shutter-blinds. Excellent coffee machine, pods supplied but use bottled water to prevent lime-scale. Self-service breakfast ok, a bit too sweet for us; a small supermarket is a few mins away. Vi-key access worked well to get keys to gain access. Outside stairs light switches on by red lit button near gate. A great place.

A most uncomfortable sofa bed to sit on, good job we were out and about most of time. No plug for sink, so felt like wasting water. Steep stairs for heavy luggage

Location location location! It was also very clean, the host was super helpful (although it was so well organized, that we never met him in person). Views were very nice for the whole Ancona port and the bay. Comfy bed, well equipped kitchen (shared).

A bit monotonous breakfasts, but as they were part of the room price - we cannot really complain :)

One of the best B&Bs I've ever stayed at. Easy check-in with a code that was communicated well in advance, along with all important things you need to know. The B&B is in a quiet residential area not far from the train station. The room was just lovely, with so many nice details and a huge bathroom. The kitchen/breakfast area had all amenities I could wish for. Would always go there again when in Ancona!

I'm glad I picked Roberto's place for my quick stopover in Ancona. I had arrived extremely late during the night, so late in fact that I was worried I wouldn't be allowed in. However, the host realised that my trip was delayed and made appropriate arrangements for letting me in when I eventually did arrive at 1am. I can't thank him enough for his foresight. I had no sim card at the time and therefore could not communicate with him. The double bed was extremely comfortable, and in an exceptionally clean state. The toilet and shower facilities were in working order: hot water on demand, and everything as clean as could be expected. In addition to breakfast set upon the counter, the kitchen featured a microwave, coffee machine and kettle. As a nice bonus, you can access Italian cable TV channels whenever you want. I would elect to stay at il Poeta sul Mare again if I ever have to stop over at this port town.

Perfect for a stop over in Ancona when travelling by rail - very clean , comfortable and a good breakfast provided.

Access requires codes which come by WhatsApp - but poor connection once in the building but not the actual apartment meant we couldn't read the required door code! Very helpful neighbour helped - write the code down before you go in!

The room is beautifully appointed and had a view of the Port and sea. It is easy to get to from the station. Great breakfast is made available in a shared kitchen. The host has thought of everything one could need for a short stay. The remote check-in process is very smooth and easy to follow. All in all an excellent location.

That we did not allow enough time to stay longer.
