This hotel was an excellent location for walking to all the major sites around the city. The breakfast was in a local cafe, but perfectly adequate, if a little limited. The room was very comfortable, clean and quiet. But there was no kettle to make a drink. There was a lift for getting to the fifth floor. It felt safe and secure and there was a safe in the room.

The property was clean and the staff was very nice. Had a good breakfast to start the day. Our room did not have A/C and Rome was warm the week we were there. I do believe that the hotel has rooms with A/C. It wasn't too bad seeing how the evenings were cool. I didn't catch her name, but the woman at the desk in the evening was very helpful. She brought ice up to our room when my wife fell and twisted her ankle. During the day, Rosanna was also helpful getting us going in the right direction to see the sights of Rome.

The breakfast was so good and very fresh - the service was fabulous. The hotel location was great! People at the front desk were very kind and very helpful. Many options to eat very close to the hotel. Only suggestion I would make is that each room had tissues to blow your nose.

There was no air conditioning so was a bit warm and had to leave window open so lots of city noise. The elevator was nice to have. Step into shower was 12-16 inch up. Was ok but could be difficult. Not sure of her name but a woman working Siri g day recommended best restaurant we ate in during this trip.

Good stay

We stayed in a large room with a tiny bath and were very comfortable. Breakfast in a small restaurant 2 blocks away was nice -- croissants, coffee, bread, cheese, yogurt and juice. After a few days we paid extra for omelets to get a little protein and variety. Very nice neighborhood with good restaurants just half a mile from the Roman Colosseu.

This property was perfect for getting around to the Colosseum/Roman Forum, and also to the Trevi Fountain/Pantheon as it sits close to both. We also we able to walk from the train station as well even though with luggage wasn’t ideal. The breakfast was good and the staff were very nice. It is in the city so expect noise outside and could hear people in the hallway fairly easily. Overall we really enjoyed that we stayed here because of the ability to get around.

Incredibly friendly staff. The area is pretty strategic for basically whatever you want to do in Rome. Room was clean felt safe as well. The only thing I wish was better was the Wi-Fi it was pretty slow. if I could give 4.8 Stars I would.

We had a great stay here. The room is spacious and gives you a real Rome feeling with the furniture and exposed brick ceiling. Grateful to have been on the bottom floor as the stair case up is quite windy. A staircase we climbed many times to enjoy the beautiful patio up top. The down side to the bottom floor room would be the sound of vehicles right by the window but I do believe all ground floor rooms in Rome may have this same issue. The bathroom is clean and everything worked really well. The location is great for walking and I cannot say enough great things about the included breakfast. The breakfast is at a small restaurant down the street and the food was always served fast and fresh. Note it’s a set menu but we enjoyed it all 5 mornings and the money saved was an added bonus! The staff were all so incredibly helpful weather we needed to borrow an iron or our hair dryer wasn’t working, they even called us a cab at check out! If you want a great authentic Roman experience this is a great place to stay I would absolutely stay here again.

Certainly Overpriced and Overrated

I might have just been unlucky, but the whole stay felt off from the start. Even though I got a booking confirmation within minutes, when I arrived over three hours later the receptionist claimed they had just received it and made me wait another 10–15 minutes. The room wasn’t what I booked or anything like the pictures. It was bigger, yes, and clean, but that’s about all the positives. The wardrobe was tiny, barely enough for one person, (picture on this review) completely unrealistic for a room sold as “triple.” The bathroom was clean but cramped, with a low overhead shower that’s awkward unless you’re under 1.76m. Breakfast was a joke. Advertised as a “continental breakfast,” but all you get is: one orange juice, a yogurt, two slices of ham, two slices of cheese, two slices of plain white bread, one croissant, and a coffee or cappuccino. That’s it, anything else costs extra. Wi-Fi didn’t work, TV didn’t work, and since the building had no mobile network coverage, I was basically cut off the whole time. Staff kept saying it was temporary, but after five days nothing changed. The reception building next door had working Wi-Fi, management couldn’t even bother with a €90 extender to cover the guest rooms. Staff were kind and the place was clean, but that doesn’t make up for false advertising and poor service. For the price, absolutely not worth it.
