This hotel is very simple. It is extremely clean. When we first checked in, our room was small and we asked for a different room and were immediately switched...and they were very pleasant. The front desk was very friendly and helpful. There were a couple of crabby front desk people but I avoided them for the nice ones. The rooms... more

Reading some of these reviews surprises me. The room we (3 people) had was lovely. Seemed updated...hardwood floors, very large room for Rome, clean, full breakfast, etc. They arranged our car svc back to the airport (good price relative to other quotes). I would definitely recommend staying here.....perhaps check and see if there are recently renovated rooms vs. not and... more

The Hotel is fairly nice with great location next to the Vatican City, bus pick-ups which take you straight into the heart of Rome. Recommend bus #64 (make a left out of hotel, right on the major street, and pick-up right before the tunnel) which takes you right into Plaza Venezia in the heart of Rome – this can be... more

We booked this hotel as a secret hotel through lastminute. We arrived at 11.30 pm and the room we were shown into was a smoking room, was in terrible condition with damp on the walls and rotting carpet and it stunkkk of smoke. We had stated we were no smokers in our booking but obviously no one had taken notice.... more

Chose this hotel for its location, good next to Vatican. First room was dirty and tiny. Got moved to a lower floor where rooms had been redone. Lots of traffic in this hotel. Some staff nice, some not so. Lost our cameras here, so our memories are somewhat soured by the staff's lack of assistance. more

This hotel was dirty, dingy, and disgusting. We requested a King bed because this was our anniversary trip, and we got 2 twin beds, that were not set up next to each other. The walls had dirt and handprints on them, and the bathroom was rusted and dirty. To make matters worse, the staff was not helpful-we asked them to... more

We returned last week from a transatlantic cruise which ended in Rome. We stayed in Rome an addtional three days and it was excellent! Our hotel was the Star Michelangelo in the Vatican, three stars, large rooms, friendly staff and decent breakfast. It was a long walk to attractions other than the Vatican, but doable.The first day we took an... more

We stayed in this hotel in the middle of May. We booked 3 rooms. Two of the rooms had old carpet flooring and smoke smells lingering in the room (despite requesting non-smoking rooms). The other room had hardwood floors (nice), but an air conditioning system which worked at times and didn't at other times. The bathtub/shower was strange with the... more

Before traveling to Europe I went into trip advisor and it helped me out picking up the hotels that I was going to stay. This is a great hotel, next to the Vatican, not a luxury hotel but really clean and good service, A/C was fine also. If you like to walk it is a 15 min walk to Plazza... more
