This place was a dump!!!! The carpet leading to our room was filthy with stains, ALOT of stains! The room it's self was even worse. If you don't mind stained carpet, wallpaper falling of the walls, cigarette burns on the furniture and stained sheets than this is your place. We asked for another room and they showed us a bigger...

The hotel is a great base to explore Rome.The rooms are clean, comfortable and well decorated although the bathroom, and I can only speak for ours was beginning to look tired and in need of a refurbishment, that said it was clean and well stocked. The breakfast was OK however I would avoid the coffee,something that's hard to believe in... More

The hotel is located very near from the Train Station, in a calm street that ends directly in the beautiful Santa Maria Maggiore Church. Outside the hotel has the charm from the 20 century, (there´s also a plaque with the hotel history outside), but it as been submitted to several renewals inside. A staircase leads you to a small reception,... More

Bathroon needs to be renovated, moldy and toilet is terrible! Good thing for this hotel is location, 5 minutes walk to... More

We booked two rooms for our two teenage kids and my husband and I. The location was amazing! we walked all over Rome, we did not need taxis at all. The sites, and the restaurants around the hotel were within 5-10 mins walk and they were fantastic (we used the hotel's list of recommendation and loved them). As for the... More

My husband and I stayed there for 3 nights and it was a good experience. I guess the best part was that it was very close to the Termini Station. It's about 5-10 minutes walk from the station so if you were to take the bus or subway, it's very convenient. You can easily walk to the main attractions if... More

We stayed August 2012. Two adult and 3 teenage children. We had superior double and triple rooms. The styling of the hotel is weird - named after an 1930's Italian Cruise ship - public areas are styled in accordance with this and our bedrooms were also 1930's type furniture (slightly distressed). There are Apple macs strewn around public areas and... More
