We stayed here on a long weekend visit to Rome, my 2nd time. Although we were slightly put off by the huge scaffolding outside which we never knew about, once we were inside everything was fab. Staff were lovely, rooms were cleaned daily and of a good size. The breakfast was amazing and plenty to choose from and we could... More

I have stayed here about 6 times. The hotel is located a block from the main train and bus station, Termini. Because of this it's the easiest location in Rome to find, and get in an out of. Some people might think the area is a little seedy but it's well-patrolled, has been cleaned up considerably, and I have never... More

Room is okay, small but clean and comfortable. Staffs, however, are terrible especially front staff on Sunday afternoon. He doesn't understand English and very rude. If you don't want to have a nightmare in rome, don't stay here! More

we stayed in this hotel during 1st week of Nov. Good staff. But century old elevator and below one star rated break fast and the ambiance is worth only for one star, though they say it is rated 3*. Location was very good. More

This hotel is a stone's throw from Roma Termini - perfect location. Reasonably good restaurants around. Close to the main Roman tourist attractions and shopping areas. Fantastic staff - very helpful who spoke Spanish and English in addition to Italian and even let us leave our bags at the lobby for a couple of hours after check-out! Comfortable, clean room... More

TO AVOID!! We maid our reservation via booking.com 2 months in advance. When we arrived they informed us that they cancelled our reservation because of problem with our credit card (without informing us, they had our tel & email). The credit card worked for the reservation in 8 other hotels in Italy during our trip. They offered us someone else... More

We picked this hotel because of it's location and it was indeed nice to be so close to the Termini for access to trains, busses, hop-on hop-off buses and lots of restaurants. The hotel was clean but in a very old building where the single elevator was slow and tempermental. The breakfast is simple but nice. More

Having read some of the reviews here, I was a little nervous when I was assigned this hotel for the school tour I was planning. On arrival though, I was very pleasantly surprised. This was a very well maintained hotel perfectly geared to our needs. Fire equipment was very well maintained, and rooms were clean and in good order. This... More

The Reception area is deceiving. Once you pass through the door to go to the run down hallway, elevator, etc., you are lead to a room with no remote for the T.V., no hot water to bathe, thin walls so you hear the people right next door, doors broken to the closet, and safe wires ripped out from the safe...so...

My husband and I decided to stay in Rome for two nights as we were on a transit flight. We’ve been to Rome before and thought we would take our chance by finding a hotel when we got to termini. The last min reservation counter helped us find this hotel and we were pleasantly surprised. The hotel has an old... More
