BnB from Hell
Terrible terrible experience! It's a BnB and it's very much run down. No upkeep at all with scratches all over the walls, faucets that don't work and everything is just worn and old. Also, if you arrive after 9:30pm be prepared to wait on the street for at least 30 minutes while they come from somewhere else to open up for you. And you'll be charged 20 euros per hour for arrivals after 9:30pm. (their website says free late check-ins). Manager is very rude too. Just do yourself a favor and stay away from this place

The room we were in was great, a big room with a Queen bed and 2 singles as there were 3 of us, was roomy. Airconditioning was awesome as it was mid summer and very hot outside. Staff were friendly and helpful. Close to Trevi Fountain and lots of shops, restaurants & transport very convenient. Lovely stay. Thank you :)

Our bathroom had a sewer smell that was very unpleasant. The ventilation fan made the bathroom heat up quickly. As this was a separate bathroom (outside of the bedroom with a common walkway), it made it very hard to cool down or air out the smell. There was no mirror in the main bedroom, which required getting ready in the bathroom (which as noted above was not pleasant). Besides this, the staff were lovely and the hotel was in a great location.

I shouldn't trust the review score. After encountering ridiculous issues at this hotel, I checked the reviews and found everything was mentioned before. And I may find the reason is the manager only cares charging guests extra fees and cutting costs wherever possible 1st, The cleanliness makes me keep feeling disgusted whenever I think I have slept there, and this also made it hard to get asleep. Multiple hairs on the bed once I arrive, which made me doubt whether they have changed the sheet. Also manager, there is so much waste under the toilet rim. Can you please spend some money to hire someone to clean the toilet not only in the most visible areas? 2nd, You can not arrive after 9:30pm. The late fee is 20 euros/hour, but the hours does not depend on you, but depends on when the manager will arrive! So if he is delayed, be ready to pay 100 euros to just get in. I arrived at 10:05pm and called the manager, he said "you have to type in expedia you accept the late fee, otherwise I won't come". I typed but he could not see, so I waited 1 hour in the unsafe dark. When he arrived, he charged me 40 euros because he was late for 1.5 hours?! I had no choice at that late. 3rd, the hotel is in disrepair. The manager and I entered the room and the toilet bowl kept running water which was really noisy. He refused to change the room. I can not get asleep, until 2-hour waiting outside at next day noon for repair. And no compensation!

Cons- I was very disappointed with the hotel overall, and felt that it is not worth the approximate $200 a night we paid. To begin with, our room was poorly lit...we barely had any light. The bathroom was old and dirty...hardly any shower pressure...and a lack of hot water. The worst part was that the air conditioner didn't seem to work properly. The hotel itself is old, poorly maintained and falling apart, it could use a paint job, and definitely some major renovations especially the bathrooms. Pros- The employees I did come across were kind and quite helpful. We met the manager as we checked out and he was so nice, very helpful and gave us some great tips about our travels. Additionally, the hotel is an amazing location as you are pretty much in walking distance to everything.

Be aware they’ll charge for your free breakfast!!
Be careful! They are charging you for your free breakfast!!!! They gave us coupons for a free breakfast but didn’t mention we were not allowed to eat fruit. We took a fruit and on departure they charged us 5€ saying that there coupon is only available for 1 croissant and 1 coffee. It was dishonest considering the poor breakfast choice. There wasn’t even enough croissants for everyone! The bed were ok but the washroom smelled like humidity and wasn’t really clean. (Mole) Angelika was the nicest person to work there. They are lucky to have her, she was a great help for information.

Had to check out of this hotel straight away, when I arrived the room smelt of cigarette smoke, they said it was a non smoking room but I could see neighbouring rooms and people were smoking out the windows. Our beds were camp beds. Worst of all and the reason I didn’t sleep the whole night was the air conditioning machine was ancient, only cooled the room by about 2 degrees and made a really loud rattling sound all night. I spoke to the staff about it, but they really didn’t care and wouldn’t refund any of my up front payment for our stay. We moved to a much nicer hotel. This was the worst hotel I stayed in Rome from my many trips.

Great location but no hot water
This was in a great location. The stuff was very kind and courteous. However, the room had almost no hot water. The shower had to run for a very long time before it would even get warm. The fan in the bathroom was so noisy. It sounded like an airplane was going to takeoff. I had made a reservation for a twin room, but when we checked in that reservation was not honored, and we had to be contempt with the double room.

Overall this was a huge disappointment for the price ! This does not appear to be close to be a 4 star and also is more of a bed and breakfast and not a hotel. The rooms were old and very small and don’t be fooled by the photos. We could hear the street noise even though the claim was it was noise proof. The shower door did not even close properly and we had water leaking. We got no real help on how to move around since we had a tough time finding a taxi as a group of 7. Luckily the last day the lady at the reception was very kind to book us a van that can accommodate us and our luggage to go to the train station. They serve breakfast and it was not good and we had to pay for it. We ended up eating in the cafe next door which was decent and this is what i would recommend . The only possible pro to this place is the location as it is close to the barberini metro. When we checked in, we had a talk on the difference between quality and quantity by super mario where quantity can impact quality. Well this place needs to be evaluated as we found neither 😀. Would not recommend this !

Convenient located in the heart of Rome, walking distance for lot of the attractions. Good costumer service , i booked one of the room with private bathroom but outside the room ( i did not realized that ) which i did not like it but it was my fault. I suggest a mirror , at least a bottle of water and couple of glasses in the room , maybe a coffee maker ?

The concierge service is great and very helpful. Location is great. However the room itself is quite disappointing. Tiny room that fit one double bed and two twins, leaving no privacy and room for walking. The washroom is not very clean. You can see mold everywhere. Sink stinks quite a lot. Overall bad living experience.

I had a really hard time writing this review as I really wanted to love my stay. I was greeted so warmly and welcomed with such kind hospitality, I was really looking forward to my stay at this charming hotel. My issues began after being out all day and returning to my room at 29°C. Rooms require the key to be inserted into a slot to power the lights and air conditioning(ac). I understand the need for this, that's not the problem. After an hour however, the room had not cooled off so I went to get help. Instead of being greeted by the kind woman that checked me in, I was met by a young adult playing on their phone. Unconvinced that the ac was pushing warm air, they met me at the room. After confirming ac was not working, the only solution offered was to wait until the next day(our checkout) as no one was available to look at the unit. After pressing further, they said they would bring me a fan. What we received for our 29°C room was a miniature desk fan with a usb plug and no charger. We were never going to sleep and I was short low on patience, so I pressed further and was finally put in touch with a manager or owner. They finally got the ac to work and the room cooled off an hour later. I know I sound like I am over reacting but I don't have words to describe the could-not-be-bothered attitude from the evening staff we received, and how little they cared about resolving our situation. It only takes one person with a bad attitude to ruin a great experience.

Booked last minute for the last night of our trip before flying out of Rome. What a great choice to stay here. The owner Mario is worth the visit alone. He was so welcoming, funny, gave us some great recommendations. He treated us like we were family. He was also very helpful in sorting out some last minute private shuttles due to flight changes. Hotel is in a great location and has everything we needed. It was clean as well. No issues at all. We’ll definitely be back and recommend staying here. Grazie Mille Mario from your Portuguese friends in Canada! Ciao
