Overall ok. Would say 3*. The location of this property is not in a nice area IMO , not central ( which I knew but assumed there would be nice restaurants around) ..cinema down the road advertised “sexy movies” The entrance to the hotel looks like a hostel , some staff welcoming, others need to work on their customer service etiquette, a smile or a simple hello or please when checking guests in is not too much to expect. About ten steps into the hotel so if you’re carrying cases or have any mobility impairment in any way your stuck. I did see the young worker carrying heavy luggage piled up and taking them down the steps .. no health and safety for staff! The hotel lets guest smoke and vape around the pool , horrible if your dining out or have young children trying to enjoy the pool . Smokers need to have a separate area! In this day and age. Only about 8 loungers around pool, not enough for number of hotel guests. The bar area inside is very dismal, not well lit and definitely not enticing. The breakfast was ok!! Lots of cakes … if you like desert for breakfast you’re good. Milk and yogurts not on ice and were therefore warm… and the fresh juices were watered down and tasted vile.

The property is beautiful, the staff is super helpful, the rooms are quite nice. Breakfast was outstanding. The pool was very crowded pretty much all the time so we couldn't really use it. The streets around the hotel were strewn with trash, very bad. As great as the hotel is, we won't stay there because of all the trash in the nearby streets.

This is a lovely hotel with a friendly staff. It is a little out of the way from most of the major tourist attractions, but close to Termini, so that is convenient. There are several nice dining options nearby, as well as at the hotel itself. The pool and the sundeck are lovely. Definitely a place I would stay on our next trip to Rome.

Didn’t realize there is nothing going on that area and it was kinda scary to walk at night. No tourist spots at all. The staff were great. My room door was broken and they moved me to another room right away. The piano player at the bar lounge area was excellent as well as bartender. Only real complaint was the bed was uncomfortable kinda too hard. The second room they pushed 2 twins beds together and I almost fell in. The rooms were very clean and smell good. Pool was good but definitely not for kids. It’s all one level maybe 5 ft.

Perfect for a stay in Rome!
We received a warm welcome from the very kind lady who checked us in and she was helpful throughout our stay giving great advice on where it go and what time see. The room was great and the jetted tub was brilliant to have. We loved the pool after a warm day sightseeing. Max the pianist in the bar was fantastic! Good location about 10 mins from the station with nice restaurants in streets nearby.

Property was about 15min walk from train station which we wanted as that was our means of transportation for our trip. Easy to get a cab that hotel staff would call to take us to other destinations. It was quite a distance (walking) from main attractions. 20 min cab ride to Vatican. Room was unique - modern touch screen powered lights etc. Our room was next to road so could hear a bit of traffic at night but nothing overly disturbing. Our room was clean but shower had some mold/mildew build up in spots that needs to be taken care of as well as door to shower didn’t completely close and water puddled on floor. Beds were decent for a nights rest. Breakfast was decent - eggs, fruit, bacon, pastries- if you want cappuccino or espresso type drinks you need to ask staff to get it as on buffet they have only americano and hot milk in carafe. Pool was refreshing, fairly small but ok for amount of people using it. They give you towels to use at front desk. They prefer city tax to be paid in cash and had notes all over the hotel to remind you of that. The only place we stayed that seemed so adamant about that. Everywhere else we used card. Lobby was beautiful and restaurant overlooked lobby.

It was generally a nice hotel. Staff were helpful and welcoming. Rooms were being cleaned every day which I find it not neccessary and harmful for the environment. Breakfast was acceptable but without any changes day to day that bored us after second try. We enjoyed the pool, it is beneficial after long walks in the city. Hotel has good access to the public transport and close to termini station.

Manager was awful! Did not have air conditioning and manager took no responsibility! He basically blamed us! Had family and friends who had recommended this hotel but will never go back! Was offered no compensation! I will make sure no one I know ever goes there! Rest of staff were great but manager very sketchy! Manager made excuses and would not help us out and I had my 84 year old mother! Shame on him!!!

This property is slightly aged in its decor and inside, however that would be the only downfall of this hotel. We felt safe at all times and the front desk support was always exceptional. Breakfest was fresh and tasty (albeit coffee could be better). We cannot fault this hotel for anything other than being slightly aged.

Not so good for the price
The bed wasn’t comfortable (hard and not firm, you could feel the springs, the mattress seemed either old or bad quality) Breakfast was okay, the scrambled eggs were soggy, some food options, plates and other stuff weren’t always available, particularly after 10 AM. Way too expensive for what it offers.

We booked the hotel as it was convenient for Termini. That meant we were a long walk from the main attractions, so location was the only downside. Room was clean but quite small. That was fine for two nights but a little to compact for a longer stay. Breakfast was delicious. Staff were extremely friendly and helped with a small problem with no fuss.
