Would not recommend
We arrived at the hotel at 3pm and no one was there we could not get in luckily for us an Italian man was also checking in and he opened a locked box which had our door card in it with info written only in Italian. We received an email advising us how to gain entry about an hour and a half after we arrived again in Italian only. Air conditioning didn’t work and when we found someone to ask on our third and last day he just said it did work but did not cool the room down. This is not really a hotel and should not be advertised as such. The reception said it was manned 9-6 but we did not see anyone very often. Poor toiletries provided in very small sachets of body wash only not even enough for one!!

No one was present when I arrived at 4:00 pm even though they said that someone would be there until 5:00. I had to get the clerk at the Hotel Princessa on the 1st floor to call the owner of Why Not Roma to get the code to get into my room. Apparently, the owner had sent me an email earlier that day with instructions; however, I was in transit via rail and didn't have email access. The morning hostess, though, cleaned the room daily and was helpful and gracious. Breakfasts are very minimal (croissant and yoghurt). If you want any protein (meats, eggs, etc.) in the mornings, go elsewhere. Also, this isn't located in a tourist-friendly area--it's surrounded by banks, embassies, businesses and expensive restaurants.

This is such a great property to stay in. We were here for 6 days. My arrival time was way past their check in time and when i messaged them for a late check in, they replied promptly with a set of instructions to retrieve my key from their lock box. Curiously theyre on the 5th floor with a shared entrance with Hotel Priscilla (it took us a second to figurethat out) When we checked in the following morning we were greeted by the lovely Anita. I dont think i have enough words to say how grateful I was of her hospitality. She gave us a map of the city, bus routes, places to eat, everything we needed. She was always a pleasure to talk to and she was incredibly helpful. Conveniently Taverna Priscilla is downstairs and its a wonderful place to eat after a long day walking the city. Marino, their waiter gave us first class service. Would I stay again here? Without a shadow of a doubt. A++++

I would go back
Its located 10min walk from main train station. It was walkable distance for us. Very frendly, helpful staff. Just little bit difficult to talk or ask to staff because reception opens limited time. We had a situation that we stucked inside due to main auto gate was not working. And it was after reception closed. We had only this issue. Without that i would recommand. But i would say this is not "hotel" more like B&B style.

I'd go back again
The location is a little far from the main attraction, but there's a bus near the hotel that can take you to the popular spots. I was able to walk around fine to the Colosseum and to the Roman ruins from the hotel. The receptionist provided me with a map and gave me detailed directions on what bus to take to go to specific places that I requested. Breakfast is average: Drink- coffee, tea, juice, and water Food- toast crackers, jelly, cereal, croissants, etc. The room is nice and you have your own shower (small and very weak water pressure, but doable), they also have in unit ac, and provide free WiFi (it didn't work for me).

Comfortable, Modern B&B near the centre of town.
This 5th floor B&B attaches to another hotel (Priscilla) is about 20-30 minute walk for the centre attractions. Plenty of minor attractions on the way. Cheap but nice restaurants nearby. Taxi rank nearby - use the licensed ones only! Had trouble getting into the room initially - apparently emailed all the info but it wasn't there, the contact number also didn't work for us. Priscilla helped us to gain access though. They were very helpful and also booked our early taxi for departure. Very impressed with the room when we did get in. Sizeable, modern, clean and with a mini fridge and a brilliant shower. However, you could see the person washing - maybe less suitable for non-couples... Our AC wasn't working and that the safe was locked. With no permanent reception and with us being out early and home late, the only staff we spoke to in 5 days was a maid who didn't speak English. Using Google Translate - she said she'd refer to her employer but heard nothing back about the issues the entire trip. A safe isn't vital for us and Rome was cool enough to survive the nights in April but this could be issues at other times for different customers. Continental breakfast was nothing special but sufficient to stock up for a long day. Nice yogurts and pastries. Overall, after initial frustration, we did enjoy our stay here as it was basically a comfortable rest stop. I'm not fussy but like to nit-pick in reviews to prepare the fussy people! Would stay again.

QUIET, SAFE , WALKING DISTANCE OF DOWNTOWN.
Located in a residential area. Very secure. 2-3 block away from the USA Embassy and French Embassy.(Military area supervised 24). Several hight end hotels are on the same Calabria Street. But there are several local affordables places and rest. to eat and the best gelateria La Romano since 1947 open until midnight. You will see a long line of more that 50 locals until midnight. Area offer less expensive and more local food away from the tourist fixed meals. If you walk one block noth of Calabria you will find stores and many casual caffeterias and places to eat at night. Walk Piave and then all the busses are there. they are fun to ride.Termini or downtown Rome is a walk of 10-15 minutes.Taxi $12 euros at night in emergency. I walked most of the time and came late at night. It is a quiet area. If you like noise, tourist and lights then, this is not for you. Very clean and manteined hotel. Spotless and brand new clean sheets. Breakfast is very good. The only down point is that after 5pm the front desk is closed. You are on your own. If you need information or you lose your keys, well.. good luck. Ekevator is for 2/3 people but Rome is like that. Priscilla hotel is the main entrance and WNR is on top floor. I liked the area but sometimes I found myself to quiet and away from the Center. But the price is affordable and would come back next time. VERY QUIET, AFFORDABLE, SUPER CLEAN, LOCAL SHOPS AND VARIOUS REST. AND CAFFETERIAS AROUND. CLOSE TO TERMINI AND BUSSES A PLUS.
