fantastic stay!

cute staff private balcony tasty breakfast

the hotel staff were cute upon my arrival.. gigi even provided coffee and snacks. lorenzo always greeted me with a smile . i had a private balcony where i could enjoy breakfast.

the air conditioning did not work effectively. i could hear the fan running, but the room temperature remained around 32 degrees celsius. this made sleeping difficult, as i was expecting proper cooling.

pleasant experience near termini

helpful tips early arrival easy luggage storage

the staff was really nice . they offered helpful tips for seeing the sights and avoiding lines at the colosseum. i appreciated the free coffee and pastries upon my early arrival before check-in time. storing luggage before check-in and after check-out was easy too.

the soundproofing wasn't the best, and i could hear doors slamming, hallway noise and the metro vibrations. the breakfast had good variety though the food quality wasn't excellent. the bacon tasted like plastic.

Rooms

8/10

My room was generally clean with a comfortable bed. coffee, tea, and a kettle were available on the desk. there was a fridge in the room, though no bottled water was provided. The room was also very quiet, given its location on a busy street.

Location

9/10

the hotel's location made it easy to walk to the colosseum and other city attractions! nearby, i found shops and restaurants adding to the area's charm. it was also a short walk to termini station, very helpful for airport transportation.

sufficient experience

convenient location bus stop metro access small room dirty bathroom limited space

the location proved very convenient. a bus stop sat right outside, and the metro was close too. i received a colourful map with suggested attractions. the breakfast options seemed decent considering the price..

my room felt quite small. it lacked sufficient space for opening my luggage. the bathroom seemed old. i noticed it looked dirty as well
