Small room - yes... But staff was friendly and helpfull, clean and nice room, good location and good breakfast. Take the cheap 5.50 Euro train from the airport and get off at Tuscolana. Continue with bus 85 to San Silvestro or Metro to Spanish steps. Another idea. The lines to get in to the famous places, can look very long,... More

I LOVED this hotel! Yes, the rooms are small, but who goes to Rome to spend lots of time in their hotel rooms?!?! There was a man at the front desk, Marko, who was, by far, the nicest person at a hotel I've ever met. I had to leave early to catch a bus to Sorrento, and he offered to... More

We got into Rome with no hotel reservation and this hotel was recommended by a shuttle bus driver in the airport. When we got there we were exhausted, but had we been a little more alert, we would not have stayed there. The room was so small, we could barely move with 2 people in the room. The bathroom was...

I stayed in this hotel because recomended by friends. The staff was friendly and helpful and the hotel was near everything so we didn't even have to take a bus or a metro to go anywhere. The breakfast was good, the rooms are just a little tiny but we were out all day so what we were interested in was... More

I have travelled around the world for years but I never, ever seen anything like this. When we got to our room we burst out laughting as it was disgusting. Everything was dirty, old and worn. We did sleep with a terrible sewer stink. We can't comment on breakfast as we went elsewhere to look for somewhere clean. Do not... More

The room was absolutely appalling, it was unbelievable, I didn't believe the previous review of how bad it was, but next time I will pay more attention to bad reviews. I also left and was charged for the whole stay. Stay Away!!!! More

It is a shame that 1 star is the lowest you can give a hotel as this hotel is shamed by those with 1 star. I can't express in words how terrible my 5 minute (paid for much more) stay was at this hotel. Climbing the stairs to my room, I started to get worried about the amount of dirt... More

This bare bones hotel is going under a much neededand noisy facelift. Upon our arrival the few pieces of furniture in the room had a film of dust on them. The tiny bathroom was clean but difficult to manuver in. The hotel staff was cold and unfriendly and seemed very put out at the smallest request such as directions or... More
