The pros: Cheap rates. Staff was friendly. I liked the location near the train and bus station. The sheets were clean and the bed made up every day. The cons: Kitchen had no microwave, stove or kettle to heat water - how can it be called a kitchen? Heat in room came on at 7 pm and off by 9pm... More

Fawlty Towers was a great place to stay considering that we were on a rather tight budget! I understand that there are both dorm rooms and private rooms available. The room was ok - clean and reasonably comfortable but certainly in need of some TLC. The staff were informative, polite and funny. The bit that made this accomodation particularly great... More

I stayed and this hotel for 4 nights. At my last night I discovery that the reception door was open, but the staff was slepping in a room! I can't belive. Anyone could enter and nobody stop! I agree with the others users opion. So, this hotels it isn't a saver place to stay. More

My husband and I stayed here for our last night in Rome. The reviews are true. The bathroom smelled like sewage and the bed was broken. When we tried to go to sleep at 10:30 PM, the room next door was blasting rap music with the door wide open and there were noisy, unsupervised children staying in the hostel while... More

The room is terrible. The bed was broken, and the cereal is so old it became one big chunky piece of rice crispy. The worst part was the Indian receptionist. He barged into my room without knocking at 12:30 am and told me I was too loud when I was half asleep in bed. He told me to pack up... More

I don't know why Rick Steve's listed this place in his book. He made it sound like a fun place to stay, but it wasn't fun, unless you idea of fun is staying in a dirty and run down room. The walls and ceiling were dirty and stained and had holes in them. The toliet seat wasn't fastened properly and... More

We went to Rome on a whim so we had no reservations or idea of where to stay. When we arrived in the Termini station from the airport we only knew that there were many places to stay nearby. We used the tourism service, Enjoy Rome to help us find a place for the weekend. Our requirements were only that... More

Had to have an overnight room after our flight in from Germany before we could get into our other lodging. Chose this one as one of the cheaper ones close to the train station. Definitely paid for it. The bathroom smelled horrible and was covered in a 1/8" layer of water over the whole floor. Our room opened up to... More

Reading the reviews now for Fawlty Towers I can't believe I stayed at the same hotel. I came to Rome a couple of weeks ago and had a relaxed and overall pleasant experience. I have to say I am a huge fan of the television show Fawlty Towers and the name of this hotel did catch my eye. For a... More
