“Nice Hotel poor location”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 November 2011
2
people found this review helpful

I went to this Hotel with my daughter for a three night stay and was dissapointed to find the twin room I requested was not available ( late rooms .com did not pass on the comments to the Hotel however the staff at the Hotel sorted it first thing in the morning, the Hotel is a very clean and modern with very obliging staff who were very friendly , the downside is that the Hotel is quite a bit outside Rome ( ten minute walk to the metro and a fifteen minute journey which is fine in the daytime but the trains finish at 9 pm and is very expensive if you take Taxis back to the Hotel from the centre of Rome, the most unfortunate point I have to make is that at night time the place turns into a Red light area with the garden at the Hotel entrance being used by the ladies of the night and their clientele, it is with great regret that this Hotels reputation is soured by its location but it is only fair to point it out to fellow travellers

Room Tip: We had two rooms equally as good

“Dirty”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 November 2011

person found this review helpful

Carpet is filthy.
Booked through Booking.com a Triple with garden view: no garden view, only one double bed with a single sofa bed, staff wan not very apologetical, but provided me with a cot that was no different from sofa bed.
Breakfast was ok, but fruit a bit passed.
Fittings need some maintenance.

“Very good price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 October 2011

The Hotel Area in Rome has a very good quality price ratio. If you are ok with the basic needs (no restaurant, no gymn), but you are just looking for a clean and spacious room; then this hotel is for you.
Compared with many other hotel in Rome, this one is very clean and the personell is incredibly friendly. Is not central, but is 10 minutes away from the metro (Marconi stop). If you look for an hotel in the same price range in Rome city centre, you'll probably find a low quality, not so clean place.

“Never again”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 October 2011 via mobile

The only compliment I can give is to Alessandro who was very helpful upon our arrival. Also the hotel is a 5 min walk from Marconi metro station which is handy.

Other than that the entire hotel smells of cigarettes (non smoking hotel), the carpet is filthy and the lift is just scary to ride with the emergency button broken. The room is so run down and shabby, our "king bed" is two singles pushed together and as a result you can't walk to the bathroom as it blocks the whole room off. The air conditioner attempts to work but fails and there isn't one English TV channel. I am 5'5" and weigh 55kg and I can just fit in the shower, my 6' husband had to open the door to wash his legs. The wifi is so frustrating it just boots you off randomly and you have to ask reception for a new login every 24 hours (???)

Icing on the cake was being woken at 7.30am by the cleaners who were having a cigarette and a chat on the fire escape in the hallway (so that's where the smoke smell comes from).

This place will be 4 stars when hell freezes over.
