Stayed at the Carlo Magno while on a Scenic Italy Tour with Trafalgar,and found it to be only adequate in terms of having a clean place to stay.
The hotel website suggests taking the FM 1 from the airport to get there,but we did that and found it very confusing to find our way to the hotel upon getting off the train at that particular stop. No signs at stop as to which way to turn to get to the outlying streets. If you were to arrive at night in the dark , it would be totally terrifying to find yourself there. If I had it to do over again I would take the train to Termini and then the bus to the closest stop to the hotel. Bus #90 that would get you the closest to the hotel. It is easy to get to hotel from that stop,and it is worth the trouble of transferring at Termini train station.
There are no shops or restaurants to speak of in that area except for 1 which we did not try. Buses are confusing and take at least 20 minutes to get to centre of Rome. Spend a few extra dollars and stay closer to the city centre where you can walk to most sites.
