We are a family of 4 with 2 adult "children" and spent 3 nights at the Polo Hotel. We flew in and took RomeCabs to the Polo Hotel for $55 euros. We mentioned to our driver how we are planning to buy the Roma Pass and he offered to wait for us after we checked in and take us to Termini Station to purchase them. We were welcomed with a smile and checked in to our 2 clean rooms. We checked in to room 309, with a small walk-out balcony and the view is facing the building across, facing their balconies as well. Room 312 has a basic window facing the street. We had all the basic toiletries, hair dryer, and a few extras such as shower caps and shoe shine buffers. The room and bathroom were very clean and each adult had their own little closet, set of drawers, in addition to a dresser. Cable channels were iffy, but who really wants to watch TV? Both rooms also had keyboards for internet access, at a fee. There is also a small fridge in the room and my tiny bottle of water was the only thing that fit (worked for me). We enjoyed breakfast and always had plenty to eat. We ate dinner there the first night because we were exhausted and were the only guests for dinner. We didn't see many guests and perhaps that is why there was always plenty to eat at breakfast. The hotel is not located in the city, but we had easy access to the train station and never had to wait long for a train (5 to 10 minute walk). One bus runs in front of the hotel, but we didn't take it. As you face out the front doors, there is a grocery store up the hill on the left. We went there about 3 times for water, fruit, and snacks. The walk from the train station to the hotel was nice and allowed us to talk about our day. We didn't mind the distance and enjoyed our stay at the Polo Hotel and hopefully you will as well.
