I liked very much that Hotel. It has a very good location, 10 minutes from the metro station Garbatella from where you can go in all the places.
The breakfast was delicious, we also had a mini-fridge with 2 bottles of mineral water wich were exactly what we needed when we used to arrive at 11 pm in the room. There is also a supermarket near this Hotel.
A very nice and polite girl cleaned our room every morning and we were very happy with that. In the room there were very beautiful pictures with views of the city of Rome. I will definitely stay again there and I hope the conditions will remain the same. Thank you for everything ! The Christmas in Rome was a dream and it came true !

The hotel is basic, clean and the breakfast is good. The location in me opinion is ok, because is in a quiet neighborhood, and not to far from the historical center.

Hotel was clean and meet our needs but off the beaten path. Had to take buses to center every day to sightsee which wasted a lot of time. Most of the buses were easy to figure out except the one to the vatican. We ended up riding around for 2 hours because we got on the wrong bus or needed to get a transfer after the first bus which the hotel neglected to tell us, I'm not sure which one. Would recommend this hotel if you don't mind taking the bus every day to get into the city, otherwise pick one closer to the center of Rome.

I traveled to Rome for four days (three nights) with my mother. Hotel Caravel got chosen as the accommodation for our trip randomly, mainly because of the price compared to hotels in central Rome. Thinking back now, a hotel in central Rome might be worth the money. Even though there are several busses that take you from the bus stop next to the hotel to the central Rome or to one of the metro station, they did not always go as often as one could hope. For example on Sundays the bus number 715 (recommended to us by the hotel staff) was supposed to leave Piazza Venezia (in the centre) ones an hour. Furthermore, we waited the bus for over an hour in the centre around 7pm and in the end took a taxi as there was no sign of the bus anywhere.

Other than the location, the hotel did not impress us, either. It was not the worst hotel I have been to, but far from the best. We found the staff somewhat rude and unwilling to assist us with our problems. For example when we asked helped in removing the plug of the bathtub that had been left stuck by someone prior to us, the receptionist was very rude and apparently thought we were just two women unable to handle it ourselves and thus bothered him pointlessly. It took, however, almost an hour and at least two different tools for the janitor to remove the plug.

The main problem we had with this hotel was the thin walls and extremely noisy bathrooms. If you needed to use the bathroom during the night you were sure to wake up the people not only in your own room but the room next to yours as there was a relatively loud noise that lasted for about five minutes when you for example flushed the toilet. We were, at least, woken up by the neighbor's bathroom visits every night.
Besides using the bathroom during the night, our neighbors were also extremely loud whenever coming back to their room or discussing with each other, and because of the thin walls this definitely woke us up numerous times.

The rooms were, on a good note, spacious and clean enough. The breakfast was relatively good, nothing special and little variety (at least during three/four mornings) but definitely enough for us.

I would probably not go to this hotel again, mainly because of the noise that disturbed me during the nights. The location is not the best possible, but as long as you don't mind taking the bus or the metro and are not too impatient to get to the centre fast whenever you want to, it is not too big of a problem. As said above I wasn't personally a big fan of the attitude of the staff, but it is a question of personal preference and what I am used to, so it probably isn't a problem for everyone.
