We arrived at the hotel at around 1pm in the afternoon to check in, the rooms were not ready yet so the reception guys gave us directions to get a drink and a bite to eat. Once Checked in the rooms were fantastic lovely and clean , very comfortable beds.
We asked reception on the best way to get into Rome to do some sightseeing, and they were really helpful, they told us that prking in Rome is free on a Sunday, which was fab as we were gonna get the train or bus.
We came back to the hotel in the evening to have the set meal for 15euros, we went into the resturant upstairs we sat down and waited 10 minutes for the menu, placed our order for the set meals, when the lasagne came out it was luke warm but edible especially as we were hungry from all the walking around in Rome.
We then waited a further 30 mins for second course which was 2 pieces of roast pork and side plate of carrots in butter, very disapointing, the meat was freezing it was as if the chef had forgot to heat it up, we asked the waiter to take the plate back and warm up the meat so they did.
10 mins later it came out full of steam as we asked for it to be re heated, when it was time for deserts 3 of us placed our order when i turned to see whatmy friend wanted i was faced with a plate flung on the table at me and him walking away.
We spoke to the managaer and his was very apologetic, the Hotel was fantastic its just a shame that it was let down by the meal, oh and the bar should have opened at 4pm but it had to stay closed as they were short staffed in the resturant.
