After reading the other reviews I was compelled to write one myself. In my opinion few people that have a good experience will write a review. EVERY not so good stay will get a review. My wife and I enjoyed our stay here. The staff was ok, not perfect (as we expect in America) and the amenities were meager. You have to remember though, this is not America. We're pampered and quite frankly babied in the states. You will be treated like you treat them. This is a busy area too, don't expect peace and quiet. You're staying here for the locale and nightlife. Had a great time, lots to do, great wine bar around the corner, great shopping, Spanish Steps a two minute walk...........loved it. I wasn't in my room long enough to care about the hospitality.

I wanted to write a review with updated information because the last one I saw on this hotel was 2007. Overall this hotel was good but seemed a little pricey ($210/night). Rome is more expensive compared to what I am used to so not sure if you would be able to find better value for the price.

Location - Good Location near Spanish Steps. We were able to walk everywhere (Vatican City, Colosseum, Navona Square) without a problem. Hotel is on a street that has low traffic volume but this was an issue for us because we were on the first floor. We could hear lots of activity outside early in the morning.

Room/Bathroom - We had a room with standard bed on first floor. Small room but I think this is common is Rome. Bed (queen bed) was fairly comfortable. Room had safe and mini fridge for use with no extra charge. No balcony but windows opened and gave you nice view of street. As mentioned above, we could hear lots of noise early in the morning so a room higher up or away from the street might be better. Furnishings were classic Italy style and looked updated as indicated on their website. Bathroom was very small which was ok but a bigger shower would have been nice.

Service - Above average service. Hotel employees were very nice and accommodating. Although we did try to switch rooms after the first night without success because they were full.

Breakfast - Typical Itallian breakfast with bread, cheese, cereal, milk, juice, coffee, yogurt, fruit; no meat.

Overall - Nice hotel but it seemed a little pricey.

Room was awful compared to the price. The dark haired woman on the door, the manager, was rude beyond belief. Ringing up late in the night disturbing my and my girlfriends sleep.

They didn't notify me when my lost luggage arrived for two days and so went home without it.

I cannot warn anyone enough about this place...

The room was OK but noisy street at least while the bars and restaurants opposite are open. In terms of pluses, it has a good location for shops and bars. In terms of negatives, the service is poor, for 250E per night we would have at least expected some help with the bags when we arrived. TV channels had very little in English and the bathroom could have been cleaner. In all, there are better in the viccinity for similar or slightly more money.
