Me and my friend in our Mid Twenty's stayed here for 3 nights in February. After reading the reviews i was abit scared to say the lease.
On arrival into the termini station we asked someone for direction and was glad to find it was like a 2 minute walk! Fantastic! We could not check in until 1pm so grabbed a drink at a nearby cafe.
When we checked in the receptionist was lovely and friendly, we got to know her well and she looked after us and was very helpful! Her name was Elizabeta. When we checked in we got room 211. So 2nd floor. The lift smelt so bad i was nearly sick, my friend was laughing so much she fell up the stairs! We opted for the stairs.
The room on approach was abit of an eye opening but it smelt clean and we had 3 beds so we put all our clothes on the third bed! The bathroom was abit old but it was clean and the only downer on any of the room was the bad light, it was aweful and there wasnt a mirror only in the bathroom, me and my friend found it hard having to share it all the time! The carpet needed abit of a clean, when we would use the shower i was having to put my shoes on, scared of what we would pick up on our feet!! We had some lovely meals at restaurants near the hotel and went to some lovely bars! The main reason for hotel was location, ive stayed in worse. It did exactly what it said on the tin and after paying £39 for 3 nights was not really bothered! Just get a good light and an extra mirror and it would of done the job for two ladys! We did meet the fat cleaner on the last day. She was lovely ( not ) !! We were laughing at her so much i think we scared her away! She chucked us out of reception as she was cleaning and she said we was in the way, we wasnt think she just didnt like us as we stood upto her and we were english - very loud and giggling ha ha!! Made me laugh at least! If you want a hotel near to everything and nice restaurants and bars nearby then this is the hotel for you! If you want luxury then dont!
