In the middle of a student area, with gritty urban surround sits this old villa: a haven of peace and elegance.
It's a simple hotel. Rooms look and feel historic: not everyone's taste, but rather lovely. Windows have old shutters & you awake to the sounds of Rome, open sutters and observe the patio with trees and birds and bright sunlight. It's all rather lovely.
Service matches the hotel: polite, courteous, even elegant: old worldly in the best way.
Location is odd: feels like hotel shoudl be with its cousins back in the Aventino: but if you need to be in this part of town, it's a gem.
