The Worst Hotel I have stayed at in my whole life! All of the things that happened in all the other Negative reviews also happened to us! Made us move to Rubinos Hotel which is also a DUMP! Dirty with mold all over the bathroom and I am talking about both Hotels. I wish I had of read all of these other reviews here before booking! They made us move the first night to Rubinos after we took all our bags up the tiny elevator in 3 trips then back down in the rain to walk a block to Rubinos and another 3 trips up that elevator. I complained all the way to no avail. The next day I went and told them to put us in Blu because that was what we booked and they said the manager would be at Planet so had to go there. Was told that they would try to fix it by the maid as manager was not around. Come back in 30 minutes went back and said ok you can move back but then the manager wanted to be apologetic but I said that was bait and switch and I had not even seen the inside of the Blu rooms which I thought would be better---oops I was wrong. He was very rude and did not want to listen to my complaints instead got in a huff and walked away! I did not even get to the part about the MOLD on the bathroom walls which affected my daughters breathing in the night. She slept with the bathroom door shut and no one took a shower because Rubinos was terrible! The Blu rooms were a little better but still NO 2 star maybe 0 star and that is a stretch. Well I could keep complaining but I feel I have said enough so you know to NEVER EVER STAY in this DUMP or you will be SORRY and Unhappy with your trip to Rome. The only reason we disliked Rome was all because of this Hotel. The trip to Florence then Venice and back was fantastic but Rome Sucked all because I book rooms at the S. Blu. Also do not stay in Planet or Rubinos because they are owned by the same people!

This hotel was great compared to average italian hotels. Breakfast was included which let us start the day with a good breakfast without having to pay a lot in any of the city center cafes.

Without doubt, this is the worst hotel I have stayed in.

The Hotel is very dirty. From the moment we walked in, we could see the dirt on the walls. The lift was filty.

They tried to move us to a different hotel - down the street. That hotel was even worse.

We had to pay in advance, and were told to collect the tickets for the breakfast in the morning which started at 7. When we went to the desk - no one was there.

We went down to the coffee shop where we were told to go the previous evening. Did not open on time. This was also filty. They would not entertain us without our tickets.

Do not go to this hotel. Although the location is great for the termini, nothing is worth staying here.

Stayed at Hotel Soggiorno Blu after a little corespondence with this and another hotel; Was looking for a budget hotel just to sleep and shower/bathe in before starting another long day sightseeing, so not looking to spend too long in the hotel, so comfortable or plush facilities were not top on my agenda on this visit.
Firstly, value and cleandliness were very good, the cost was 80 euros for a double room per night with breakfast included, and we could check in from 10am - ideal when arriving off early morning ryan air flights!

On arrival at the hotel I was surprised to find it was in a building which housed several other hotels - each occupying a seperate floor.

I had checked with the hotel if it was accessable (I am a wheelchair user but dont need an adapted room as I can stand and manage a few steps with a walking stick) and was assured that there was a room that would accomodate my needs, and as rooms were small, I could leave my wheelchair at reception so as not to clutter room with it, which I thought was kind and helpful, I was also reassured there was a lift - which there was, however it was accessed after first climbing up 3 steep steps.

On arrival at the hotel, we buzzed the doorbell and the maid let us in after only a minute, after another minute we were checked in and given our room. The room was right next to the reception and was small with an extremely small bathroom - the whole thing toilet and shower as sink unit was 1 yard square, however I could sit on loo and shower at same time!

The bed linen was clean an crisp and the room was clean, with tv which had an english speaking, american news channel - cnn I think, but not sure.

The room being next to reception was very noisy, and after 10pm we needed to use our keys to enter as reception does not work, so after this time it was noiser still, as people arrived with no concern for sleeping guests, so if you do consider going to this hotel, ask for another room if given the one next to reception.

Breakfast was taken at a little bar on the corner of the street, however on first morning we slept in till 10am so missed breakfast, and on next morning we could not actually access the bar with the wheelchair and were asked to leave me outside, while my husband went in an ate breakfast stood at bar then brough some out for me, needless to say this option was not taken up and we had a lovely roll and coffee at the station, just round corner and accross road. On the third day we left before breakfast bar opened, so I cannot make any comments on food or breakfast except to say they were not accomodating, wether that was because they had already seen the vouchers the hotel issue to exchange for breakfast, so knew we were not paying customers I do not know but suspect they may have helped more if they thought there was cash at stake.

The hotel arranged our transfere back to the airport for us, and helped us down with bags at 7am.

All in all it is a good location, clean and basic hotel (more of an old B&B than a hotel) but good value, I would recommend it if you were not a wheelchair user and looking for a bargain place to crash near the transport network. If you are looking for a nice place to have a break, look somewhere else or you may be a tad disappointed.
