“Definitely not a hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 December 2011

Myself and my husband stayed here in early December. We did a lot of research into the area and I must admit, Via Nazionale is a fantastic location and is exactly where you want to be staying if you want to go site seeing in Rome. The "Hotel" however is anything but a hotel! We arrived there late on the Wednesday night (10.30pm), the front of the "hotel" had a huge double door which was locked, we buzzed for about half an hour and finally another resident was going in and let us in also. This accommodation was the most bizarre set up, it is like the owners have rented part of a floor of this building and they are letting out rooms on it. It has a small poky desk stuck in the corner which they call a reception. Besides the guest's there is only someone on site in the morning. Rooms are very basic and the breakfast is a poor excuse, we had to go to a pub 2 doors up from where we were staying, we got a coffee and a croissant and that was what they called breakfast, you didn't have a choice of having any extra or anything else. This hotel was definitely not a hotel, I wouldn't even class it a B&B, very strange set up, there are also about another 4 "Hotels" in the same building. There is definitely a lot better accommodation available in this area. Very disappointed as we booked this based soley on previous reviews.

“Hidden Treasure of Rome”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 October 2009

person found this review helpful

This is a very good value based on it's amenities. Although tricky to find this hotel, it was super clean, room was small and simple but adequate, clean with a great location. We felt very safe and secure . Staff was very helpful and friendly. Continental breakfast included fresh pastries, coffee and juice. We really liked the refrigerator and cable TV. The only negative was the air conditioner did not seem to cool adequately and you do need to arrive when the clerk is on duty.

“Has everything--filth, noise, and dishonesty!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 July 2007
1
person found this review helpful

The place was filthy. The sheets hadn't been changed after the previous tenant. There were hairs in the bed. The glass in the bathroom had toothpaste in it. The desk clerk, just outside my door, spent all night on the phone with her boyfriend. Lucky me, I now know as much about her life as he does. One night (out of three) was enough for me so I checked out early, agreeing to pay half of what I would have owed them for the three nights, and THEY BILLED MY CREDIT CARD FOR THE REMAINING TWO NIGHTS!

  • Liked — Not a darn thing
