We stayed here for four nights. Its Location is great close to the Vatican and at same time well connected to the centre with the metro and buses. The room was very tastefully decorated and spacious. The down side is that breakfast is quite limited.

Comfortable, quiet hotel very close to St. Peter's Square and the subway, in a central neighbourhood that is very safe to stroll in at all hours. Only 5 rooms; ours was large and more than adequate. Staff is very helpful. Only criticism would be that the breakfast is very limited but this is amply made up for by the tasty capuccinos and the really helpful 24-hour front desk staff.

We stayed for 6 nights in the hotel and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Having walked a lot during the day, it was great to come back to a spacious, comfortable room. The hotel was quiet, with the traffic outside only audible when a siren went off.

The location was great, a short walk away from Vatican City and not far from buses, trams, small supermarkets and other shops, cafes and restaurants.

Our hosts were the only let down - during most mornings, a woman acted as receptionist and was not helpful - when asked about buses, she advised us to go on the Metro, clearly not listening to what we wanted to do. Most of the time we saw her, she was on the phone for very long periods. Although, the man who normally had the night shift was very polite and far more helpful.

My partner and I never use hotel restaurants, wi-fi / internet, gym or swimming pool - we only need a comfortable, clean room and this was ideal. For those looking for more, they should probably look elsewhere.

I rarely write reviews, but my husband and I felt that people should know a few things about this hotel before booking. On the positive side, the rooms are clean and nicely furnished, and appear to be fairly recently renovated. Location is also a plus, withing a walking distance from the Vatican Museum and just a 2-minute walk from the metro. Now about the place itself. This is not really a hotel, this appears to be an old (although nicely renovated) apartment with many rooms, with the front desk located in what would be the corridor, and the kitchen/breakfast room in one of the rooms. The doors are thin as you would expect them in an apartment room, and therefore, as others have noted, there is absolutely no privacy and no quiet. You can hear someone whisper at the front desk, let alone the noise from the breakfast room. Needless to say, everything you do or say in your room, including going to the bathroom, watching TV, and whatever else you are planning to enjoy on your vacation, will be heard by others. We did not complain as it was pointless, but another guest did, and it seems to me his polite complaints were not received nicely, as there was a loud argument and lots of frustration on both sides.
Another drawback is that there was no free wireless internet. Other hotels in Italy offered this free service, but not this hotel. The security box in our room was broken, but we were informed about it only after the person at the front desk heard us trying to use it (through the closed door) and offered to keep the valuables in the general hotel safe. Another drawback which might be an issue for some people is the lack of an elevator. Not only that, but when we buzzed from the street, we were simply informed that there is no elevator and we need to go up--with the luggage. No one was sent to help us, and there is no way I would be able to carry the suitcase myself if I were to travel without my husband. Another minor issue is that there is no one at the front desk at night, and if you come back late, you can't even pick up the belongings in your safe, or ask questions. The questions, by the way (of which I had but a couple, i.e. where can I buy the Roma Pass), where NOT answered. In general, I felt that we were at a house of a friend of a friend of a friend, with the host not objecting to our stay, but not exactly welcoming us either. Considering that this is Rome, and there are many hotels there in this price range, I would most definitely go for something else.
