Positive about the hotel: Cheap, good location with the subway just outside the door. Takes about 5-10 min to go to Colesseum for exampel. Bus nr 62 leaves från Bologna just 2 min away from the hotel. Takes you straight to St Peters and other parts of the city.
Other similair hotels closer to the city are much more expensive. Perfect to stay in if you just need a place to sleep and take a shower in. We spend all day enjoying Rome :)
Very little tourists in the area and more locals. Good food places around with just locals there.

Negative about the hotel: Small rooms. Bad breakfast (just some dry bread). The staff is not the most service minded people but still ok.

When we arrived at the hotel it was at the fourth floor of an old building that was actually not mentioned anywhere at the web site. There was an old, slow and small elevator for maximum four persons. If you have more luggage you, have to make more courses. If your choice is this this hotel it is not bad idea to start learn Italian, because the personal does not speak English (except one lady).
The room was much smaller than it looked on photos. It was non-smoking but from time to time we could feel tobacco smoke getting in through the air-conditioning. In the bathroom, there was just 1 towel per person, small towels for feet and face were not included. Also, the shower cabin's door could not close to the end and the drainage of the water was extremely slow, so that one can not have a proper shower.
The breakfast consisted of a minor amount of items, never including any meat or fruits.
When we wanted to pay our bill with a card, the lady at the reception gave us a receipt saying that the amount in our card was insufficient. When we rang our bank they told us that the transaction was successful and the money is withdrawn by the hotel ( they told us the amount which they would not know), and one minute later there was a trial for a second transaction that failed because the amount was insufficient for it.
We kindly explained to the lady what our bank is saying, supposing that a mistake has happened. She became furious and arrogant. We had to pay in cash for a second time.
We will warn all friends and family going to Rome not to use this hotel.

The hotel is on the steps of the metro Bologna station and near the 62 bus which covers much of central Rome.
The room and breakfast were reasonable but several small things remained broken after several reminders.
Staff was pleasant though we struggled with the English

My girlfriend and I stayed in this hotel and it was great. The location is by far the best attribute - only 5 metro stops(6/7mins) from the colosseum. The metro is literally outside your door (no noise thankfully)

The hotel has plenty of charm and is very homely. It is located in a building which it occupies the 4 & 5th floor. You step out of the lift and you walk into the hotel lobby.

The hotel is very safe and secure - the external door is locked at night (you have to buzz reception to enter)

The only problem I had with the hotel was the lack of a restaurant - although there are plenty around both walking and short metro.

To locate this hotel from the Termini station - there are 2 metros, take the Blue one(the one with colosseum) - get off on the Bologna stop and walk up the steps & you will be at hotel laura

I would stay here again without a doubt.
