I liked the room, it was clean and cozy! It has a kettle, netflix and disney plus, and a clean bathroom. They offer to keep left my luggage after checking out for free, so we can visit the city!

The bathroom was honestly gross. Mold in the shower and hair was left from the prior guests. There was a consistent sewage smell stemming from the bathroom as well. The walls are very thin and you can hear other guest’s conversations & comings and goings.

This is a small hotel between the Vatican and Piazza Navona. It is not staffed all day so it was necessay to inform the hotel when we would be arriving. A great advantage for people travelling overnight from North America is the early check-in that allows for a much needed nap. Nothing fancy but it was clean and comfortable. Friendly staff. A reasonable stop for a short stay before we moved into our VRBO apartment.

This hotel excels in cleanliness and security, with comfortable beds and thorough safety measures including surveillance cameras and several secure doors to get in to the hotel. Despite some street noise, typical for Rome, and a slightly delayed check-in process that required temporary luggage storage, the overall experience was very positive. Keep in mind that early check-in may not be available. We arrived in Rome at 8 a.m. so I would suggest getting there a bit later around 10 or so. I would happily stay here again.

Not a bad property but a bit tired. Thin walls and noisy neighbours. Shower was grubby and feeble. Four nights was okay but I wouldn’t choose to stay longer.

When I opened the door to the room I was immediately met by a foul odor that was confirmed to be the smell of a dead rodent by a man working in the shower of the next room. The day of checkin was extremely hot, over 90 degrees and the window was open and the air conditioner off. Having just walked from the train station I attempted to take a shower and found NO hot water even after letting the water run for 5 - 10 minutes. This is the roach motel.

La chambre a besoin d’un grand ménage. Il y a des éclaboussures sur les murs et de la moisissure dans la salle de bain sans compter les odeurs d’égouts. Nous devions garder la porte de la salle de bain fermer en tout temps. L’hotel est situé sur un grand boulevard passant donc on entend les voitures et ambulances. Points forts étant le prix et la proximité de tout. Les point touristiques sont à environs 25 min à pied de l’hotel.

Clean and comfy bed. The shower was really not good, bad smells came up frequently through the drains and there was mould on one of the bathroom walls. The windows in our room also opened directly to a bus stop on a busy road, which meant there was no privacy and constant noise. We got in fine but never once met anyone from the property in person. I expected more for the price.

Clean and newly renovated, we enjoyed our stay. There are only 5 rooms on the one floor and each room is unique. Ours was newly renovated and very clean, although very small. Check in was easy, someone greeted us and connected us to the owner or manager who spoke English and guided us through the process. We checked in during the morning which made it easier than nighttime check in I imagine. The shower was good altho no shelf to put shampoo & soap etc. The bed was comfortable (we had a queen size) but there was little room for our bags in the room. My biggest complaint was the noise as the hotel is right next to a busy street. I wore earplugs which solved the problem. The air conditioner was rather noisy so we opened the window, but with scaffolding on the outside of the building I was concerned for safety reasons. Luckily it’s a safe neighborhood so all was good. Convenient location, busy area, close to many sights. We would stay here again and highly recommend, also a good value.

Upon entering I noticed this area was very clean and the exterior was really nice and quiet, with security on staff for a nearby university. The staff was very accommodating, allowing me early check-in. The room was possibly a smoking room due to the lingering smell (room #3). The room itself had nice windows, but the location is next to a busy road with constant ambulances driving by and heavy traffic throughout the day. With the windows shut it was reduced. The room was updated and the shower was large. GREAT LOCATION.

Great location. Very easy to walk to most attractions just wear good walking shoes. Communication was really good. The area felt safe lots of great restaurants within 10 minutes. Self check in was easy and convenient. The room was lovely the only negative was the shower which was either really hot or cold but otherwise it was a great stay.

Location is very good. You easily access both the Vatican as well as the citys other must sees. The service is good in the sense that the landlord is quick to respond via WA. The physical precense/service at the stay is very limited though. Main road just outside the window, making it impossible to sleep through the night. The AC is pretty much out of service. It starts to drip after a while and must be shut off. The shower is very hard to use. Either freezing cold or burning hot making it practically useless. I'd go for an alternative a little bit further away ftom the main road parallell to the river Tibern. East to south east from this stay.

Overall, the experience was as-expected. Check-in was made easy by communication ahead of time. The size and condition of the room was good, and the bed was very comfortable. The street noise was very loud, but got better after I discovered how to close the shutters. Far from Metro, but close to bus, and central location if willing to walk ~20 minutes to Colosseum or Vatican. I would stay here again

The room looks to a busy street so it was very noisy all the time. The room smelled heavily of sewage. The cleaning lady was leaving the window open to change the air but that allowed mosquitos to come in so when we were coming back to sleep the room was full. There’s only some soap and a tiny package of shampoo that is barely enough for one shower. There are no many services, not even close to a luxury place, pretty much everything including the check in is self service

This hotel is in the perfect location for us. It was right in the middle of most of the “touristy” activities we wanted to do. About 15-20 minutes walk from all main points: Vatican, Trevi fountain, the Piazzas, shopping, etc. you’re less than a 10 minute walk from good food. People say to avoid the food near the tourist spots, but honestly we found it to usually be better than what we found further away. Our room in the hotel was very comfortable with AC, good water pressure, and a comfortable bed. It felt very safe. There were 3-4 steps to access the rooms-not a problem for us, just good to know. The only two downsides were the street outside the hotel was too noisy to sleep with the window open, but with it shut you didn’t hear much, and the water was difficult to get to the right temperature in the shower. Those two things were so small though, especially with everything else being wonderful! We would stay here again if coming back to Rome.

Repeatedly praised location within walking distance of the Vatican, Castel Sant’Angelo, and many central sights; buses nearby and plenty of dining around. A busy boulevard setting brings traffic noise for rooms facing the street.
