The staff was warm and welcoming. We had opt for the hotel breakfast and it was a wonderful spread of both hot and cold options. Of note, if you were to take breakfast, you might want to sit further away from the kitchen door in the back as there was a strong smell of chemicals that wafted over every time the door opened. The hotel is located about a 30 minute walk away from all the tourist areas so it is in a quieter part of town. However there are bus/metro spots nearby were were only ~10 minute walk away so it was still very convenient. There are a lot restaurants nearby (both ethnic, Italian, and family-owned) so definitely worth exploring the nearby areas especially if you want something to eat outside the more touristly areas.

Room was on the small side but expected for Rome, I suppose. Staff were friendly and accommodated all of our requests. Breakfast room was small and limited selection but staff was friendly. It is a good location and located quite close to Termini.

Breakfast was great, it’s just boring eating same thing after 2/3 days .. Antonio is your guy and the Guy from Egypt too.. loved the rooftop This place is worth it .. if you’re like me who scooped the entire Expedia and booking for a hotel that would be worth it for my Rome vacay, this checked all the boxes and more. I would stay here again Facilities are modern, neat, quiet .. it was worth it.
It was a 6 mins walk to our fave Roma restaurant- La Famiglia

Excellent housekeeping. Room was spacious, but lacked storage space for clothes and luggage. Lighting for makeup was lacking. Great hair dryer and toiletries. The breakfast and breakfast staff were excellent. Plenty of choices hot and cold buffet. Front desk staff were very welcoming. Rooftop bar area was a nice feature. Location was easy to get around and the 63 and 490 buses were right up the street. Great family vacation

Overall it’s a nice hotel. The breakfast was convenient, the area is walkable to restaurants, and gelato places. The breakfast staff was wonderful as was the cleaning service people. We sound the front desk people to be not as friendly but it could be because we were Americans. A solid choice for hotel stays.

The bed was horrible, we could feel every spring. We asked for a different room and were told each bed was the same-so no accommodation. The room was very small. The air conditioning was great. The food/breakfast was great.

Os funcionários do café da manhã são impacientes nada simpáticos, meu esposo não tomava café da manhã porque nao se sentia bem vindo pela equipe do café da manhã, parece que eles queriam que fôssemos embora logo, passavam um ar de preguiça e que não queriam estar ali. Desculpas foi oque sentimos
