Very clean and nice. The shower wasn’t the best (very difficult to regulate temperature with low water pressure), but definitely not something too much of an issue. The location is perfect and the rooms are spacious. If we come back we will definitely stay here again!

Beautiful hotel! The room was perfect and very comfortable. I loved the neighborhood of Monti and proximity to the train. The rooftop bar sounded really fun but we didn’t go. If you want to go to bed early I suggest earplugs, they have live music and what sounds like a fantastic time on the roof

Love the area and the service was wonderful. From the moment they had someone pick us up from the airport to our departure we felt well taken care of. They even gave us a bottle of champagne for our honeymoon.

Great choice, small, clean and excellent service. The only downside for me was that it is a bit of a walk to all the main sites when you are visiting for a short time but all in all a good hotel.
