We enjoyed all the shopping and restaurants in the area. The staff were all very friendly and breakfast was yummy! We did not like that despite many times letting staff know air conditioning was not working and being told it would be fixed, on day 3 at checkout, it had not been fixed even though we had been told it would be. Also, we had to manually turn the cold water valve on and off every time we needed water or the toilet would continuously run. We were told this at check in and that, “it was fine and to just do this.”

It took a bit to figure out how to enter the hotel as there are no visible signs and they actually have 2 locations a few meters from each other. When I called the provided phone number i got the necessary instructions but not in a very friendly manner. Once we got to the reception the person there was very helpful and got us setup. The rooms are quite nice, they basically repurposed some floors from old buildings into hotel rooms, so the rooms are mixed with, what i'm assuming is peoples appartments and some offices. The location is great! you can walk to many key areas which was important for us. Their breakfast offering is basic but a good way to start and keep it simple.

Great stay

Wonderful stay. Hotel was quiet and clean. Breakfast was good. We enjoyed the connecting rooms for our larger family of 5. The Prati area east of the Vatican was convenient and walkable to most sights. (we stayed for early morning tickets to Vatican and it was less than a 10 minute walk). Hotel was very accommodating. Loved the extra tall front door!
