Its location is the best, the rooms are clean and pretty. the building is a bit old but functional and very centric. The train station is 5 minutes away. I would stay here again without a doubt
The hotel was a convenient walk to the train station and Hop in Hop off bus. Good restaurants in area. Our room was updated and clean. There was a laundry close so we had our dirty clothes cleaned before going in our cruise ship. Sharon at reception spoke very goodEnglish and organized our shuttle to the cruise ship terminal. Nothing fancy but had everything we needed for our stay. I would stay again.

Location was Great. A/c wasn't cold..Drain in the shower was backed up.. little refrigerator didn't work.
Easy, safe (10mins) walk from main train station to hotel. Check-in was easy. Sharon is a gem, especially re booking tours and shows. Office is untidy but staff are attentive. Hotel has a lift. Room was big, comfortable, quiet, refrigerator. Firm bed, hot water, A/C. Great central location, safe locality with really good cafes and restaurants. Bueno!
Front staff very helpful. Hotpot in room. But no cups or glasses available, not even instant coffee or tea. No airport shuttle, they call a taxi for you. No breakfast available. Sewer backup into our room. Ask to have the fixed but did not happen
We were very excited for our stay, judging from the photos and convenient location to the train station. However, we were very disappointed with the condition of our room as well as a few other discrepancies.
First of all, the photos were very deceiving. The floor of the shower was caving in, and the water was leaking out of the sides, making our bathroom floor a wet mess. Not only was the cleanliness of our room disappointing, but we felt very unsafe as the door would NOT LOCK on the first evening of our stay. We had to leave our door unlocked when we left for dinner, while was highly concerning, considering we are 3 20 year old women staying in one of the only rooms on the first floor.
On day two, we were successful in getting the door to lock once we left for the day. However, when we returned, the door would not unlock. When approaching the front desk about this issue, they got mad at us for "locking the wrong door," when we were not giving any instructions on which door to lock upon our arrival. We were left sitting outside of our room waiting for them to unlock it for about 45 minutes.
To not have your doors unlock is one thing, but to make the guest feel like it is their fault is inhospitable and disappointing coming from a well reviewed hotel, or so we thought.
Overall, if you are looking for a safe, cleanly stay, this hotel is not for you.
The hotel was good, the room was very good very comfortable, i was very surprised, and i loved staying there, and the staff was very kind! The hotel is in the center of room, you can see everything on walk, and it’s a 3 minutes close from de termini station, so if you need transport, it’s very good! Also the reception is open 24 hours, you can arrive anytime!! I recommend this hotel very much, if i ever go to rome again, i will book again! You have everything you need near the hotel (restaurants, pharmacy, supermarket, tabacco shop, cafes) i really enjoyed staying there :)
just wouldn’t suggest staying here if your from out of country . Fyi no AC in the rooms

Disappointed
The room was very clean. Very sparsly appointed and bare bones of a hotel. Elevator didn't always work, hot water was not always available, shower leaked, mattress was bumby and thin.
didn’t enjoy the stay, hotel looks like a construction zone, everything was broken and needed to be fix. Spend one night out of the 3night for my own safety.

Good staffs wi fi is slow elevator is not working properly and noise
This hotel is conveniently located close to Roma Termini. What was disappointing for us was that the hotel amenities (on the website) include "Airport transfer." When I called from the airport, thinking that the hotel provided transportation, I was told that we had to arrange our own. Also, the website says that continental breakfast is available for a surcharge. We were disappointed to find out that no breakfast was available.
