I returned last mont (November 2005) in the hotel after one year since the first time which was in april 2004. The prices have been simply doubled (now a double room costs 150 €, one year ago it costed 90 €) and the services are the same. The sisters are not yet managing the hotel, which is now probably managed by a profit company. For the same prices there are hotel in the area with best services, and cleaner.

We LOVED this little place. We found the staff at the front desk very polite and they spoke English quite well. The room and bathroom were clean and spacious. The hotel was wonderfully quiet. (Finally! an undistrubed night's sleep!) Air conditioning was available, although wasn't needed in May. A full breakfast by Italian standards was served: yogurt, pastries, fruit, cereal, juice and coffee. It was close enough to walk to the historic center sights and to the Vatican as well. I would say the walk took about 15 minutes. We also walked to Campo di Fiori and the Pantheon one evening. The neighborhood was great and authentic. There was a little pizza place around the corner that was WONDERFUL! At 100Euro per night in Rome during May, it was a steal. I would recommend a stay here without reservation. It was better than most of the places we stayed at on our entire trip in Italy.

just returned from 3 days in rome. we stayed here because of the location, and our first choice was booked.
this hotel was suprisingly quite nice, our room was large and very clean. the location is perfect we walked everywhere, except to the Vatican. the H bus will get you to and from the train station and cental rome.
the only draw back that I found here is that you can not expect the front desk to give you any help of any kind, the english is very minimal, they are polite but not friendly, maybe diffrent if you are fluent in Italian.
stay here if all you are looking for is a reasonalby inexpensive clean room with good location, and great beakfast. this was by far the largest room we stayed in while touring Italy, but the most aloof front desk staff. look for the english man who runs "the almost cormer book store" it is located near by on one of the little ally's. he is a great source of infomation and very friendly.

This is the second hotel I stayed at in Rome - the other one was over near Barberini. This one is preferrable. It was nice, clean and spartan and excellent for the price. Fabulous location for nightlife - away from the crowds of tourists (although enough of them around) and with lots of locals. Great base for being a tourist too. Felt safe for a single female traveller. Very cool in summer with air conditioning and tiled floors. Close to transport and major tourist attractions. Great area. Would stay here again if I go to Rome.
