Had stayed in 3 star hotel in Florence which was fabulous and a 4 star hotel in Perugia which was even better so expected something similar in Rome - especially as the Hotel Tirreno was the most expensive of the three hotels during our holiday.
However, while the location is OK, it is central albeit up a dingy side street, and 5 minutes from the train station the hotel itself was a grave disappointment. The room was so small I was considering leaving my bag on the grimmy balcony as there was no room for it in the room bar on the bed or in the bathroom! The walls were paper thin and the TV channels worked intermittently.
The breakfast was pathetic to say the least with corn flakes and pre-packed European desserts. I had to ask several times each morning for a bowel for the cereal and the coffee was served in a silver saucepan which was somewhat bizarre! If there is nowhere else stay here but in the UK this hotel would be a one sstar at best. The plus, bathroom fine and Irish bar in the street does a good pint of Guiness!
Don't know how the last review gave it 5 stars. The reviewer must have been in prison and considered the room in the hotel 5 stars when compared with his previous accomodation!
Won't go back to the Tirreno if I got a free trip,
