This hotel was decent. The rooms were comfortable, clean and nice. A lot of the guide books we read recommended against staying near the Rome train station, but this actually worked to our advantage. Rome was our last stop on our trip, so by the time we reached here, we had collected extra bags of souvenirs, so it was nice to walk just two blocks from the station to our hotel. We also had an early morning flight out of FCO airport, and being near the train station was key to catch the 3:45 a.m. Cotral bus to the airport. Catching the bus was free - the bus driver didn't end up charging us the 7 euro per person rate (versus paying a taxi 50 euros at that hour since no other form of transportation is open). Being near the station was great – this is the only place where both lines on the metro stop. A lot of the public buses also stop at the train station as well, making it a little easier to get around the city.

The hotel room had a television and fairly large closets to store things. Breakfast was sufficient – coffee and tea with a croissant and crackers. The hotel allows guests to use the internet for free, up to 30 minutes a day. The hot water did go out for a bit, but the hotel resolved it in about 30 minutes.

The only positive was that it was clean, they changed our towels daily.
Everything else was bad:
* I had the poorest breakfast in my life.They should be ashamed for serving that one.
* The waitress during breakfast was speechless and unpleasant.
* The bathroom was smelling AWFUL.
* The location was dirty and noisy. Good for being so close to Termini, but...
* The room was just too simple.

Too much money for this facilities!!!

The location of this hotel is the best part--we liked that it was close to the termini station. This was convenient when we were coming in from the airport as well as during our stay. Rome has an A and B line and the termini station is at the crossroads so you can basically go any way the underground goes without having to transfer. We didn't feel unsafe at all (we accidently missed the last metro car one night and had to walk all teh way back and felt way safer here than we would in our native San Francisco).

The room was definitely small (smaller than it appears on the website) but my husband and I didn't spend much time in the room anyway. It was a bit noisy but we got used to it by our second or third night.

The staff was very friendly and although the breakfast was minimal, they provided great service while you ate. They were very welcoming when we arrived and very accommodating with any requests. We stayed here at teh beginning and end of our trip. At the end, they had overbooked the hotel so they sent us across the street to another nicer hotel (Hotel Aphrodite?). While it was slightly inconvenient to have to move, the staff at both hotels made it as easy as possible.

My biggest concern when staying at a hotel is cleanliness and this hotel was definitely clean.

I stayed at the Hotel Scott House for 7 nights on April 2008 as a member of a student group. I think this hotel is very good for larger groups who don't intend to spend much time in their rooms - you can get really cheap prices at this hotel if you are ready to share a small room with many people.
I was staying in a room with 4 other girls and although there wasn't much space to move from our beds we were quite happy with our room.

The staff was very friendly and spoke good English. Breakfast wasn't wonderful, but it was sufficient and the staff in the breakfast room was very friendly and helpful, ready to pour you more coffee the minute you emptied your cup. Rooms were clean, new fluffy towels were brought every day and the sheets changed. Although the street where the hotel is is quite noisy our room, at least, was very quiet and peaceful.

The location is very good, maybe a minute from the main railway-, metro- and bus station Termini. The area is real tourist trap though, so be prepared to meet lots of street vendors, some of which might be quite insistent. I don't think the area was particularly seedy or dangerous though, as some have said in their reviews. I felt quite safe walking in the streets near the hotel with my girl friends, also late at night.

Downsides were the elevator (made horrible, scary noise and was very slow) and the thin walls - when we were standing in our shower we could hear our friends' conversation in the room next door.

Overall I think that this hotel was good value for money and I'll definitely stay there again when I next go to Rome.

For the cheap price you pay the rooms are fine,double room 2 beds ensure a little bit of space insead of a single room. Overheating meant had to sleep with windows open and its very noisy outside, but the central location next to Termini is why you come here, night buses are handy and good links to airport. Rooms vere clean bathroom functional but small, beds comfortable...even had wifi. If you are not going to spend much time in a hotel and more time with the marvellous splendours of Rome then this otel is perfect for you. Location is also a downpoint as the area is a area of frequent comings and goings and beggers and probably drug dealers, but this is a capital city...if you come from London, Paris this won't be a problem for you, vut might be if you come from a small town.
