We booked this hotel as we wanted some where close to rome for sightseeing but with a pool. This hotel was a brilliant choice. The hotel itself is lovely, like a good 4* in this country. It has a lovely size pool which looks small but isn't at all (though no pool bar there is a bar inside hotel where you can get drinks but they are expensive). Staff were excellent and supplied us with map with all the sights on on our arrival. The hotel runs 2 shuttle bus's to 2 destinations all day from very early in the morning. The one bus drops you right outside the underground metro station which is easy to use and cheap! We caught these shuttle buses every day and only had problems on two days. One day we were getting an early bus and not everybody waiting got on the bus as it was full so had to wait 40 mins for the next one. The other time was the last bus home at 11, there was an ordally que formed when we arrived at the bus stop but when the bus arrived it was a bit of a free for all to get on and 4 people didn't fit and had to get taxis, this only happend the once though. As long as you're there 5/10 mintues before hand there are no problems. The only other problem is that the hotel bar and food is very very expensice (18 euros for a burger and chips, 14 euros for a toasted sandwhich on its on etc). We had breakfast included in the price of the room so bought stuff for our lunch when in rome the night before if we knew we were going to be staying around the hotel the next day. When in the hotel you cannot walk anywhere, only take the bus so you cannot walk to a shop or anything, you have to get supplies when you travel into rome. We also bought drinks in rome and put them in our mini bar to take to the pool the next day :)
Those bad points really were tiny things, i would deffinately book this hotel again, the pool was an absolute godsend! as we were there in july it was boiling!! we had to give up sightseeing one day by 11am as it was just too hot!!
