We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights as part of a "build your own" vacation from Gate 1. The hotel was "as expected". Not in the city center, but not far from the metro station "Manzoni". It was very easy to get there from termini, we just had a hard time finding the hotel on th street. The location itself is not bad. Its about a 1mi walk to the Colusseum. There is a grocery store closeby, as well as a good resturant recommended by the staff called "the crazy sheep". Its calabrese food and very, very good! The staff was very friendly although we did not have much interaction with them. The complementary breakfast is kind of bleh...coffee and a roll, typical italian braskfast, just not what were used to! The rooms are very small but there was a huge closet. The beds were very hard, but not the worst Ive slept on in Europe. We had a small terrace right off our room which was nice but we didnt really use it. When youre sitting down you cant see the street anyway. I saw a few other posts mentioned road noise-we had no problem with this whatsoever. If youre on a budget this hotel is fine!

Traveling on a budget, this hotel met our needs for price and reviews. The staff is absolutely fantastic and the rooms are cozy and clean (note the shower is very, very small). I loved the hotel but the location left much to be desired. It's about a 20 minute walk from Termini station but not the the nicest of areas. You can easily walk to the station from the hotel and have the train drop you off at the Vatican and make your way down to the hotel--all in 1 day. Honestly, you can walk the entire city of Rome as my travel buddy and I did to save money. Just make sure you wear comfortable shoes. The closest major attraction is the Colosseum at about 20-30 minute walk away. Again, for the price, it was fine for our stay.

This is my second time to stay at this hotel. Although the hotel changed a bit since my last stay in 10 years, the entire experience was wonderful. The rooms are small overall, but clean and worked well for our purposes. Breakfast on the outside patio was a great experience. Worth the money compared to many other places we could have chosen instead of here.

The staff is amazing here, though the location is sub par. My room was not ready when I arrived, so they arranged for me to stay at a 3 star hotel across the street for the first night. The manager even helped me carry my luggage and walked me over there. Rooms are very clean. It even has a mini fridge!! Breakfast room is also very nice, with an outdoor wing.
