A fabulous location to explore this wonderful city. The staff are attentive and really helpful - the attention to detail is excellent. We happened to mention on the first evening that we were going to walk to the Vatican in the morning and on returning for dinner there was a letter on the bed telling us what the weather would be and recommending somewhere for morning coffee.

We had the room near the staff room and the only downside was being woken quite early by doors banging as they readied the hotel for breakfast.

Overall this was great value in really central for walking all over the city or using the metro which is very close. We found some wonderful restaurants - mainly from following the Time Out guide which we tend to use as our bible wherever we go as its usually very accurate and makes good recommendations.

The Colloseum and Forum are amazing - don't miss then. Also the Vatican museums. For a relaxing coffee in the sun head to the Park above the spanish steps, which is not far from the hotel.

We arrived early before our room was ready and immediately offered breakfast which was a great buffet of juices, toast, cereal and pastries.

We booked a normal room but they put us in the 2 bedroom apartment over looking the main street (can be noisy at night, but this is Rome!) which was a great surprise.

We loved our stay, so central; the staff very helpful with directions and organising taxis. The free mini bar was also very appreciated after a long day pounding the streets.

Would definatley stay here again - thanks for a great visit!

I stayed here with my husband and our 6 year old son, when i was also 5 months pregnant. We had especially requested a family room, which we had been assured was an option when we booked. When we arrived we were given a tiny, narrow room with a reasoanble double bed in. However, the hotel's idea of a "family" room was to put a z-bed in the room for our son to sleep on. This tiny bed (even for a child) was grubby and very old, and took up what was left of the space of the room. The bathroom was very disapointing, with a broken toilet seat. And to add insult to injury, our room was right next to the staircase, and with thin walls, typical of these old hotels in Rome, was noisy as can be! When we asked to be moved to a different room, the older woman on duty that afternoon just grunted and told us that we'd paid a "internet rate" and that is what we should expect. I was livid, as i had stayed in Rome before, and this was not typical of Roman hospitality. Consequently we went about looking for an alternative place to stay. The internet facilities in the hotel are not true, as we had to travel around the nearby neighbourhood to find a internet cafe. This was an awful start to our holiday. I was so upset. When we returned to the hotel about 2 hours later, there was a young man on duty instead. When we told him we had decided to not stay and check out, and we explained why, he was not impressed that our complaint had nto been dealt with earlier, and moved us immediately to a room along the corridor. This room was a fraction larger than the first, but at least the bathroom was fully functional and cleaner. We also got the z-bed changed to a better one! To summarise, this hotel has a wonderful location, but the rooms are rubbish. The breakfast is ok, and one or two of the staff friendly. But DO NOT stay here with children, as you will all be stuffed into the same room, as there are NO FAMILY ROOMS. Also, this hotel lies about some rooms having a balcony. Their idea of a balcony, is a fire exit with a platform at the top of emergency stairs at the back of the hotel. For the money we spent i would not stay here again unless it was just my husband and i, and we wanted a easy place to crash. This is not a hotel, more like a B & B. There are many much nicer hotels in Rome for just the same money.

A little very nice hotel perfectly located right in the heart of Rome; near the spanish steps. You can`t hardly find a better location if you want to visit the historic Rome or even like to go shopping. Many Bars and Restaurants reachable in a short footwalk. Very friendly staff. The rooms are not to big , but really comfortable. What made us wunder- even it is located right in the middle of the town it is not to loud and we could sleep very good. Really a very nice, cute little Hotel.

Be prepared to drag your luggage up 2 flights of stairs (there is no lift). Our 'room' was very bizarre- about 30 metres long, with bedroom at the front and bathroom at the back. The floors creaked and the cupboard shook when you walked near it. It was very noisy at night as our room was looking over Via Frattina. The toilet made noisy sounds for hours after you flushed it. At breakfast next day, one of our plates had about half an inch of filthy dust on it.

The hotel is in a good location and the staff were reasonably helpful, but our room was bizarre. It was quite expensive for what we got, that may be due to its central location in Rome.
